    FAQs

    Q: When should I choose the 6-foot length instead of a shorter lanyard?
    A: Choose 6 feet when the work area provides adequate fall clearance and you need normal mobility without increasing restriction.

    Q: What advantage does the ViewPack inspection window offer?
    A: It allows quick visual confirmation that the energy absorber is intact and has not deployed, helping ensure the lanyard is safe for continued use.

    Q: What should I inspect on the snap hooks before each use?
    A: Confirm the gate opens and closes smoothly, locks securely, and that the body shows no cracks, bending or corrosion.

    Q: How does the tear-away energy absorber help during a fall?
    A: It reduces fall forces by tearing in a controlled manner, limiting average arrest force to around 900 lb.
