Hot work fall protection: the single-leg Kevlar fibre energy-absorbing lanyard
3M purchase code: 7012817344, model: 1340128C
The Protecta 3M 1340128C hot work shock absorbing lanyard is a single-leg 6 ft (1.82 m) lanyard built for fall protection during welding, grinding and hot work. Its flame-resistant Kevlar fibre web withstands sparks and molten metal splatter, while its energy absorber, housed in a heat-resistant cover, deploys progressively during a fall to reduce the arresting forces transmitted to the worker.
It connects by means of one steel spring-loaded snap hook at the harness attachment point and one large steel rebar hook at the anchorage end, ideal for tying off to large structures or rebar. A fall indicator lets you quickly spot a lanyard that has already arrested a fall.
The maximum supported worker weight is between 121 and 310 lb (54.9 to 140.6 kg), including clothing, tools and equipment. This product is certified to CSA Z259.11.
Understanding the fall clearance window
Before using this energy-absorbing lanyard, calculate the fall clearance, that is, the free space required below the anchorage point to arrest a fall before the worker strikes the ground or an obstacle. This clearance window adds up from several elements: the length of the lanyard, the deployment of the energy absorber, the height of the worker, the dorsal D-ring slide and a safety margin. A miscalculation is one of the most common causes of serious injuries at height, even with compliant equipment.
Example for this 6 ft lanyard: the lanyard (6 ft) plus the absorber deployment (4 ft) plus the worker height (6 ft) plus a safety margin (1.5 ft) give a total clearance of about 17.5 ft (5.3 m) below an overhead anchorage. In low-clearance situations, choose a self-retracting lifeline instead.
FAQ: Frequently asked questions about the hot work lanyard
Why choose a Kevlar fibre lanyard for hot work?
Kevlar fibre is flame-resistant: it does not melt or ignite on contact with sparks or molten metal splatter. It is the right choice for welding, grinding and all hot work where a standard polyester web would be damaged.
What is the capacity of this lanyard?
This lanyard is designed for a worker whose total weight, including tools, is between 121 and 310 lb (54.9 to 140.6 kg).
When should I choose a single-leg lanyard over a double-leg Y lanyard?
The single-leg lanyard suits fixed single-anchor workstations and restraint applications where the worker does not move between several anchor points. For repeated transitions at height where 100% tie-off is required, choose a double-leg Y lanyard instead.
What is the required fall clearance with this 6 ft lanyard?
Adding the lanyard (6 ft), the absorber deployment (4 ft), the worker height (6 ft) and a safety margin (1.5 ft), you need about 17.5 ft (5.3 m) of clearance below an overhead anchorage.
What happens if my anchor is at foot level?
This is the most dangerous scenario, fall factor 2: the free fall can reach twice the lanyard length. This energy absorbing lanyard is designed to dissipate the energy of a severe fall and reduce arresting forces, making it suitable when the anchor is at foot level.
Complementary suggestions for the lanyard:
A structural carpenter connecting with this Protecta 3M lanyard completes personal protection with a high-visibility garment (VP19), a helmet (TA222) with an integrated chin strap, cut-resistant gloves (GS13TAGPU), safety eyewear (YAU3350) and corded earplugs (OA101D) that stay around the neck and cannot drop from height.
For the lanyard to work in a complete fall arrest system, plan a Protecta 3M harness (FPH1191392CA), a Protecta 3M anchor (FPA9504674), a second Protecta 3M fixed anchor (FPAAJ720A), a 400 ft RollGliss R550 rescue (FPLR550) and descent device for emergency lowering, a DANGER barricade tape (ECT3RE9) to cordon off the ground area and the sign (ECO130) reminding that the harness is mandatory.
