Description

The SBLT-06 Industrial Work Positioning Belt represents a practical fall prevention and work positioning solution designed for professionals requiring secure anchorage during elevated work tasks. The belt combines comprehensive positioning features with superior comfort elements, making it ideal for construction workers, telecommunications technicians, electrical maintenance personnel, and industrial cleaning professionals working at heights.

Features and Benefits: 

• High-Strength Polyester Webbing: Durable construction withstands rigorous use in demanding industrial environments and challenging site conditions
• Reinforced Stitching: Secure stitching at all stress points ensures reliable performance and long-lasting durability
• Comfortable Back Padding: Wide back support with cushioned padding provides comfort during extended wear and positioning work
• Adjustable Waist Belt: Easy-to-adjust fit accommodates various body sizes and worn over work clothing or protective gear
• Heavy-Duty Metal D-Rings: Robust alloy steel side D-rings provide secure attachment points for positioning lanyards and safety equipment
• Front Buckle Closure: Strong front buckle enables rapid donning and secure fastening for quick transitions
• Included Safety Rope Lanyard: Braided polyamide rope lanyard with integrated scaffold hook provides immediate fall prevention capability
• Professional Color Scheme: Red and black belt with white and blue lanyard accents for visibility and professional appearance
• Multi-Application Design: Suitable for diverse work-at-height scenarios including maintenance, positioning, and access work
• Industrial Safety Compliance: Meets general industrial safety standards with compliance labeling for confidence and traceability
• Ergonomic Support: Extended back padding reduces fatigue during prolonged positioning work
• Versatile Attachment: Side and front attachment points accommodate various lanyard and positioning equipment configuration

Fall Arrest Functionality:

• D-rings: The description mentions two key points:
  • D-ring located on both sides: This is less common in standard fall arrest harnesses. Harnesses typically have a single dorsal D-ring on the back for fall arrest attachment. Side D-rings might be for work positioning (tethering tools) but may not be suitable for fall arrest.
• Double Hook: The purpose of the “double hook” is unclear. It might be:
  • Part of a separate component like a positioning lanyard (not ideal for fall arrest).
  • An additional feature for specific applications (check with the manufacturer).

Safety Considerations:

• Double D-rings for Fall Arrest: While the back D-rings could be used for fall arrest, confirmation is needed. Consult a safety professional or the manufacturer to clarify if the side D-rings are certified for fall arrest and how the “double hook” is intended for use.

Technical Build

• The SBLT-06 uses high-strength polyester webbing throughout with reinforced stitching at critical connection points and stress areas. The back padding is designed for extended ergonomic support during prolonged positioning work. The alloy steel D-rings are securely attached to the belt webbing and rated for industrial safety applications. The braided polyamide lanyard features a durable scaffold hook for reliable anchorage.

Work Positioning Advantage

• The dedicated positioning belt design with side D-rings and included safety rope lanyard allows workers to maintain secure anchorage while performing detailed work tasks at height, providing both safety and operational efficiency without requiring full body harness systems for all positioning applications.

Use-Case Scenarios

• Industrial maintenance on elevated equipment
• Confined space positioning and access work

Ideal Applications

• Construction and building work-at-height positioning
• Telecommunications tower climbing and maintenance
• Electrical utility maintenance on structures
• Window cleaning and building facade services
• Scaffolding operations and temporary structures
• Industrial maintenance and facility work
• Confined space and access work

FAQ

Q: What is the difference between a positioning belt and a full body harness?
A: A positioning belt is designed specifically for work positioning and moderate fall arrest at height, while a full body harness provides comprehensive fall protection for higher-risk scenarios. The SBLT-06 is ideal for positioning work where workers remain relatively stationary during tasks.

Q: Is the safety rope lanyard included with this belt?
A: Yes, the SBLT-06 comes equipped with a braided polyamide safety rope lanyard featuring an integrated scaffold hook for immediate use.

Q: How adjustable is this positioning belt for different body sizes?
A: The waist belt features easy adjustment mechanisms to accommodate various body sizes and can be worn over work clothing or protective gear layers.

Q: What are the side D-rings used for?
A: The robust alloy steel side D-rings provide secure attachment points for positioning lanyards, safety equipment, and additional anchorage as needed during work-at-height operations.

Q: How long is the included safety rope lanyard?
A: Standard braided polyamide rope lanyards typically measure standard working lengths suitable for typical positioning work scenarios; specific measurements can be verified with the manufacturer.

Q: What color options are available?
A: The belt features red and black coloring with white and blue lanyard accents for visibility and professional appearance on work sites.

Q: Is this belt suitable for confined space work?
A: Yes, the SBLT-06 is suitable for positioning and access work in confined spaces and other elevated work scenarios requiring secure anchorage during detailed tasks.

Q: Does this belt meet safety standards?
A: Yes, the SBLT-06 complies with general industrial safety standards with compliance labeling and manufacturer identification for confidence and traceability.
