Harnesses

Selecting the right harness…

…Should be less about your budget and more about the safety, suitability and correct fitment.

Don’t be fooled by the all-singing all-dancing bells and whistles, very often they add little or no technical advantage.

There are, of course, times when side D-rings, belts, abseil points and additional leg supports or padding are advantageous but for the basic working at height tasks a simple two-point product is normally sufficient.

Unless a harness is being used where there will never be a need to remotely rescue the user we would always recommend a two-point harness as a minimum. It adds very little cost but ensures, in the event of an emergency rescue where the rear D- ring is not accessible, the rescuer can safely connect to the casualty.

Pro Body Harnesses Series III

The series III Pro Body Harness has been designed to help lower the compression forces around the user’s back, hips and legs. Using built up layers of thermoformed breathable foams and a clever combination of fabrics the pinching of webbing against the skin is reduced. When sitting or leaning the extra padding protects the users hips from fittings which tend to become uncomfortable after long work periods.

Even the simplest harness in our range has five points of adjustment, shock absorbing rear ‘D’ and rear connection straps between leg loops and hips. This transfers forces to the bodies natural energy absorber and holds the body securely together reducing compression to vital blood flow areas.
