Part 2 - Toolbelts systems Off the Shelf

Lucy Durtnall |

There are so many combinations out there, how do you know where to start?

Break it down. If you have read our Belt Blog then you will have your start point and also considered our first questions.

What work do you generally do? What's your every day carry?

Broadly the job type and the amount you carry are relative, there will always be exceptions but in our experience these groups below are very common.

Here is a general guide and intro to the DiamondBack Toolbelts and Badger Toolbelts Off-the-Shelf Rig range.

All DiamondBack rigs are available in either Right or Left handed. Every pouch, accessory and belt is available to buy separately so you can also build your own. 

Badger Toolbelts has a range of toolbelt systems which is designed for most phases of construction from framing to finishing work. 

Do you do a mix of 1st /Roofing and 2nd fix /finishing work?

You want a rig that is a mid-size, one that will allow enough carry for fixings & hand tools for 1st fix without being too big and bulky on 2nd fix site work.

Best seller DiamondBack Toolbelts Artisan X, has mid-size pouches. With a Tempo Belt that will give you good back support but also provide the sufficient support for carrying those size pouches when loaded up.


Or mainly 1st fix/ Roofing?

For this work, you are probably looking for a good capacity for carry and also a good amount of back support to help distribute the weight of the carry too. 

Also check out the suspenders info below as they are often teamed with larger carry rigs. 
 
Most popular system for larger capacity is DiamondBack Toolbelts Seven X 

 

Badger toolbelts offer comfort and ease of use. We offer both the Carpenter and Framer set which would be ideal for working in the 1st fix phase. 

Badger Carpenter Toolbelt Set a good all rounder for 1st and 2nd fix

Do you do 2nd Fix/ Finishing work?

DiamondBack Chopo X is a lighter weight carry for working in smaller spaces belt but with plenty of organisation.
