A genuine OPNBar for less. This reconditioned Version 2 shipping container leverage bar costs $68.99, compared with $84.99 new. It gives the same rugged performance for opening container doors, releasing 5th wheels and checking tires. Made in the USA.
What "Reconditioned" Means
These units were customer returns or lightly used as demos. Each one is:
- Inspected: checked for full function and strength
- Cleaned and refurbished: restored to working condition
- Tested to meet our working standards before it ships
Any cosmetic wear is minor and does not affect performance.
Ergonomic Design
Joint-friendly container access: the OPNBar's angle and handle are designed to keep your wrists in a more natural position and let your larger muscle groups do the work, to help reduce the load on your joints when you open and close container doors.
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:
What It Does
- Door latch handle extender: opens and closes stiff, rusted or iced-over container and trailer doors
- 5th wheel release hook: unhooks the tractor without bending under the trailer
- Tire thumper: a quick inflation check on your walk-around
Who It's For
- Owner-operators who want an OPNBar without paying full price
- Fleets adding spare bars to trucks or yards
- First-time buyers who want to try OPNBar before outfitting a team
Product Details
- Tire thumper: properly inflated tires make a loud, sharp thud. Poorly inflated tires make a dull thud.
- Fifth wheel release hook: releases the fifth wheel without reaching under the trailer, which helps keep grease, oil and road grime off your clothes.
- Anti-corrosive: designed for high-pressure tolerance. Ratings for heated and non-heated tools vary.

I got a shipping container to move with, and I couldn't close it for the life of me. I got my two sons to help, and they couldn't do it. This tool made it easy! Well worth the money to buy it.

A must have!
Verified Purchase
I have had a sea container for over two years and have always dreaded opening and closing the large heavy doors. The latch handles are almost more than I can handle. Now that I have the handle extender I have no problem opening and closing the doors. If you have one or more sea containers, this handle is a must have device in my opinion!

It works excellently!
Verified Purchase
I am small woman with 3 conexes on my cabin property. The ease of opening is variable at best. Some handles I couldn't get open at all, some open easily. This bar solves the problem. It works and is easy to use. I hated spending this much money on it, but it was worth every penny.

Testimonials
As a practicing Chiropractor, I feel that this is an invaluable tool to prevent work injuries, especially of the shoulder, wrist, and back. Its ergonomic design was well thought out. I am impressed.
As an Occupational Therapist, I think an ergonomic tool like this is so important to prevent work injuries, promote employee retention, improve performance without compromising safety, and enhance job satisfaction. Prioritizing employee safety should be vital in the workplace and a product like this was truly designed with that in mind.
