Conquer Heights with Confidence and Maneuverability: The Guardian External Shock Lanyard (4 ft.) with Dual Snaps
Scaling heights on a construction site demands both safety and agility, especially when working in confined spaces. The Guardian External Shock Lanyard (4 ft.) with Dual Snaps offers a user-friendly solution for fall arrest applications, minimizing fall impact forces while providing secure connections to diverse anchor points.
Why Choose the Guardian External Shock Lanyard (4 ft.) with Dual Snaps?
-
Reduced Fall Impact Forces: This innovative lanyard features an external shock pack specifically designed to absorb impact energy in the event of a fall. This reduces the peak arresting force on your body to 900 pounds or less, minimizing the risk of serious injury.
-
Secure Snap Hook Connection: This lanyard boasts two integrated steel snap hooks for user-friendly attachment to designated fall protection anchor points. They easily connect to D-rings on harnesses, beams, and other suitable structures commonly found on construction sites. The dual connection points allow for flexibility in attaching to various anchor configurations, particularly beneficial in confined spaces.
-
Optimal Maneuverability: The 4-foot length is ideal for situations where a standard 6-foot lanyard might hinder movement. This is particularly beneficial when working in tight spaces, on ladders, or on complex roof structures.
-
FME Prevention Champion: Dropped objects pose a serious safety hazard on construction sites. This lanyard minimizes this risk by providing dedicated attachment points for your fall protection system. You can secure tools to the lanyard, eliminating the need to reach over edges to retrieve them, reducing the risk of dropped objects becoming Foreign Material Exclusion (FME) hazards and disruptions to workflow.
-
Compliance and Value: This external shock absorbing lanyard meets all ANSI Z359.13-2013 regulations, ensuring compliance with safety standards. The dual snap hook design offers a budget-friendly option for fall protection needs in diverse environments, particularly when a shorter lanyard and adaptable connection points are preferred.
Who Needs the Guardian External Shock Lanyard (4 ft.) with Dual Snaps?
This versatile lanyard is ideal for construction professionals who require fall protection with optimal maneuverability in confined spaces, including:
- Ironworkers (working in tight spaces): Secure yourself with confidence while working on intricate steel structures where a shorter lanyard is preferred. The dual snaps allow for connection to various anchor points within confined areas.
- Construction workers (on specific projects with limited space): Benefit from the adaptability of the dual snaps for diverse anchor points and the added protection of the external shock pack for fall arrest situations in confined areas.
- Roofers (working on complex roof sections with limited space): Utilize the dual snaps for secure connections on trusses or uneven roof areas, with the added benefit of the shorter length for increased maneuverability.
