Overview
The Bigglugg Original Belt Tool with Belt Hook BL1 is a tool holder that clips onto any tool belt or waist belt and carries a cordless drill, nail gun or staple gun while you work. It is the original Bigglugg design, fully adjustable to suit most cordless drills and pneumatic fastening tools, and it works for both left handed and right handed users.
Keeping the tool on your hip rather than on the ground or under an arm means both hands stay free for climbing, carrying sheet and steadying yourself on a pitched roof. It also keeps the drill out of the grit and weather, and stops it being kicked over when you put it down. For a roofer moving between stations all day, having the driver always in reach removes a lot of wasted walking.

What You Need to Complete the Job
Pair the belt tool with leather rigger gloves and safety glasses for everyday site work, and browse the Metal Roofing Tools range for the fastening and cutting tools the belt holder will carry. The holder is a convenience tool for light to medium loads, so on very heavy machines use a proper belt pouch instead.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the belt tool hold all cordless drills?
The holder is fully adjustable, so it grips most cordless drills from compact drivers up to full size machines. The vinyl coated arms wrap the body of the drill and hold it firmly. Most modern pistol grip drills sit well in the holder; if the tool is very long or carries an oversized battery, test the fit at ground level before relying on it at height.
Can left handed users wear it?
Yes. The Bigglugg belt tool is designed for both left and right handed users. The belt hook sits on the belt either way and the tool can be positioned to suit your working hand, so there is no dedicated left or right version to look for.
How much weight can it carry?
The stated working limit is 4.5kg. That covers most cordless drills, nail guns and staple guns. Heavier tools should be carried in a dedicated pouch or hoisted separately rather than hung from the belt, so the holder does not open or strain the belt while you move.
