This aluminium housed inertia reel 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.

In addition to connecting the fall arrest block with recovery mechanism via the steel handle, it can also be used in conjunction with DB-A1 or DB-A2 aluminium tripods, to protect the user when ascending and descending a vertical shaft i.e. entry into a sewer system.

This fall arrest block also has a built in recovery mechanism, which is engaged by pulling a pin on the side of the block and engaging a winding handle.  This then allows the device to be used to lift or lower a casualty post fall, or if they have become incapacitated in a confined space.


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.
