The Phoenix shock-absorbing lanyard is made of a 1 3/4 in. (45 mm) lightweight continuous web. The shock absorber is covered with a tubular polyester sleeve.
The purpose of the shock absorber is to lower the impact force experienced in a fall by dissipating the kinetic energy and controlling deceleration.
The shock-absorbing device is made of a specially woven webbing that ellongates through tearing on its weave and stitching. The dual leg model allows the worker to remain safely connected at all time (100% tie-off) while climbing or on the move.
