It’s not about the harness, a lot of it is about the block.
When it comes to ensuring your safety in fall-risk situations, it is crucial that the Energy Absorbing Block attached to the harness is rated to your weight. In the same way that trucks require stronger brakes than cars, heavier people need stronger blocks to absorb the energy of their falls.
Although our harnesses can hold many times the weight of an average person, the energy generated in a fall varies greatly depending on the weight of the person, so choose the block that’s right for you.
