Flextra 140 D I 85/1 Elastic Single Leg Shock Absorbing Lanyard
Flextra 140 D I 85/1 Elastic Single Leg Shock Absorbing Lanyard is specially developed to safely arrest potential falls of personnel during fixed-point working at height operations on steel structures, lattice towers, pipelines, platforms, and industrial facilities. Thanks to its dynamic elastic internal webbing structure, it contracts and retracts when not under tension, preventing it from tangling around the user’s feet, sagging, and snagging on surrounding obstacles; providing maximum freedom of movement and working comfort in the field.
The shock absorber pack of the product is manufactured with high-strength, 20 mm wide Dyneema® (UHMWPE) tear-webbing technology. Thanks to this advanced technology, it is much more compact, lightweight, and lower profile compared to conventional bulky shock absorbers. In the event of a possible fall, it tears open progressively and in a controlled manner to dissipate the impact force, reducing the load acting on the user’s body below the 6 kN limit. High-strength bonded-type contrasting stitching threads ensure visual inspection and periodic check processes are extremely fast and reliable. The labeling system housed inside a transparent protective sheath ensures that the serial number, year of manufacture, and periodic inspection data remain protected without fading, even in the harshest field conditions.
In the Flextra 140 D I 85/1 model, a steel oval carabiner with 3-action automatic locking (OKS-14 T) is used on the shock absorber side, and a forged steel scaffold hook with an 85 mm gate opening (DSS-85) is featured at the end of the lanyard leg to enable effortless connection to extra-wide steel profiles and pipes. Delivering superior performance across a wide operating temperature range between -30°C and +70°C, the product is shipped in its own dedicated protective carrying bag.
