Why TwisTarp?
Linemen work with loads daily that can weigh hundreds to thousands of pounds. Why should they have to move it manually?
Used correctly, a TWISTARP helps eliminate awkward work positions and high repetitive forces. No more bending over to shovel dirt or making trips up and down ditches. It does the heavy lifting for you, meaning less strains and sprains, physical exhaustion, and lost time from dangerous accidents.
Trust us, we’ve done the math! To show you just how much we can help, we’ve provided a table of weights for common loads that linemen work with:
