This comprehensive kit includes a 2-point harness, a single lanyard with a shock absorber, and a durable nylon drawstring bag for easy storage. Designed with worker safety in mind, this kit is an essential tool for tasks performed at elevated heights. As advancements in architecture and technology have led to more frequent work at greater heights, safety equipment has also evolved significantly, offering enhanced protection for those in high-risk industries.
Falls are one of the most common causes of serious injuries in the workplace and on-site, that is why we offer only the best Fall Protection systems certified to the relevant standards.
Stay safe working at heights with this 2-part Fall Protection kit comprising of:
- 2 Point Harness with dorsal D Ring,
- Single Lanyard with shock absorber,
- Nylon bag for easy storage, transport and safety.
Features of the Harness
The Harness is made with strong but lightweight polyester webbing to provide the wearer with confidence whilst working at height without obstructing the wearer from carrying out the task at hand. The Harness has a sliding rear/ dorsal D-Ring and two chest loops. For the wearer's additional comfort, there is a quick release and adjustable chest strap and adjustable leg straps. This means that the wearer can layer up to protect against the elements without compromising on comfort or safety with items such as the Sealtex Ultra Coverall, Hi-Vis Poly-cotton Trousers, and/or Hi-Vis Contrast Bomber Jacket.
The harness is certified to EN 361 which gives the wearer the assurance that the harness will hold the wearer in place and spread the load in case of a fall scenario, even after being brought to a stop after a period of free fall. The test includes fitting a 100kg solid torso dummy into the harness attached to a 2-meter rope. The dummy is then released over 4 meters. The test is carried out twice on each harness attachment, once from a head-up position and another time from a head-down position. The harness passes and becomes certified to EN 361 when the dummy is held in a position not exceeding 50 degrees from the upright position. In short, the wearer can absolutely rely on the performance and safety of this harness!

This lanyard is 180 cm in total, comprised of a 120cm rope, a tear-open energy absorber to cushion a fall, and a snap hook and scaffold hook for attachment. The lanyard is certified to the following standards:
