Twisted Rope Energy Absorbing Forked Lanyard
APS 176

Highlights:

  • ALKO PLUS Forked Lanyards come in Twisted Ropes, Kernmantle Ropes and also in 44mm wide polyester webbing and offer the facility to move in all directions while remaining safely anchored at all times.
  • Forked Lanyards (or Y-shaped Lanyards) provide 100% tie-off required during progressive movement from one anchor point to the next, upwards or side-ways.
  • While using an Energy Absorbing Forked Lanyard make sure that only the Energy Absorber end of the lanyard is connected to the Harness at its Dorsal attachment point. If this is not done so, the shock absorption element gets removed from the system, making it extremely dangerous in the event of a fall.
  • ALKO PLUS Forked Lanyards are tested as per PPE Directive 89/686/EEC.

Description

Provides fall protection: The primary purpose of a forked lanyard with an energy absorber is to provide fall protection for workers who are working at height. The energy absorber is designed to absorb the energy generated during a fall, reducing the risk of injury.

Forked design for mobility: The forked design of the lanyard allows workers to move around more freely while still being safely connected to an anchor point. This is particularly useful in situations where workers need to move between different work areas or work in tight spaces.

Anchor point attachment: The lanyard consists of two arms or legs, each with a snap hook at the end for attaching to an anchor point. The anchor point should be strong enough to support the weight of the worker and the force of a fall.

Suitable for various industries: Forked lanyards with energy absorbers are widely used in construction, industrial, and maintenance settings where workers are at risk of falling from height. They are suitable for a range of tasks, including roofing, painting, and window cleaning.

Regular inspection and maintenance: It is important to inspect and maintain the forked lanyard and energy absorber regularly to ensure that they are in good condition and functioning correctly. Any signs of damage or wear should be addressed promptly to maintain worker safety. do in one liner.
