stretchfor shock-absorbing lanyards (one arm)

The Stretchfor shock-absorbing lanyard is composed of a specially woven core material, a structural tubular sheath webbing and an internal elastic retainer. The core material is constructed to stretch when dymanically loaded.

The tubular sheath acts as a protective cover with a 7,500 lbs. (33.3 kN) structural safety factor surrounding the core material. In addition to the primary function of deceleration the Stretchfor has an elastic retainer inside the tubular webbing designed to introduce stretch from 41⁄2 to 6 ft. (1.3 to 1.8 m) providing mobility to the worker, without the clutter of a longer length lanyard.

The shock-absorbing device is made of a specially woven webbing that lengthens through tearing on its weave and stitching.
