Fall protection: the single-leg shock absorbing lanyard for large structures
3M purchase code: 7100328998, model: 1246570C
The DBI-SALA 3M 1246570C shock absorbing lanyard is a single-leg 4 ft (1.2 m) lanyard built for fixed workstations requiring only a single anchor point. Its yellow polyester web houses an energy absorber inside a black pack that deploys progressively during a fall to reduce the arresting forces transmitted to the worker.
It connects by means of an anodized aluminum snap hook at the harness attachment point and a blue anodized aluminum open-jaw large hook at the anchorage point, designed to tie off to large-diameter structures such as beams or pipes. The 3M IRF identification system makes equipment tracking and inspection easier throughout its service life.
Total worker weight capacity, including clothing, tools and equipment, is 132 to 310 lb (59.9 to 140.6 kg). This product is compliant with 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.
For this 4 ft lanyard: the lanyard (4 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 15.5 ft (4.7 m) below an overhead anchorage. In low-clearance situations, choose a self-retracting lifeline instead.
FAQ: Frequently asked questions about the aluminum hook single-leg lanyard
Does this lanyard meet Canadian standards?
Yes, this product is compliant with CSA Z259.11 for construction sites and industrial environments in Canada.
What is the capacity of this lanyard?
This lanyard is designed for a worker whose total weight, including tools, is between 132 and 310 lb (59.9 to 140.6 kg).
Why choose an aluminum hook over a steel one?
The anodized aluminum hook is lighter than steel while offering comparable strength, reducing worker fatigue during frequent moves, while keeping a wide opening to tie off to large-diameter structures.
What fall clearance is required?
About 15.5 ft (4.7 m) below an overhead anchorage. In low-clearance situations, choose a self-retracting lifeline instead.
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 3M IRF 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:
Beyond fall arrest, equip the worker from head to toe: protect their hands with cut-resistant gloves (G120), their eyes with safety eyewear (YAU3201), and their hearing in noisy areas with earplugs (OA1101) or earmuffs (OPH7A); on a traffic worksite, add a high-visibility vest (V6676).
To complete your fall protection system, combine your lanyard with reliable anchors: a connector (FPA5900581), a anchor (FPAAJ720A), or a rugged fixed connector (FPA2103680); attach it to an ExoFit harness (FPH111312XCAP) or the model (FPH114018XCAP), and post the mandatory sign (ECO130). Every component of the harness-lanyard-anchor assembly can save lives at height.
