Product Details

Plug Tugs are simple but effective pull handles that make unplugging electrical appliances easier for people with reduced grip strength, arthritis or limited finger dexterity. Fitted to the plug, each retractable handle provides a convenient finger loop that offers better leverage, reducing the effort needed to remove plugs from sockets, particularly where plugs are tightly grouped together.

Ideal for everyday household appliances such as kettles, vacuum cleaners and hair dryers, Plug Tugs also help organise entertainment and office equipment. Each pack includes a selection of labels, stickers and a marker pen, allowing plugs to be clearly identified without tracing cables back to the appliance. This makes them especially useful for visually impaired users or anyone managing multiple electrical devices.

Key User Benefits

  • Makes removing plugs easier with less grip strength
  • Finger loop provides extra leverage
  • Helps identify plugs quickly using included labels
  • Ideal for people with arthritis or limited dexterity
  • Useful for home, office and entertainment equipment
  • Quick and easy to fit to most standard plugs

Product Specifications

  • Pack quantity: 10 Plug Tugs
  • Includes: Labels, stickers and marker pen

    My wife has rheumatoid arthritis and she rates your plug tugs highly. It's a simple idea but helps her enormously.
