T&T Tools Top Popper Manhole Hook – Heat Treated Manhole Hook (Rotated Handle, Alloy Steel, 36-Inch)

You won't ever need another one, unless someone steals it.

Archeologists will find this Thousands of years from now.

I deliver fuel for a living and there's no lid that I can't open...

Enables me to remove the man hole cover

Perfect multipurpose hook with a long reach. I keep it with me in my vehicle after that one time I needed to open a drain gate to look for a cat that I thought was trapped, but didn't have the tools. It's good quality and USA-made.

Works great for removing the storm drain cover in our driveway to drain out our koi pond when it is being cleaned.

The picture makes it look as if the point is very sharp. It's not. I bought it to lift large, heavy pieces of wood, and thus wanted something that would allow me to occasionally drag really heavy pieces. That means some penetration of the wood, itself. This will not accomplish that. It's rock solid, and I'm sure it'll work for some jobs. But for what I wanted...not so much.

I had my previous manhole lid hook for 20+ years until someone with sticky fingers decided to take it. This hook is good quality and does the job. Like any manhole/drainage lids if it’s rusted shut you’ll have to beat it with a hammer but regardless this hook get a good grip on the lid and lifts it up and off.
