HA-108 N361R Rope-Access Suspension Seat Harness (EN 813)
Positioning & Work-Restraint Harnesses (EN 358)

The PGTEC HA-108 N361R is a rope-access suspension seat harness certified to EN 813 and compatible with EN 361 and EN 358 subsystems, purpose-built for industrial rope-access technicians, abseil window cleaners and steeplejack crews who spend long periods suspended from a single rope in a seated position. The harness combines a padded sit-board bridge with two adjustable leg loops, a dorsal fall-arrest D-ring, a sternal attachment point, two lateral positioning D-rings and a ventral attachment point on the chest used for working at a suspended work position. The leg loops are fully adjustable with double-back adjusters, and the padded sit-board transfers the body weight onto the thighs and pelvis rather than the waist. The webbing is 44 mm navy-blue polyester, and all hardware is forged anodised aluminium rated to 22 kN. Maximum combined user, clothing and tool weight is 140 kg. PGTEC recommends pairing the N361R with a PGTEC EN 1891 low-stretch rope, an EN 354 lanyard and an EN 357 descender. The harness is delivered with a gear sling point for tools, a storage bag and a multilingual manual covering rescue and suspension-trauma guidance. Each unit is individually serialised and carries a two-year PGTEC warranty. It is widely used by facade-access contractors, bridge painters, dam inspectors and industrial-window cleaning teams.
