Key Features
Overview
The Klein Tools Tool Rig with Suspenders, 23 Pockets (55896) is a complete tool belt and suspender system. This is a tool rig designed for electricians, carpenters and other trades who carry a heavy load of hand tools all shift and want that weight on their shoulders instead of their lower back.
The padded suspension system is the reason to choose a rig over a plain belt. Padded shoulder supports and a padded belt distribute weight evenly, which helps minimize lower back strain on long days. It is fully adjustable to fit waists from 30" to 52" (76.2 to 132.1 cm).
Storage is generous: large pouches with 23 pockets and loops keep tools and materials within reach. Klein includes dedicated spots for the things you reach for most: a cell phone pocket, a tape measure pocket, a tape loop and a headlamp bracket.
The rig is built from durable 1680d weave material with reinforced stitching, and the 2" (5.1 cm) belt uses double-thick construction to stand up to harsh jobsite conditions. In black and orange, the assembled rig measures about 23" x 28" x 7" (58.4 x 71.1 x 17.8 cm) and weighs 6 lb (2.7 kg) empty.
Who should buy it: electricians and carpenters carrying a full belt every day, apprentices setting up their first serious rig, and anyone whose back has started complaining about a loaded tool belt.

Pro Tip
Set the suspenders so the belt sits on your hips, not your waist, with the heaviest tools toward your back pockets. When the shoulders take the weight and the load sits close to your center, the rig feels a lot lighter by the end of the day.
