Protect What Matters.
Workers in the aviation industry operate high above the ground even when the plane is in the hangar. Fall protection is crucial during every process, from manufacturing to routine aircraft maintenance. The XSERIES line of fall protection systems consists of simple but effective equipment for aircraft fall protection. Get in touch with Malta Dynamics to learn more about how the XSERIES can ensure safety and compliance in the aviation industry.
Tasks like indoor or outdoor aircraft maintenance, plane refueling, helicopter blade inspection and many others require employees to work at dangerous heights, yet finding anchor points for fall protection can be difficult. XSERIES fall protection systems help navigate the aviation industry’s unique safety challenges.
Fall Risks & OSHA Regulations.
Safety is a part of every industry, including aviation. Every workforce handling aircraft must follow the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) regulations for fall protection to prevent serious injury, keep projects on schedule and avoid costly fines.
Standard 1926.501 for fall safety was one of the most violated OSHA regulations in 2020, so it’s essential to prioritize systems that will help your company satisfy all safety requirements. Under this standard, employers must provide fall protection in various situations that involve exposure to heights of six feet or more. Some of the 1926.501 fall protection standards most relevant to aviation include:
- 1926.501(b)(1) for employees working near unprotected edges or sides.
- 1926.501(b)(2)(i) for employees constructing leading edges.
- 1926.501(b)(2)(ii) for employees walking on high surfaces.

The XSERIES offers flexible aviation facility fall protection and ensures employee safety even where overhead anchoring points are unavailable. Each machine consists of a sturdy base and an anchor arm that reaches high into the air. Rather than anchoring to something on the plane, your employees can walk freely knowing a secure overhead system will catch them if they slip. We offer both stationary and mobile XSERIES units that operate at different heights and accommodate various numbers of workers.
