FAQs

General

What is a PurlinMaster?

A PurlinMaster is a versatile overhead installation pole that lets you set purlin clips and wrap ceiling wire in a single step while working from the ground. Its patented head design allows you to place the clip and wrap the wire without needing to pre-wrap anything beforehand.

What makes the PurlinMaster different from a standard lag pole?

Unlike basic poles that install only eye lag screws, the PurlinMaster handles both purlin clips and ceiling wire installation in one step. It also accepts interchangeable plug-ins for tasks like installing threaded rod hangers, hex bits, or eye lag screws.

Where is the PurlinMaster typically used?

Trades use it in commercial, industrial, and institutional buildings where overhead fastening is required. It’s designed for tight areas, stairwells, and places where lifts or ladders are unsafe or impractical.

Compatibility and Use

Which fasteners work with the PurlinMaster?

The tool installs purlin clips, wraps ceiling wire, and accepts plug-ins for various fastener types. Available plug-ins allow you to use hex drivers, threaded-rod adapters, wire-plug assemblies, and eye lag installers.

What drill do you need for the PurlinMaster?

The pole works with any standard 3⁄8" or 1⁄2" drill. The drill provides the rotation needed for the interchangeable plug-ins.

Does the PurlinMaster require pre-wrapping ceiling wire?

No. The patented head holds the purlin clip while the pole wraps the wire around it in one step, reducing installation time.

Can the PurlinMaster install eye lag screws?

Yes. You can attach the interchangeable eye lag adapter to install standard eye lag screws overhead.

Is the PurlinMaster compatible with Lagmaster® Plus plug-ins?

Yes. The system uses Lagmaster® Plus plug-ins, which allow you to install a wide range of overhead fasteners with the same pole body.

Performance and Safety

How high can the PurlinMaster reach?

Models vary in length, with extended heights ranging from roughly 5' to over 23', depending on the version. This allows installers to work safely from the ground in most commercial spaces.

Does the tool improve jobsite safety?

Yes. By keeping installers on the ground instead of on ladders or lifts, it reduces fall risk and speeds up overhead work.

What is the pole made of?

The PurlinMaster is built from black anodized aircraft-grade aluminum. This makes it lightweight, durable, and suitable for daily jobsite use.

Is any special training needed?

No formal training is required, but users should understand how to load the plug-ins, position the pole, and operate the drill safely.

Can one person operate the PurlinMaster?

Yes. The design allows a single installer to place purlin clips and wrap ceiling wire without assistance.
