The Ultimate Pry Point by Bee Smart Designs
The Bee Smart Designs Ultimate Pry Point makes separating hive boxes easy—no more banging your hive tool or straining to break the propolis seal. Rather than a handheld tool, it's a set of tough Technopolymer pry pieces that screw permanently onto your boxes. You insert your own hive tool and lever up or down to pop boxes apart cleanly.
Features
- Two fulcrum points—one to break the propolis seal, one to lift the box.
- Mounts in seconds with the included stainless steel screws; install level with the top or bottom edge so stacked pieces face each other.
- Fits any equipment—8-frame, 10-frame, nucs, and deep, medium, or shallow boxes.
- Protects woodenware and minimizes disturbance to the bees.
- Works with your standard hive tool; pairs well with Bee Smart Super Grip Hive Handles.
What's included
5 sets (10 halves) of pry points with mounting screws.
