Abstract: An industrial long handled tool component system is provided having interchangeable tool heads, connectors, handles and grips. The novel connector system provides a tool head connected to a receiver comprised of a polygonal locking bar concentric with a round outer reinforcing collar for engaging a connector and separated by plastic isolations seals. The novel connector promotes connection integrity and prevents joint movement. An alternate embodiment provides a connector system and method of stamping and shaping a tool head integrally formed with a receiver.
