Lanyard takes the heat
05 June 2015
In high temperature applications such as welding, cutting and electrical maintenance, fire and sparks are a major concern. Capital Safety's Pro Welders lanyards are covered with reinforced webbing made from Nomex/Kevlar fibre to protect shock packs from getting burned. These materials have been specially developed to withstand temperatures of up to 371°.
Part of the PROTECTA range by Capital Safety, the Pro Welders lanyards have been rigorously tested and meet the requirements of EN355:2002, the European standard for personal protective equipment (PPE) for fall arrest.
With a weight capacity of 100kg, the lanyard’s scaffolding hooks can bear up to 23kN while their oval karabiner design can support up to 25kN.
