Applications:
The Tracpac high-abrasion shock-absorbing lanyard with 5,000 lbs. (22.2 kN) gate load carabiner is composed of a shock absorber to which a 13/16 in. (30 mm) high-abrasion web lanyard is attached. With a triple action gate loading mechanism, the 5,000 lbs. (22.2 kN) all direction carabiner allows the user the ability to tie back directly to the lanyard arm itself creating a 5,000 lbs. (22.2 kN) structural anchorage connection.
When a fall occurs, the sudden stop caused by the fall arrest system submits the human body to a high impact force (the longer the free fall distance, the greater the force).
The purpose of the shock absorber is to lower the impact force experienced in a fall by dissipating the kinetic energy and controlling deceleration. The shock-absorbing device is made of a specially woven webbing that ellongates through tearing on its weave and stitching. This action limits the impact force to less than 900 lbs. (4 kN).
The dual arm model allows the worker to remain safely connected at all time (100% tie-off) while climbing or on the move.
