FK-511 AC1 Tool-Lanyard & Shock-Absorber Accessory Pack

Kits & Accessories

The FK-511 AC1 is PGTEC's accessory pack of tool lanyards and shock-absorbing connectors, put together for contractors, tower climbers and maintenance crews who already own harnesses and fall-arrest blocks but need to complete their working-at-height kit with the small connectors that prevent dropped tools and soften the impact of secondary loads. The pack contains several coiled elasticated tool lanyards with plastic carabiners at both ends for securing drills, spanners and measuring equipment to harness tool loops, two flat woven energy-absorbing shock absorbers with forged steel snap hooks for connecting lanyards or tool tethers to anchorage points, and a selection of spring hooks, screw-gate carabiners and small attachment rings for custom rigging. The coiled lanyards extend to about 1.5 m under load and retract to a small stowed length, so they do not snag on scaffold tubes or rebar, and the shock absorbers reduce peak force on both the user and the anchor if a tool or short lanyard load is arrested suddenly. Supplied in a clear polybag with a contents card, the AC1 is the natural add-on to the PGTEC FK-509 roofer kit and FK-510 construction kit, and it is equally popular with wind-farm and telecom contractors who need to secure hand tools at 80 m on a tower. PGTEC backs the connectors with a five-year warranty and batch traceability.
