Developed with the specialized needs of firefighters in mind
by an experienced Texas firefighter, the LoneStar
Piglet is an innovative, yet beautifully simple fire-service device. Read
on for more details.
Labeled as the younger brother of the LoneStar Pig, the
Piglet represents the evolution of modern firefighting: It combines the proven
attributes of the two working ends of the flat-head and the pick-head axe to
form a different, unique shape. Weighing only six pounds, the Piglet’s
strengths lie in its versatility, as it is capable of handling a number of
fire-related tasks, such as roof ventilations, forcible entry, breaching walls,
and breaking locks, among many others.
Its 28-inch handle is useful for pulling down drywall,
shiplap, lathe and plaster, and trim. In addition, the Piglet’s Nupla
fiberglass handle is manufactured using a patented process of pultruding
millions of fiberglass strands combined with resin to ensure its strength and
durability.
