Fall Arrest Energy Absorbing Lanyards

SpanSet have manufactured high quality and performance fall arrest lanyards for over 25 years. 

The T-Pak shock absorber has been the foundation of our range and has exceeded the performance requirements of EN355 ensuring comfort and safety for workers.

SP140 Shock absorbing pack includes

  • Testing and certification to all the the EN355 performance requirements using a 140kg test mass
  • More clearance height for workers improving on our T-Pak lanyard range 
  • Published clearance height data for 80kg, 100kg, 120kg and 140kg workers in the instruction manual
  • Integrated ring allows the lanyard leg to be clipped back to the shock absorbing pack
  • More compact MAX-SPAN configuration giving the lanyard legs a greater effective working length between anchors
  • New cover giving better protection to the energy absorbing webbing and making the unit easier to inspect
  • CE label and traceability data is protected inside the pack for increased longevity
  • *Option of Radio Frequency tracer tagging within the label.

Differences between
Single and Twin
fall arrest lanyards

 

Single Lanyard Applications

  • Fixed work positions where the anchor point doesn't change.
  • Vertical ladder systems where the user is connected to a single anchor (e.g., fixed vertical lifelines).
  • Confined spaces with minimal need for movement.
  • Low-movement tasks such as inspecting equipment at a stationary point.

Twin Lanyard Applications

  • Climbing structures (e.g., towers, scaffolding) where constant movement between anchor points is required.
  • Construction sites, telecom towers, wind turbines, where moving from point to point is frequent.
  • Maintaining 100% tie-off — the main reason for using twin lanyards.
  • Tasks requiring continuous fall protection while transitioning anchor points.

Choosing the right lanyard based on your job

 Fixed or adjustable Energy Absorbing Lanyard

  • Basic and reliable solution.
  • Anchor point is always at a known, optimal distance.
  • Work in a static position.
  • Applications: Inspecting equipment on a roof, MEWP works...

Elasticated Lanyard

  • Best for move frequently across your workspace
  • Reduce snagging, tangling, or tripping on the lanyard.
  • Applications: scaffolding or steel erection.

Looped/Tie-Back Lanyard

  • Wrap the lanyard around a beam, post, or rebar.
  • When there are no dedicated anchorage points.
  • Multi-use tool without carrying extra gear (like anchor slings).
