    I think to make it lighter. I didn't see any mention of it at all.

    I've got something like that. I took a extendable handle and put a screw on paint roller on it. Took the roller off. Works well for pushing and pulling whatever

    don't know , never used it, but a 4 inch strapslides right in it.


    I unscrew the attachment and a chain hook fits in the end, to be poked thru . the biggest problem I have is when I put it down guys will come it, thinking it belongs to the place we are loaded at, lol. I should start stocking them, I could have sold a hundred by now.

    I just ordered one thanks for the link Skateboardman.

    I ordered the whole set up with the extendable handle. The black "nuts" you use to tighten the extendable broom handle I have are to big to fit between something I regularly haul. The handle on that strap pusher looks thin enough for my application.
