Product Details
The Werner® Bantam™ Switch is a notable advancement in self-retracting lifelines (SRLs), featuring a unique design that connects the housing unit to the anchor point instead of the harness's D-ring. This innovative SRL is equipped with an omni-directional swivel at the housing connection, which minimizes line twists, while its reverse mechanism shifts the weight of the SRL from the user, enhancing comfort and allowing greater freedom of movement. The Werner® R530809-SR Bantam™ Switch offers a 6-foot working length with single leg construction and includes a rebar hook. Its lightweight and compact design employs UHMWPE webbing, which is 9 feet in length and reduces fall arrest distance to less than 32 inches, keeping the average arrest forces below 900 lb. The thermoplastic housing with an omni-directional small rebar hook ensures that the dorsal D-ring remains accessible for other equipment or rescue operations. Furthermore, the integrated backpack style energy absorber and the lifeline's UHMWPE webbing, measuring 3/4 inches wide by 1/16 inches thick, meet the ANSI Z359.14-2021 Class 1 standards and OSHA regulations, while accommodating a weight capacity of 90-400 lbs.
