Multi-Purpose Trucker Tool – Leverage Bar, Tire Thumper & 5th Wheel Release

The one tool every trucker, yard hand and container handler should keep in the cab. The OPNBar Multi-Purpose Safety Tool combines a shipping container leverage bar, tire thumper, 5th wheel hitch release and more in a single 3 lb steel bar, made in the USA.

Everything It Does

• Container and trailer door opener: a door latch handle extender for stiff, rusted or iced-over doors
• 5th wheel hitch release: pull the release handle from a standing position
• Tire thumper: a quick sound check on tire inflation during your pre-trip inspection
• Container seal breaker: extra leverage on container seals
• Cam pin compressor: leverage for compressing cam pins
• Headache rack tool: reach and leverage around the headache rack

Ergonomic Design

The OPNBar is designed around the way your body moves when you open a stiff container door. It extends the door latch handle, so you can use a steady pull from your legs and body weight instead of jerking the handle with your wrists and back. Watch the OPNBar ergonomic trucker tool in use:

FAQ

What should truck drivers look for in a multi-purpose tool?
Look for one tool that covers the jobs you do every day: trailer and container doors, 5th wheel release and tire checks. OPNBar does all three, plus seal breaking and cam pin compression, in one 3 lb bar.

Is this the same as the Persuader Bar?
It comes from the same maker. See The Original Persuader Bar, or compare all models in our full lineup.
