Description

The block’s casing is constructed from high-impact-strength Polymer, ensuring durability and preventing breakage, making it nearly indestructible. It can be anchored at a single point, allowing users to move freely across different levels without hindrance. The connecting lanyard is designed to retract or extend to varying lengths as needed, maintaining constant tension without any slack.

In case of a fall, the block locks immediately, minimizing the fall distance and reducing the impact force to less than 6kN for added safety. Additionally, there is a 6-month warranty from the date of invoice covering any manufacturing defects.

Benefits

The primary function of a retractable block is to quickly activate the braking mechanism upon detecting sudden movement or acceleration, thus arresting a fall and minimizing potential injuries.
Retractable blocks are designed to maintain constant tension on the lifeline, which helps to minimize slack and reduces the risk of tripping or entanglement during use.
It’s important to note that the specific features and capabilities of self-retracting lifelines (SRLs) can vary based on factors such as model, manufacturer, and intended use.
When selecting and using an SRL, it is crucial to follow the manufacturer’s instructions, conduct proper training, and adhere to applicable safety standards and regulations.
