Professional 5m Wire Retractable Fall Limiter for Vertical and Horizontal Use with Shock Absorber and Connectors

Product Description

This 5m fall limiter is designed for both vertical and horizontal applications, making it an essential tool for roofing professionals. Complete with a shock absorber and all necessary connectors, this system is ideal for use on sharp edges typically encountered on terraced roofs.

The self-retractable line can be easily positioned at the top of a roofline, allowing the cable to reel out or in as needed, facilitating free movement while you work. The system locks automatically when it detects an abrupt load, similar to a car seatbelt, which helps to limit the distance of a fall. Additionally, if sufficient energy accumulates during a fall event, the built-in shock absorber will deploy automatically to absorb the energy, so it is crucial to consider extra ground clearance when using this feature.
