Tool is WELL MADE. - This is a review for the Long Reach Belt Hook Tool for Serpentine Belts. The item is nicely made. It is approximately 25.5 inches long. Description lists 29". ( I measured mine twice It is at most 25.5" long) The handle is 4 " of that length. The 2 prongs are about 3/4" on center. The open space between the prongs is approximately 1/2". The prongs are approximately 1-1/8th inch long. The distal or end prong is formed from bending the main rod. The prong closer to the handle is probably welded to the main rod. The rod has a good rigidity and a little flex. It may be 1/4" rod. I did not measure with a micrometer. All surfaces are finished well, smooth with no burrs on metal surfaces. The rod is coated and so far with use has not been scratched. The plastic handle is a vibrant easy to see. orange. My use is different. My little miniature dachshund was born blind. She is a double dapple. She is a "rescued" dog that was in hte county APL for over 6 months because nobody wanted a blind, beautiful and sweet dog. She is small maybe only 6 pounds but needed a way to be on a lead for walking. She needed a lead that would allow me to gently direct her into a forward path of travel. She wears a a harness, not just a dog collar. The harness has a handlers loop that is sewn to the back of the harness (runs along the dog's spine). It is 1" wide piece of nylon webbing tape. I can grab hat harness loop to safely lift her or to pick her up with. I attach the pronged end of the belt tool into this loop. I modified the plastic display hanger to essentially trap the harness web loop into the pronged end of the tool. This rod has allowed me to walk with her. I can guide her and keep her on the forward course. I can gently lift her front quarter to let know and warn her that she has an obstruction in front of her. It supports her weight as i lift her over a curb, so she will not stumble. If i had a larger dog that was well mannered, i suspect this would work as well. THE TOOL IS DEFINITELY STONG ENOUGH TO PULL OR MANIPULATE A SERERNTINE BELT INTO POSITION. It is VERY well made. The price goes UP and it goes Down. I purchased this item for $6.29 plus tax. in June 2023. The seller and shipper were both "desertcart". I hope you find it for less. If this review is helpful, please give it a thumbs up. Thank you and please Adopt dogs that are disabled. They are wonderful, sweet pets. Review: Perfect for working to remove and replace automotive belts - I purchased this after one of my mentors in the automotive industry showed me how well this thing helped out when removing and replacing belts in tight spots. Couldn't remember what brand he had, or if he'd made his, so I looked for one of my own, and asked others if they'd used something like this before. No one seemed to know what I was talking about, and my mentor was now at a better location, so I couldn't ask him. Found this on desertcart, and it looked almost exactly like my buddy's belt hook. I bought two, so I could give one to a friend, and this product has been a lifesaver! I've had it over a year now, and co-workers like to borrow it when they're doing belt jobs. It works well and fits in tight spots, it was really affordable, and I love they way it looks and that the handle is a bright color, so it stands out when I drop it. It's strong with just a bit of flex which works great.
