Description
The AAA SAFE Safeman full body safety harness combines comprehensive fall protection features with ergonomic design for extended wear comfort. Engineered for construction, industrial maintenance, roofing, tower climbing, and scaffolding operations, this harness effectively distributes fall arrest forces across the entire body, minimizing injury risk during falls from height.
Key Features
- Built-in Padding: Padding on shoulders, back, and legs enhances comfort during extended wear and distributes weight more evenly.
- Adjustable Chest Strap & Thigh Straps: Allow for a customized and secure fit, crucial for fall protection.
- Comfortable Sit Strap: Provides additional comfort and support while suspended.
- D-ring Located at Back: This is the standard location for the primary attachment point for a lanyard or lifeline used in fall arrest applications.
- Single Hook: This is a significant concern for fall arrest. Safety regulations (e.g., OSHA) typically mandate double lanyards for fall arrest to minimize risk in case one lanyard fails. A single hook setup might not meet safety requirements for fall arrest.
- Comprehensive Fall Protection: Dorsal (back) D-ring for primary fall arrest attachment with optional sternal (chest) D-rings for additional connection options and rescue operations
- Adjustable Strap System: Easily adjustable shoulder, chest, waist, and thigh straps with sliding plates for smooth, customizable fit
- Padded Comfort Design: Shoulder, back, and leg padding reduces fatigue during prolonged wear at height
- Ergonomic Sit-Strap: Ideally positioned to distribute forces during suspension and rescue scenarios
- High-Strength Polyester Webbing: Durable webbing construction withstands rigorous work-at-height applications
- CED-Coated Metal Components: Cathodic electro deposition coating on D-rings and buckles provides superior corrosion resistance
- High-Visibility Design: Green and black colors with optional retro-reflective webbing enhance visibility on job sites and in low-light conditions
- Integrated Lanyards: Single lanyards with robust snap hooks ready for connection to suitable anchor points
- Plastic Belt & Back Support: Structured support components distribute weight and enhance comfort during extended use
- Scaffolding Hook Attachment: Compatible with standard scaffolding and work-at-height anchor systems
- Universal Adjustable Fit: Accommodates various body types with comprehensive strap adjustments
Technical Build
- The harness uses high-strength polyester webbing throughout with reinforced stress points. The metal components (D-rings, buckles, and snap hooks) are finished with CED coating to resist corrosion from weather exposure and site conditions. The integrated lanyards with snap hooks provide immediate fall arrest capability without requiring separate lanyard purchases.
Fall Protection Architecture
- The dorsal D-ring positioned at the back provides the primary fall arrest connection point, while optional sternal D-rings allow for chest-level connections useful in rescue and evacuation scenarios. This multi-point attachment system ensures optimal load distribution across the harness during fall events.
Use-Case Scenarios
- Construction site work-at-height operations
- Industrial maintenance on elevated structures
- Roofing and skylight installation and repair
- Tower climbing and communication tower maintenance
- Scaffolding assembly and dismantling
- Window cleaning and facade work
- Electrical installation on poles and structures
- General height safety in industrial facilities
- Fall Arrest (with Back D-ring): If the harness is certified for fall arrest, the back D-ring could be used with a double lanyard and lifeline for this purpose. However, confirmation is crucial.
- The harness and hook are part of a certified work positioning system.
- You receive proper training on safe use within that system.
- Relevant regulations (e.g., OSHA standards) permit a single hook for your specific work positioning application.
Ideal Applications
- Construction work-at-height and fall protection
- Industrial maintenance on elevated structures
- Roofing and exterior building work
- Tower climbing and antenna maintenance
- Scaffolding work and temporary structures
- Window cleaning and building facade services
- Electrical and utility work on poles
- General height safety operations
FAQ
Q: What is the weight capacity of this safety harness?
A: The full body safety harness is designed to support a weight capacity of up to 140kg; however, always verify the specific product’s load limits before use.
Q: Does this harness come with lanyards?
A: Yes, the SBLT-02 includes integrated single lanyards with robust snap hooks, ready for immediate connection to suitable anchor points without requiring separate purchases.
Q: What do the D-rings do in this harness?
A: The dorsal (back) D-ring serves as the primary fall arrest attachment point, while optional sternal (chest) D-rings provide additional connection options useful for rescue operations and body positioning.
