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.
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.

Yes, this product is compliant with CSA Z259.11 for construction sites and industrial environments in Canada.
This lanyard is designed for a worker whose total weight, including tools, is between 132 and 310 lb (59.9 to 140.6 kg).
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.
About 15.5 ft (4.7 m) below an overhead anchorage. In low-clearance situations, choose a self-retracting lifeline instead.
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.
A worker at height connecting with this DBI-SALA 3M lanyard completes personal protection with a high-visibility garment (VV57), a helmet (TA80) held by its chinstrap (TA80CS), cut-resistant gloves (GS18WTFN), safety eyewear (YA12262) 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 DBI-SALA 3M harness (FPH140314XALP), a DBI-SALA 3M fixed anchor (FPA2104568), a second DBI-SALA 3M complementary anchor (FPA8517412), a 450 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.
