Self-Retracting Lanyard & Lifeline
Sylprotec offers self-retracting lanyards and life lines for the safety of workers performing tasks at heights. Self-retracting lanyards and lifelines are used when the worker must hook himself on a distance over 6 feet.
The device includes a strap or cable wound in a housing provided with a braking system. Some models are equipped with an overload indicator. The recovery of a worker after a fall is facilitated with a self-retracting lanyard because the rope remains tight and locked to below 9 inches. The choice for an optimal equipment must take into account:
- The work environment
- The required length
- The type of carabiners
The materials of the self-retracting belt or wiring are based on the worker's environment:
- Polyester webbing 2 in (50mm) for regular places
- Dyneema and polyester webbing of ¾ in (20 mm) for a cut resistant strap
- Wiring stainless steel 3/16 in (5 mm) for the food industries
- Galvanized steel wire 3/16 in (5 mm) for a chemical resistance
Type of carabiners offered:
- Regular carabiners
- Rebar hook
It is important to remember that these facilities require inspection by the manufacturer 2 years after the date of commissioning of equipment and each year thereafter. Contact our customer service to get the inspection service self-retracting lanyards.
