FAQs
Q: Will this extender affect my fall clearance when used?

A: Yes — the extender provides an extended D-ring connection point, allowing easier attachment of either a self-retracting lifeline or a lanyard.
Q: How do I inspect this extender before use?
A: Check the polyester webbing for cuts, abrasions or wear-indicating thread exposure, verify D-ring and snap hook for deformation or corrosion, and ensure webbing is properly anchored at both ends.
Q: Is this extender compatible with any full-body harness?
A: It is designed to attach to a harness dorsal D-ring using the steel snap hook; compatibility should be confirmed against your harness D-ring rating and configuration.
