Why You Need a Safety Lanyard From Malta Dynamics

A fall protection wire rope, or lanyard, is a safety device to prevent injury from falls. The proper equipment can prevent fall hazards or reduce the potential serious injury from an accident. That’s why OSHA requires workers to have fall protection in place whenever they’re working at a fall distance of 4 feet for general industry or 6 feet in construction. Other industries have their own cutoffs for fall protection, with the maximum being 8 feet. Despite the importance of heavy duty fall protection, OSHA’s standard requiring this protection has consistently been the most frequently violated standard year after year over the past decade.

Different Types of Lanyards

Internal Shock Absorption

If you only need your lanyard to serve as a restraint and not as a fall protection system , then you can depend on a restraint lanyard, which may also be called a fall protection rope lanyard. All other fall protection lanyard types are fall arrest lanyards, meaning they’re designed to safely stop a fall in progress and absorb shock from the fall. Shock-absorbing lanyards include special material that deploys during a fall, lengthening the lanyard. The shock-absorbing device can either be on the outside of the lanyard or contained within the lanyard. On external shock absorbers, you’ll see a shock absorption pack as a separate part of the lanyard.

External Shock Absorption

If you only need your lanyard to serve as a restraint and not as a fall protection system , then you can depend on a restraint lanyard, which may also be called a fall protection rope lanyard. All other fall protection lanyard types are fall arrest lanyards, meaning they’re designed to safely stop a fall in progress and absorb shock from the fall. Shock-absorbing lanyards include special material that deploys during a fall, lengthening the lanyard. Internal shock absorbers look ruffled on the outside. The extra material allows the lanyard to lengthen if the shock absorber inside is deployed.

Single-Leg

Another way to differentiate between different lanyard types is in the number of “legs,” or lines, they include. Single-leg lanyards connect to a single anchor and allow the worker to move within the surrounding area of the anchor. These lanyards are a great option in many instances.

Double-Leg

Another way to differentiate between different lanyard types is in the number of “legs,” or lines, they include. When you need more range of movement in a space with multiple anchors, a double-leg lanyard may be preferable. These dual leg lanyards have two connecting legs that extend from a worker’s harness. These lanyards are often referred to as Y- or V-lanyards or as double-hook lanyards. This system allows 100% tie-off, where you to switch which anchor point you’re attached to without ever being disconnected during the transition.

Stretch

Another product feature you’ll find on some lanyards is a stretchy material on the legs. Stretch lanyards are designed to stretch as a person pulls on the lanyard. For example, the lanyard may be 4.5 feet long when at rest but gain an additional 1.5 feet when outstretched. Some workers prefer stretch lanyards because they can help reduce possible tripping hazards by minimizing extra length.

Non-Stretch

Another product feature you’ll find on some lanyards is a stretchy material on the legs. Non-stretch lanyards do not have an elastic quality — they will only extend a fixed length if the energy absorber deploys.

C5115 4.5' - 6’ SINGLE LEG STRETCH INTERNAL SHOCK ABSORBING LANYARD WITH 1 REBAR HOOK AND 1 STEEL SNAP HOOK

Different Hook Styles

You’ll also find that different lanyards come with different hook styles. One lanyard hook will attach to the worker’s body harness and the other hook will attach to the anchorage. The best hook style depends on your preferences and what you’re hooking onto. The styles we offer include:

Peri form hooks
Rebar hooks
Snap hooks

How Does a Lanyard Work?

Fall Arrest System

A lanyard is a type of connector, a component that’s part of a personal fall arrest system (PFAS). These systems are designed to safely stop a free fall before a worker can reach the surface below them. Lanyards for fall protection work with three components:

An anchor that attaches to the work surface or an overhead object
A full body harness that a worker wears
An anchorage connector that links the worker’s harness to the anchor

These components work together to keep workers safe when they’re working at elevations. If a worker were to trip or lose their balance and start to fall from a rooftop, for example, they could only descend as far as the adjustable lanyard will allow before it becomes taut. At this point, the worker’s fall would be stopped, allowing them to safely regain their footing.

Other Types of Connectors

Another type of connector is known as a self-retracting lifeline (SRL). These connectors may also be referred to as self-retracting lanyards, though they are not the same as a standard lanyard. Self-retracting lanyards are rolled up, or retracted, by default and unfurl as workers move farther away from the anchorage. They also retract in response to a worker’s movement and, if they detect sudden movement from a fall, will engage a speed break.

Standard lanyards differ from self-retracting options in that they do not retract to remain taut at all times. In other words, when a worker equipped with a lanyard is nearer to the anchorage, there will be slack in the line, and the line will become tauter as the worker moves farther away from the anchorage. The slack is minimized, though, with a stretch lanyard.

Shock-absorbing lanyards don’t just stop falls. They also absorb the energy of a fall. Most lanyards include an adjustable web that will tear or stretch when a worker is falling — and not if they’re simply pulling on the lanyard. This feature minimizes the impact of a fall on a worker.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purpose of a safety lanyard in fall protection?

A safety lanyard is a key component in a personal fall arrest system (PFAS). It connects a worker’s body harness to an anchor point, ensuring that if a fall occurs, the lanyard will stop the fall before the worker reaches the ground.

How does a self-retracting lifeline differ from a standard lanyard?

A self-retracting lifeline (SRL) retracts and extends automatically, maintaining tension at all times. In contrast, a standard lanyard may have slack when the worker is near the anchor point, but it becomes taut as the worker moves further away.

What are the differences between single-leg and dual-leg lanyards?

Single-leg lanyards connect to a single anchor point and are suitable for limited movement areas. Dual-leg lanyards, also known as Y- or V-lanyards, allow for more movement and enable 100% tie-off by providing the ability to switch between anchor points without disconnecting.

What is a shock-absorbing lanyard, and why is it important?

A shock-absorbing lanyard is designed to reduce the impact force on a worker in the event of a fall. It includes an energy absorber that deploys during a fall, lengthening the lanyard and minimizing the shock to the worker’s body.

What should I consider when choosing a fall protection lanyard?

When selecting a fall protection lanyard, consider factors like the type of work, the required range of motion, and whether shock absorption is needed. You should also consider whether you need a single-leg or dual-leg lanyard, and if stretch or non-stretch material is preferable for your situation.
