Finally...a safe, easy way to grip, lift, and carry drywall, Plywood and other cumbersome sheet goods!
I have tried a great many devices designed to make it easier to carry sheet goods like plywood, drywall, MDF, or particle board, and while some were definitely better than others, none of them measured up to this innovative carrier. Most carriers require the user to stoop down, slip the carrier under the sheet goods, them stand up without pulling one’s arm out of the socket. The Gorilla Gripper grabs the sheet material from the edge and automatically clamps tight as the sheet is raised. Once you try it, you’ll quickly find other uses for the Gorilla Gripper. For example, pulling plywood out of a vertical storage rack, or lifting sheathing into position on a roof. I find that sheets are much easier to carry with the load pushing down on my palm, through the padded grip, than when the load is trying to tear my fingers off the grip of more conventional sheet carriers. The patented Gorilla Gripper has a 3/8” to 1-1/8” capacity, and is made in the USA of aircraft grade aluminum.

      Comments about Gorilla Gripper:

      The gorilla gripper could of added 10 years to my health had I owned one 20 years ago. However now that I'm 55, It is concievable I will have a few more years of lifting plywood up ladders and drywall into basements with relitive ease.I highly recommend this tool. Even if you only use it 3 X's a year,get one, or two like I did.

                We use this product in a busy production environment. I'm tasked with insuring the safety of my employees and I think this product makes picking up sheet goods and doors a snap. The product is perfect for move products from the truck or rack to the job site.
