Retractable Inertia Reel Fall Arrestors

Consider the material ( the lifeline section can be made from either wire rope or fabric webbing) and the size and weight of the block, and ensure you have suitable connectors to attach the block properly to the anchor point. You may need additional slings to fit the block into position safely.

Here are some key features to consider:

• Shock absorbers: These are primarily found on fall-limiting blocks with a horizontal functionality.
• Fall indicators: These trigger in the event of a fall, indicating that the device needs servicing or replacing.
• Carry handles: Some larger fall limiters have convenient carry handles positioned on the sides.
• Winch fitting: Some fall protection blocks have integrated winches, which can be used in rescue operations to raise or lower incapacitated workers. 
• Serviceability: You can send many of our blocks for servicing to renew their inner workings, ensuring they’re safe for further use. Remember that you still need to inspect your fall arrest block before each use, as you would with all fall equipment.

Retractable inertia reel fall arresters can be used in conjunction with other items in our fall protection range, such as safety harnesses and fall rescue equipment.
