PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The ABSORBICA-Y TIE-BACK is a double lanyard with integrated intermediate tie-back rings and compact energy absorber. It is designed for vertical progression on very large structures and when passing intermediate anchor points. The TIE-BACK system allows the lanyard ends to be reconnected to fit around structures with a very large cross section. The arms are elasticized to avoid hindering progression. It is available with or without connectors and is certified to North American, European and Russian standards.
• Designed for progression on a vertical structure and when passing intermediate anchors
• TIE-BACK intermediate tie-back rings on the lanyard allow connection to very large structures. In a rescue situation, these
rings are easily accessible for the rescuer, even when the person is suspended on the lanyard after a fall
• Absorbs energy in case of a fall:
– tearing of the energy absorber webbing limits the impact force on the user
– works with users who weigh between 50 and 130 kg
– progressive tearing reduces the deceleration on lightweight users
• Minimal bulk:
– compact energy absorber facilitates handling
– elasticized arms to avoid hindering progression
• Durable fabric pouch with opening system at each end, protects the energy absorber from abrasion or contaminants while
allowing for regular inspection of the absorber
• Two options for installation on the harness, depending on use:
– frequent connection/disconnection: using either a carabiner held in correct position by the STRING positioning accessory
(included with the lanyard), or a MICRO SWIVEL to avoid tangling
– semi-permanent connection: using either a RING OPEN gated ring whose circular shape ensures optimal positioning, or a
SWIVEL OPEN to avoid tangling
• Available with or without connectors (two large-opening MGO connectors for connecting to metal structures and a Bm’D
carabiner with CAPTIV positioning bar, for connecting to harness)
