T&T Tools Mighty Probe

-
The common run-off-the-mill soil probe is undeniably useful, but the Mighty Probe by T&T Tools goes the extra mile. The Mighty Probe can be considered to be T&T Tools’ flagship product, and for good reason. While the company produces a range of other probes, manhole cover hooks, and other tools, the Mighty Probe offers protection against electric shock and thus helps guarantee the safety of its operators. This, along with other features, makes the Mighty Probe something worth looking into.

The Mighty Probe: Protection from Hazards

Job sites tend to have hazards -- it’s an almost-unavoidable part of various industries and jobs. These hazards include working at a certain height, certain moving objects, excessive noise, fire, harmful fumes and vapors, chemicals, and many more. One particular hazard that various professionals and workers have to watch out for, however, is the presence of an electrical current in specific spots in the ground.

All these hazards are what personal protective equipment and safety protocols are for. These PPE and protocols are certainly effective, and have doubtlessly saved many lives, but some enhancement won’t hurt. Enter the Mighty Probe. The Mighty Probe isn’t meant to provide 100% protection by itself, but it is meant to enhance the protection that other equipment and protocols provide against electric shock. It’s worth noting that a third-party laboratory tested the Mighty Probe to 50,000 volts under ASTM F711-89 testing procedures, and a major utility company’s commercial laboratory services also tested it up to 45,000 volts (both dry and 48-hour water-soaked).

Using the Mighty Probe

Soil probes are meant to be inserted into the soil for the purpose of taking soil samples. In certain kinds of areas, the probe can incidentally come into contact with an energized wire. This can be highly unsafe, and while it can be avoided, it’s best to prepare for the possibility. By using the Mighty Probe, you’ll be able to enjoy additional protection at all times. Even so, however, it’s important to remember that there’s a right way to use the Mighty Probe, under the right conditions.

Of course, the Mighty Probe comes with accessories that enhance its effectiveness and efficiency. A slide adapter can allow the probe to work as a mini slide hammer probe, and you can also use a coupler to extend the rod. Other accessories, such as slider adapter stoppers, couplers, and ball nose tips are also available and suitable for use with the Mighty Probe. These accessories are sold separately, but they add a lot more dimension to probe’s functionality.
