This aluminium housed fall arrest block is a sturdy, low maintenance device fitted with a steel rope lifeline, terminated with a steel double action hook.  The attachment anchorage point on the fall arrest block is an open steel handle, suitable for connection via a standard karabiner type connector, or a standard karabiner type connector with an anchorage sling, or a large karabiner.

This device functions in the same way as a conventional fall arrest block, however once the fall has been arrested, the device immediately lowers the user to the ground at a constant speed of 0.9m/sec.

*Note - This item is 'special order' and will take up to 15 days for delivery.

Horizontal Usage: The lifeline in this fall arrest block has been tested in a simulated fall over an edge and passed the German draft amendment EN360. However, not all "edges" will have the same effect on the lifeline as the tested steel edge, so when using this fall arrest block you should use it with a 1m dyneema tail(which has better fall characteristics protecting the hook from impacting on the edge and being forced open).  Sewn directly onto the harness 'D' ring or connected to the harness via a mallion, will eliminate the issues associated with accidental loading across the minor axis of the hook and will help to minimise impact and edge abrasion.
