General Tools 70396 Lighted Mechanical Pickup Led

Product Description

The GENERAL TOOLS 70396 is a lighted mechanical pickup tool designed for retrieving dropped fasteners, small parts, and tools in tight or poorly lit spaces. A built-in white LED shines directly onto the work area, eliminating the need to hold a separate light source while working. The 24-inch flexible shaft bends and maneuvers through confined areas such as engine compartments, behind cabinetry, or beneath flooring. The corrosion-resistant black finish adds durability for repeated use in demanding field conditions. Electricians, HVAC techs, plumbers, and general trades rely on this type of tool during service calls where dropped hardware would otherwise be difficult to locate and recover.

The 70396 is suited for residential and light commercial service work where access is restricted and ambient lighting is limited. Common applications include working inside electrical panels, mechanical chases, crawl spaces, and equipment rooms. The flexible shaft reaches into spaces where rigid tools cannot, and the integrated LED removes the need for a second person or a clamped light to illuminate the retrieval zone.
