Rigid Fall Arrest Systems
Rigid fall arrest systems have many distinctive advantages over traditional wire rope systems.
The rigid track design has less free fall distance since the stretch of the wire rope does not have to be factored into the equation. The worker can also decelerate to a complete stop in a shorter distance, which lowers the impact energy on his/her body.
Minimizing total allowable falls is the most effective method of preventing and reducing the severity of fall related injuries. Eliminating the bouncing effect of typical wire rope systems also reduces the amount and severity of secondary fall injuries.
A rigid horizontal system reduces hazard on multiple personnel systems. On a wire rope system, movement of the wire rope from one person falling may cause other workers to fall. This hazard is eliminated by the use of SPANCO track which maintains its rigidity, thereby not affecting other workers on the same system. O.S.H.A. Standard No. 1910.66 App C counsels caution when using wire rope for multiple personnel systems.
Need more headroom? Our rigid track design also saves up to three feet of headroom since there is no necessary allowance for sag.
