In a fall arrest system, every link counts. This safety karabiner is used to join the elements of a fall arrest or work-at-height system: harness, energy absorber, lifeline or anchor point.
It is available in three versions to suit each use: symmetrical steel, robust and wear-resistant; directional, designed to work in a specific loading direction, such as in connections to anchors; and asymmetrical aluminium, lighter, ideal if you carry several karabiners throughout the day.
Main advantages
Three versions: symmetrical steel, directional or asymmetrical aluminium
Steel: maximum wear resistance
Aluminium: less weight for jobs with a lot of kit
Universal connector: joins harness, energy absorber, lifeline and anchor
Vetonek tip: always work with the karabiner gate locked and avoid side loading or resting it on edges. Before each use, check that the gate closes by itself and the lock works correctly.
