Cheapest options, hardes to use and adjust properly. fingers between your leg and the strap. to keep you safe. This D-Ring is found on a l ANSI harnesses. It’s used for fa l a rest and should be placed directly between the shoulder blades. Tower harnesses have another D-Ring here. It’s the only other connection point which can be used for fa l a rest, like on a cable climb system. Unlike the Dorsal D, fa l distance must be limited to 2 feet or less. Side D-rings are used for work positioning. Never fa l a rest. A seat is a common feature on tower harnesses, and if you’re working in suspension, you’ l be glad you have one. Look for features like Markings, warnings, ratings, & geoMetry of connectors CompLianCe Thi stamp clearly identifies the standard which the hardware is manufactured to fo low. Typica ly ANSI Z359.1-2007 or Z359.12, although there may also be CSA or EN ratings stamped, as we l. Load Rating A load rating should be stamped on the long axis of the hardware. This shows wha the minimum break strength of the hardware is, typica ly displayed in pounds, tons, or kN. manufaCtuReR maRkings ID’s who made the hardware, lot #’s and other codes to help identify when, where, and who made the thing. These aren’t as much as a safety feature, as they are for troubleshooting if there’s ever a bad batch from the manufacturer. InspectIng cOnnectORs gate funCtion Check the gate for smooth operation. It should open smoothly. When released, it should close and lock properly. When closed, move gate back and forth to see if there is excess movement. If it catches, grinds, doesn’t close properly, or is difficul to operate, remove the unit from service. defoRmity Check the axis of the unit for signs of overloading or deformity. Any stretching, or stress marks warrant removal from service. Rust/CoRRosion Look over the unit for any signs of corrosion or rust. ANSI Z359 connectors use a zinc coating for protection that wears o f during normal use. Once the zinc begins to show signs of pi ting or co rosion remove from service. maRkings If any of the ratings norma ly stamped on the hardware are worn o f, the unit must be retired. physiCaL damage CONNECTORS 101 Inspect for any significant dents, nicks, cuts or gouges to the carabiner or snaphook. These can be indications of improper use. gate Ratings Stamped on the gate itself, usually as 3,600 lbs, 16 kN or 3.6 m. If your hardware is missing thi stamp, there’s a good chance you’re not in compliance. Don’t continue work with this gear! WaRnings Many manufacturers put reminders or warnings to help the user stay safe. Some examples include: a note to double check the gate is closed properly, red warning paint, or even a sku l and cross bones logo for open gates. ANSI Z359.12 – 2 09 Co necting Components for Personal Fa l A rest Systems Snaph oks and carabiner sha l be self-closing and self-locking and sha l be capable of being opened only by at leas two consecutive deliberate actions. They sha l be capable of withstanding a 5, 0 lbs. ( 2.2kN) tensile load. The gate sha l be capable of withstanding a minimum load of 3,6 0 lbs (16kN) withou the gate separating. A l marking sha l be in English, and be legible for the life of the component. Co nectors sha l be marked to identify: manufacturer, year of manufacture, load rating for major axis (minimum of 2 kN or 5, 0 lbs), load rating for gate marked on gate mechanism, for co nectors that are non-integral part (non-captive eye), then “ANSI Z359.12” is required. OSHA 1910. 6 & 1926.502 – Regulations for Carabiners and Snaph oks Co nector sha l be drop forged, pre sed or formed st el, or made of equivalent materials. They sha l have a co rosion-resistant finish, with sm oth surfaces and edges to prevent damage to interfacing parts of the system. Snaph ok sha l be sized to be compatible with the member to which they are co nected so as to prevent unintentional disengagement, or sha l be a locking type snaph ok designed and used to prevent disengagement. Snaph oks, unle s of a locking type designed and used to prevent disengagement from the fo lowing co nections, sha l not be engaged: directly to we bing, rope or wire rope; to each other; to a D-ring to which another snaph ok or other co nector is a tached; to a horizonta lifeline; or to any other object which is incompatibly shaped or dimensioned in relation to the snaph ok such tha the co nected object could depre s the snaph ok k eper a sufficient amoun to release itself. HOW TO PROPERLY DON, ADJUST, AND INSPECT A FULL BODY HARNESS FULL BODY HARNESS 101 23kN 13 YVN YOKE N-248G 50 kN 13 VWU geometRy donning THE HARnESS 1 Untangle and VisUally CheCk harness Grab the harne s by the dorsal D-ring and follow the chest strap to untangle. Closely look over the harne s webbing for abrasion, the hardware for exce sive wear, and the impact indicators to ensure it hasn’t been in a fa l. During normal work, connectors move around on anchorage points. If your hardware isn’t designed to be used with your anchorage point, or doesn’t have proper safety features, the gate could make contact with the anchorage point and potentia ly work its way open. Be sure your connector and anchorage point are compatible. This risk is magnified when the connection is at foot level. 15 0 lb SAFE WORKING LOAD/ASME B30, Lot #0115 tension diReCtion Snaphooks and carabiners are designed to be loaded on their long axis. Loading them inco rectly may lead to failure. Always be sure your hardware is being loaded in the proper direction. If you’re at risk of cross loading, or applying tension on the short axis, don’t continue working. one at a time Connectors are designed to go solo. A taching two snaphooks or carabiners to a single D-ring may cause problems. They can act on each other causing one to slip open, or ge twisted up, causing damage. Remember, one per anchorage point! Load Rating Hardware made for lifting and rigging wi l have a Working Load Limit, often abbreviated as WLL on the hardware, stamped in the metal. This means the hardware has been tested to be able to maintain a static load up to that rating. This rating can be listed in lbs, tons, or even kN. Don’t use carabiners designed for fa l protection for lifting and rigging! ansi ANSI Z359 compliant connectors are almost universa ly recommended. Hardware that has thi standard wi l have gates rated to 3,600 lbs. This helps ensure the gate wi l not fail if loading occurs. Multi-action gates are also required. To open, there must be at leas two separate actions made to release the mechanism. Look for the ANSI stamp before using the gear. the Many shapes, FunctIOns, and desIgns OF cOnnectORs There are many designs of connectors. From all the different shapes and materials of carabiners, to snaphooks and rebar hooks. Some have swivels, some have double and even triple action locking mechanisms. Made from steel, aluminum, or other alloys, they can be designed for fa l protection, lifting and rigging, or maybe jus to quickly connec two objects and not made for safety at a l!
