The Squids 3002 Retractable Tool Lanyard features a hook loop belt /harness attachment on one end, and an auto-locking carabiner connection on the other end. This retractable lanyard is designed to tether hand tools weighing up to 0.5lbs / 0.23kg in a retracted state and prevents tools weighing up to 2lbs / 0.9kg from becoming falling objects. When attached to a belt or harness, the low-profile design keeps the lanyard out of the users way while working at heights. The retractable tethering cord is made of high-strength, lightweight and cut-resistant Dyneema to withstand the harshest conditions while limiting the weight a user carries with them. The ability to retract back into the housing limits the potential snag hazards that standard tool lanyards create. Textured for better grip and function, the durable, fiberglass-reinforced nylon housing protects the internal workings of the retractable design and the tapered cord exit limits the potential of concrete or other debris being retracted back into the housing with the cord. The fixed web slot on the back of the housing is designed to slip onto rated belts up to 3in / 8cm wide. TESTED TO BE TRUSTED Tested and qualified to the ANSI/ISEA 121 standard, these retractable tool lanyards have no equal. The retractable cord extends to 48in / 122 cm in total length with a patented Squid double-action carabiner secured to the connecting end. All tool lanyards are built to withstand defined weight limits and are easy to use by any worker to avoid accidental dropped objects that could cause damage, injuries or possibly death. Safety lanyards are a part of an overall fall protection plan to reduce the risk of falling objects and increase workplace safety. When working at heights, its essential to tether tools. These lanyards are also great for fishing, hunting, camping, hiking, boating and other weekend activities.
