    Electrical Arc-Flash-Resistant Fall-Arrest Harnesses

    Made with Nomex or Kevlar, these harnesses withstand high heat and electrical arcs that could weaken a standard harness. They meet ASTM F887, so they're tested to hold up against arc flash hazards. Attach the D-ring on the back to a lanyard, and these harnesses will keep you upright if you fall. When used together with a lanyard and anchor, these harnesses help you meet OSHA and ANSI safety standards.

    Squeeze-Release Thigh

    Buckle

    Style A don’t have padding, so they’re less bulky than Style B. However, they may chafe if worn for long periods. They have squeeze-release thigh buckles, which connect and disconnect more quickly than slide buckles and don’t need to be adjusted each time you put them on.
    Impact-Indicating Stitching—Impact-indicating stitching is designed to tear during a fall or impact, so it’s easy to tell if a harness is still safe to use.
    Lanyard Holders—If you have an unused lanyard, clip it to one of the lanyard holders to keep it from dragging or catching on nearby equipment.

    For Climbing

    Our most versatile harness for tasks at height in areas with arc-flash and fire hazards—these harnesses have a D-ring on the back, chest, and each hip. Made with Nomex and Kevlar, they’re tested to ASTM F887 for arc-flash protection. Attach a lanyard to the D-ring on the back, and these harnesses will keep you upright if you fall. The chest D-ring lets you clip into ladder-climbing systems without the line getting in your way as you climb. Hip D-rings let you tether yourself close to your work, so your hands are free for tools and equipment. When used together with an anchor and a lanyard, these harnesses help you meet OSHA and ANSI safety standards.
    Impact-Indicating Stitching—Impact-indicating stitching is designed to tear during a fall or impact, so it’s easy to tell if a harness is still safe to use.
    Lanyard Holders—If you have an unused lanyard, clip it to one of the lanyard holders to keep it from dragging or catching on nearby equipment.
