RCL12 Adjustable Lanyard

RGL12 Single Leg Adjustable Webbing Restraint Lanyard

Complying to EN 354:2010 Standards

The RGL12 is an adjustable restraint lanyard and acts as a leash for an operative working at height. The adaptability of the product ensures that the correct length can be selected for the task in hand.

It is important to understand the principles of “fall restraint” as the RGL12 can only be used for fall restraint, as there is no shock absorption built into the system. If there is any possibility of an operative stepping/falling over an exposed edge, or falling through a fragile surface, a fall arrest product should be used.
