Product Details
The Werner® Bantam™ Switch is a self-retracting lifeline that connects directly to the anchor point rather than the D-ring on the harness, featuring an omni-directional swivel at the housing connection to reduce line twists. The reverse mechanism redistributes the weight of the SRL away from the user, enhancing comfort and mobility while maintaining safety standards. This model, the Werner® R530806 Bantam™ Switch, has a working length of 6 feet and a single leg construction with a snap hook. Its lightweight and compact design utilizes UHMWPE webbing that measures 3/4 inches wide by 1/16 inches thick, ensuring a minimized fall arrest distance of less than 32 inches and average arrest forces of less than 900 lb. The thermoplastic housing includes an omni-directional snap hook that allows for the dorsal D-ring to remain available for additional equipment or rescue needs. Moreover, it features an integrated backpack style energy absorber, complies with ANSI Z359.14-2021 Class 1 requirements, and meets OSHA standards, accommodating weight capacities ranging from 130 to 310 lbs.
