Firefighter, Channellock team up on Rescue Tool

By Keith Gushard

“It’s a great selling story for us when we’re out in the field,” Jonap said of Gillingham’s idea for the tool.

“We’ve gotten a lot of positive feedback,” he added, noting about 2,000 to 3,000 of the tools already have been shipped.

There is no set target for sales, Jonap said, but “we want to sell as many as we can make.”

Both Gillingham and Channellock are hoping for a hit.

“It will be very good for both Channellock and myself,” Gillingham said with a smile.

However, he may not be done inventing just yet.

“There are a couple more ideas I’m going to work with Channellock on,” he said, but declined to elaborate.

Keith Gushard can be reached at 724-6370 or by e-mail at kgushard@meadvilletribune.com.

What is it?

The Rescue Tool combines six essential needs into one tool, eliminating the weight and bulk of carrying multiple devices. A drop-forged, high-carbon steel tool, its specific features include:

- Beveled plier head with aggressive cross-hatched teeth that twist and pull

- Laser heat-treated cutting edges easily cut anything from electrical wires to battery cables

- Tapered pry wedge to open doors and windows
