safety lifeline wire rope size in stock

When it comes to any at-height industry, fall protection is an important part of the job. Not to mention you will probably spend some time in situations where tying off to an appropriate anchor can be difficult. That"s why having the best lifeline is important. Our gear experts have spent years sourcing the best lifeline rope available and our hand-picked selection will help you stay safe and get the job done. We feature a range of styles, colors, lengths, and sizes of rope. You can choose a rope from 300, 600, or 1,200 foot pre-cut lengths, or if you need a custom length rope - we’ve got you covered there too. Diameters include ?, 7/16, ?, and ½ inch options and come in a variety of styles including HTP static, 3-strand, and unicore. We’ve also got a range of colors so that each lifeline can be visibly different than the others for easy identification.

The 5° angle fixed length, pre-engineered Horizontal Lifeline System (HLL) is for use by 3 workers in fall restraint or 2 in fall arrest. This 3rd party engineered horizontal line kit is a cost-effective way to have multiple workers on the roof with room to move freely. A 20’ lifeline will have a 5° total sag angle vs. the 30° sag angle with our model number 1323. This kit includes our coil non-mechanical energy absorber that is specified for use with this HLL System. Super Anchor Safety fixed length horizontal lifelines, when used with our specified anchorage devices provide an engineered system for rafter spacing of 10’ up to 20’. For accurate rigging, each fixed length horizontal lifeline is labeled for the correct rafter spacing.

Lifelines, safety belts, and lanyards shall be used only for employee safeguarding. Any lifeline, safety belt, or lanyard actually subjected to in-service loading, as distinguished from static load testing, shall be immediately removed from service and shall not be used again for employee safeguarding.

Lifelines shall be secured above the point of operation to an anchorage or structural member capable of supporting a minimum dead weight of 5,400 pounds.

Lifelines used on rock-scaling operations, or in areas where the lifeline may be subjected to cutting or abrasion, shall be a minimum of 7⁄8 -inch wire core manila rope. For all other lifeline applications, a minimum of 3⁄4 -inch manila or equivalent, with a minimum breaking strength of 5,000 pounds, shall be used.

Safety belt lanyard shall be a minimum of 1⁄2 -inch nylon, or equivalent, with a maximum length to provide for a fall of no greater than 6 feet. The rope shall have a nominal breaking strength of 5,400 pounds.
