LC-203 EAL3 Adjustable Energy-Absorber Lanyard 2 m
Energy-Absorbing Lanyards (EN 355)

The PGTEC LC-203 EAL3 is an adjustable energy-absorbing lanyard built to EN 355 and EN 354, combining a tear-web absorber with an in-line aluminium adjuster so the effective working length can be tuned between 1.0 m and 2.0 m. The body is a 2 m length of 30 mm navy-blue polyester webbing running through a forged aluminium slider buckle, with a compact navy tear-web absorber in series, an aluminium screwgate karabiner at the anchor end and a galvanised steel scaffold hook at the harness end. The adjuster lets the user shorten the lanyard when working close to an anchor, reducing free-fall distance and clearance requirements, or extend it when reaching across a steel beam or around a structural member. The absorber itself deploys identically to the EAL1 series: in a fall, stitched seams tear progressively and hold the peak force below 6 kN, protecting both the worker and the anchor. The steel scaffold hook is sized to clip directly onto 48.3 mm scaffold tubes, I-beam flanges or rebar, while the aluminium screwgate closes the anchor end with a threaded lock that cannot self-open. The LC-203 is intended for riggers, steel erectors, telecom climbers and maintenance technicians who need a single lanyard that adapts to changing anchor positions rather than carrying several fixed-length units. Rated for users between 50 kg and 100 kg, the unit is bar-tacked, proof-loaded and batch-numbered like the rest of the PGTEC range.
