On this week’s episode of Dynamic Discussions, Greg and David talk to us about front D-Rings on your harness. The front D-Ring on a fall protection harness is typically called a sternal D-Ring. Sternal D-Rings are most commonly used for ladder or tower climbing applications. The sternal D-Rings on a harness are placed at the front so that a worker can be tied off at chest level to a fall protection system while they climb a ladder.
Working in heavy-duty trades or from elevated heights like rooftops increases the chance of injury, so keeping your workers safe in these kinds of environments should be a top priority with whichever industry you’re in. Whenever the risk of a fall is present, your business will need to utilize a personal fall arrest protection program to help support your workers, keeping them in an upright position and above the ground.
The Malta Dynamics Razorback Elite MAXX Sternal D-Ring Harness is designed to prepare your crew for any job at heights, including tower and fixed ladder climbing. This sternal D-Ring harness will deliver functionality and innovation with a lightweight design that makes it easy to wear all day on any job.
With front, back and side D-Rings, this versatile harness will be ready for any job site — and so will you. Use the front D-Ring to safely climb to new heights. Easily connect self-retracting lifelines without having to adjust the webbing by utilizing the back D-Ring, or use the side D-Rings for hands-free positioning. Complete with a sewn-in waist belt and breathable, reflective padding on the shoulders and legs, this lightweight harness also features reflective stitching throughout the webbing.
Equipping your workers with the Razorback Elite MAXX Sternal D-Ring harness increases the chances that they’ll stay safe from serious injuries or death should a fall occur. No matter what size or scope of construction project your team is working on, the harness needs to fit each worker correctly.
