Product Information

Full details

The Arco Adjustable Restraint Lanyard is a critical safety tool for professionals working at height who need to maintain a safe distance from fall hazards. Designed specifically for restraint applications rather than fall arrest, this lanyard offers an adjustable length of 1.3m to 1.8m, allowing users to tailor their range of movement to the specific requirements of their job site. While it excels at keeping workers away from unprotected edges, it is important to note that this equipment does not provide energy absorption and must never be used in situations where a fall arrest system is required.

How often should I inspect the lanyard?

You must inspect the equipment before every use, and it should also undergo a thorough inspection by a competent person at least every six months.

Is this lanyard compatible with all harnesses?

It is compatible with most standard fall protection harnesses, provided they have an appropriate attachment point intended for restraint.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the lanyard, inspect the webbing for signs of wear and ensure the adjusting buckle operates smoothly. Connect the lanyard to the designated restraint attachment point on your harness, typically marked with an 'R' or specified in your harness manual. Ensure the anchor point is rated for the required load. When not in use, store the lanyard in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, chemicals, or sharp objects. Regularly clean the webbing with a mild detergent and water, then allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Never attempt to repair the lanyard yourself; if the equipment is damaged or has been subjected to excessive force, it must be removed from service immediately.
