| New Range of Height Safety Lanyards Leading Edge rope shock absorbing lanyards are uniquely developed to be tough enough and optimised for high impact edge abrasion, found today in harsh, abrasive environments. Drew Beardmore Leading Edge managing director said “we are continuing our lanyard ongoing battle within the industry for higher quality lanyards products at a more affordable prices. excellent high quality materials and design, insuring the very best in safety considerations. We are constantly developing new lanyards, height safety products and services that exceed expectations and maintain low prices. Our lanyard range is getting bigger everyday so take advantage of some of our great new lanyard offers and see for yourself how you can get your hands on real quality safety lanyards at competitive prices. with harsh environments is the multibraid rope used. Its fibrous inner core provides the strength and flexibility whilst maintaining it lightweight and flexible characteristic. A tight woven outer jacket protects the inner core from abrasion and the ingress of dirt, creating a tough, lightweight lanyard which remains supple for freedom of movement. through material behaviour and design, creating a shock absorber that has both smoother impact dissipation, greatly reducing the overall impact of forces, making the arrest process less aggressive. The new design also allows for it to be much smaller pack, making it lighter and nicer to carry around when attach to the wearers harness. The new design is up to 50% small than classic designs. All leading lanyards are supplied with a maillon connector at the harness anchorage end. We do this to stop the potential hazard of connector failure at this point in the system. Our in-house testing has proven to us that when a person falls the impact normally happens at this point (Dee ring to connector area) by using a normal traditional karabiner, the wearer is exposed to the karabiner failing through minor axis loading i.e. the connector is loading incorrectly across the weakest point during impact on the edge. By using a maillon this is significantly reduced, as the integral design is not subject to the same minor axis failure issues, making it ideal as a connector used in this application of connecting lanyard to harness. For more information on this subject, Drew Beardmore MD of Leading Edge has published a technical guidance booklet (currently 4th revision) on this subject and is available free from Leading Edge Safety. These new lanyard products will be available online over the next few weeks in there own section category at http://www.leadingedgesafety.co.uk/lanyard.php Posts of new product willl be released on our Twitter, Dig and blog feeds. height safety lanyards safety at height Drew Beardmore -Leading Edge Safety Falls from height are one of the leading causes of death and serious injury in the work place, with a high personal cost to families and the subsequent financial cost to businesses. With more than 50 years of experience in technical height safety training and products, we have determined not only to provide the best fall protection and height safety products and training possible, but to also continuously develop new ideas, further our technological expertise, understand and implement new techniques and to repeatedly set higher standards of safe working at height. | |
