Product Specific Applications

Personal Fall Arrest:

GR6 Tie-Back SRL may be used to support a MAXIMUM 1 PFAS for use in Fall

Arrest applications. Structure must withstand loads applied in the directions permitted by the
system of at least 5,000 lbs. Maximum 2’ free fall (note: reduced weight capacity and increased
deceleration distance if free fall exists). Applicable D-ring: Dorsal.

Restraint:

GR6 Tie-Back SRL may be used in Restraint applications. Restraint systems prevent

workers from reaching the leading edge of a fall hazard. Always account for fully deployed length
of lanyard/SRL. Structure must withstand loads applied in the directions permitted by the system
of at least 1,000 lbs. No free fall is permitted. Restraint systems may only be used on surfaces
with slopes up to 4/12 (vertical/horizontal). Applicable D-rings: Dorsal, Chest, Side, Shoulder.

WARNING

Use of equipment in unintended applications may result in serious

injury or death. Maximum 1 attachment per connection point.

Limitations

Fall Clearance:

There must be

sufficient clearance below the
anchorage connector to arrest
a fall before the user strikes the
ground or an obstruction. When
calculating fall clearance,
account for a MINIMUM 2’
safety factor, deceleration
distance, user height, length
of lanyard/SRL, harness stretch
and all other applicable factors.

Diagram shown is an example
fall clearance calculation ONLY.

Swing Falls:

Prior to installation

or use, make considerations for
eliminating or minimizing all
swing fall hazards. Swing falls
occur when the anchor is not
directly above the location
where a fall occurs. Always
work as close to in line with
the anchor point as possible.
Swing falls significantly
increase the likelihood of
serious injury or death in the
event of a fall.

For all applications, worker weight capacity range (including all clothing, tools, and equipment):

Anchor point at or above dorsal D-ring: 130-420 lbs.

Anchor point below dorsal D-ring (max. 2’): 130-310 lbs.

Fall clearance calculation shown based on standing worker falling

directly in-line with anchor point. Always consider potential swing fall

and other hazards when calculating fall clearance.
