The dext RingPull Can Opener is a hand held tool for lifting and peeling back the ring pull lids fitted to cans and tins. The hook engages the pull tab so the lid can be raised and peeled away without using fingernails, and the manufacturer states that the design provides double the leverage of a plain pull, so around half the force is needed at the hand and wrist. It is engineered so the tab is not flexed and stressed as it is lifted, which reduces the risk of snapping the tab off and leaving the can closed. The wider, curved handle gives a firm hold, and the tool is ambidextrous and works with ring pull cans generally. It is designed and manufactured in the United Kingdom, is fully recyclable, and comes in apricot, mulberry and teal.

Ring pull tabs ask for a pinch grip and a sharp upward lift, and they tend to snap when forced. A tool that hooks the tab and adds leverage takes that work off the fingertips and nails while reducing the chance of a broken tab, and the curved, ambidextrous handle suits either hand and a range of grip strengths.
