About the Electrician Tool Pouch, 12 Pocket

  • Twelve pockets Hand tools, fasteners and small parts each get a pocket of their own.
  • Dedicated holders Holders take a hammer, tape measure, electrical tape, flashlight and your keys.
  • Riveted stress points Heavy-duty rivets reinforce the spots that take the most pull under load.
  • Oil-tanned leather The leather stays flexible enough for daily wear on the jobsite.

When you pull wire and set boxes, you reach for the same few tools every few minutes. This pouch gives each one a fixed spot. Strippers, screwdrivers and pliers go in the pockets, and a roll of electrical tape rides on its own holder. The tape measure, flashlight, keys and hammer each hang where your hand learns to find them.

It is made from oil-tanned leather that flexes with daily wear. Heavy-duty rivets reinforce the stress points where a loaded pouch pulls hardest. There are 12 pockets in all, plus holders for a hammer, tape measure, electrical tape, flashlight and keys. The pouch hangs from the work belt you already wear.

Pick another model if

This is a pouch, not a full rig, so it needs a belt. The 960-XL Work Belt or the Toolrider Gel Foam Padded Tool Belt will carry it. New leather is stiff at first, and tight front pockets loosen as it breaks in. Framers who carry nails by the handful will find the Carpenter's Suede Pouch easier to dig through.

Use and care

  • Work a leather conditioner into the pouch a few times a year.
  • Let a wet pouch dry at room temperature, never on a heater.
  • Clean out metal shavings and wire clippings so they do not wear the pocket seams.

    Great Quality Product!

    I'm sorry the picture I had must've gotten erased by one of the kids, sadly. This is a great tool pouch from an apprentice to a professional, best for journeyman and electricians but can be used in any field such a plumbing, carpentry and more! It's definitely sturdy, made with great quality materials and the seam is sewn amazingly sturdy. It's a really good budget for the price and I can see it's going to last for some time to come, I used my belt I had but you may wanna consider purchasing a belt if you are so one or want the whole outfit look new meaning took pouch and belt. I actually plain on purchasing 2 more of these 1 for my dad and 1 for my brother who do a little bit of it all. So it's perfect for them. Again guys I'm sorry I lost the pic showing the amount it holds which is surprising itself!

    A professional's choice! High-quality leather that lasts.

    This electrician's pouch is built to last. My husband has been using it for work, and the quality of the leather and construction is top-notch. It's sturdy, holds all the essential tools securely, and shows no signs of wearing out even after constant use.It's a great feeling when a replacement part or accessory actually improves your workflow. This was a smart purchase that saved us time and money by avoiding more expensive alternatives that don't last half as long. Truly a professional-grade product!

    Stiff, but good

    This is a nice pouch, holds a good amount of tools, rugged and good looking! Cons are this thing is stiff! So stiff it is actually painful and super uncomfortable to wear by the time the day is over. It's hard to fit things in the front pockets and pull them out without pulling the rest of whatever is in that pocket out. The key holder has broken off already, and the tape measurer ring came crooked, the hammer loop is stiff and you actually have to work it to the point the hammer will fit into the loop, other then that I wear this thing everyday my only suggestion is to add some leather softener to your cart or your 8 hours will feel like 16 hours.

    Great pouch

    In my ten years in the industry, I always used these pouches. I only ever bought two, and that's only because I didn't treat the leather the way I should have on the first one. It served me well in many different situations. I was able to carry this in many tight spaces, and it served me very well. Overall would recommend.

    Seems well built

    Just what I needed for work. Had an extra belt laying around for the pouch.
