stretchfor shock-absorbing lanyards (two arms)

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 dynamically loaded.

The tubular sheath acts as a protective cover with a 7,500 lbs. (33.3 kN) structural safety factor surrounding the core material. 

The purpose of the shock absorber is to lower the impact force experienced in a fall by dissipating the kinetic energy and controlling deceleration.

The shock-absorbing device is made of a specially woven webbing that lengthens through tearing on its weave and stitching. The dual leg model allows the worker to remain safely connected at all time (100% tie-off) while climbing or on the move.

WARNING

When choosing an anchorage point, take into consideration the deceleration distance. The shock absorber can elongate up to 42 in. (1.1 m) as it extends during activation. Free fall distance must never be greater than 6 ft. (1.8 m).

Consult local regulations as permitted free fall distance may be less than 6 ft. (1.8 m).
