Handle your beehive frames with confidence and precision using our Heavy-Duty Stainless Steel Frame Grip. This essential beekeeping tool is engineered for durability, ergonomic comfort, and a secure hold, making it indispensable for commercial beekeepers and a top-tier product for any beekeeping equipment distributor. Its robust construction and intelligent design ensure a long service life and improved efficiency in the apiary.
Professional Design and Unmatched Functionality
This Frame Grip is constructed entirely from high-grade stainless steel, offering significant advantages in strength, hygiene, and longevity. The unique scissor-action design provides a superior lifting experience compared to standard plier-style grips.
- 100% Stainless Steel Construction: Every component, from the handles to the jaws and rivets, is made from corrosion-resistant stainless steel. This makes the tool incredibly strong, impervious to rust from weather or hive moisture, and exceptionally easy to clean and sanitize—a critical feature for preventing the spread of disease between hives.
- Superior Scissor-Action Mechanism: The pantograph-style (scissor) linkage provides a powerful and positive grip on the frame's top bar. When you squeeze the handles, the force is applied evenly, ensuring the jaws close securely. This design allows for a straight, vertical lift, which is crucial for preventing the accidental rolling and crushing of bees between adjacent frames.
- Ergonomic Dual-Tube Handle: The wide, two-bar handle offers a comfortable and stable grip, reducing hand fatigue during long days in the apiary. This design promotes a more natural lifting posture, giving the user excellent control over heavy frames laden with honey or brood.
- Spring-Loaded for One-Handed Use: An integrated spring automatically returns the jaws to the open position when you release the handle. This simple but critical feature allows for fast, efficient one-handed operation—grip, lift, release, and re-grip the next frame with ease.
