What is it?

This is an innovative solution combining the benefits of energy absorbing lanyards and self-retracting lifelines. Two small self-retracting lifeline units are combined with an energy absorbing pack to create a “double legged” lanyard. This device is CE certified to EN360 and the dynamic requirements of EN355. The Double Self-Retracting Lanyard is used as the connecting element between your full body harness and anchor point.

What can it be used for?

The Double Self-retracting Lanyard has been designed and tested to absorb the forces of a fall; this means that it is intended to be used as part of a Fall Arrest System for climbing and accessing unprotected structures. The energy absorbing unit allows attachment to low level anchors up to 2m below you. Double legged lanyard construction allows you to move safely between anchor points and around structures. By including self-retracting units the lanyards will also react as you fall to help limit any free fall distance before the energy absorber activates.
