Fall protection · Rigid Lifelines

Mobile fall arrest systems

The same track on a base that moves: rolled to the job, or lifted by forklift, for aircraft, rail cars, trucks and anything else that can't have a permanent system over it.

Before you choose

A 6 ft lanyard needs roughly 18 ft below the anchor once free fall, deceleration, harness stretch and the worker’s own height are added up. Most places don’t have it. Work the clearance out first.
