LINQ full-body harnesses have been engineered and certified to provide the wearer with maximum safety, comfort and versatility while working at heights. Each LINQ Harness is designed to ensure the body can tolerate and survive all forces placed on it in the event of a fall. Furthermore, LINQ webbing straps and the fall arrest hardware are ergonomically designed to minimise the impact on the human body in the event of a fall incident.
LINQ harness webbing has explicitly been woven to reduce slippage and ensure maximum buckle grip. Research and development analysed webbing and buckle design, including material composition, which was integral in achieving unrivalled comfort, safety and zero buckle slippage, even during extended wear.
Further protecting the wearer is the ergonomic placement of the chest strap, which is positioned below the breast line and the shoulder strap adjustment buckles and designed to minimise throat and facial injury in the event of a fall. Another feature of LINQ harnesses also intended to reduce the risk of throat, and facial injury is the inclusion of extended belay loops in preference over a frontal chest D ring. LINQ belay loops provide a more balanced weight distribution than the more commonly used frontal chest D ring.
Further, wearer protection is provided by the inclusion (as standard equipment) of LINQ's standing step suspension trauma strap - designed to alleviate and minimise post-fall Orthostatic Intolerance (suspension trauma syndrome).
Enhancing the unique combination of harness design features, the LINQ range Complies with AS/NZS1891.1 Standards.
Independently audited by third-party body SAI Global for AS/NZS 1891.1 for Standards adherence, the LINQ harness range boasts the quality assurance of the prestigious "5 ticks" mark of Certification.
Features
- Pebble Weave Webbing design provides maximum grip for buckles, eliminating webbing slippage and the need for continual re-adjustment
- High Tenacity UV stabilised webbing enhances resistance to solvents and UV light degradation
- Retro-Reflective Thread in webbing for improved visibility in low light
- Rear Barr D allows easier access and better weight distribution for twin retractable fall arrest devices
- The closed Loop Webbing system on the rear Dorsal Barr D maintains the positioning of Dorsal D in the event of a fall. Significantly reducing the risk of injury from hardware hitting the back of a worker's head
- Extended Belay Loops make the connection of hardware easier and also maintain absolute front and centre positioning as per AS/NZS requirements
- Sub Pelvic Strap integration along the line of Belay Loops places the worker away from hardware in the event of a fall, significantly reducing the risk of injury from hardware hitting the worker
- Articulated Chest Strap and shoulder adjustment points, designed for additional user comfort and female users, due to lower positioning of the strap
- Comes with Suspension Trauma Strap: One-piece Webbing with a quick connection buckle for faster deployment and connection in the event of a fall
- Confined Space Rescue Loops
- Tangle-free Triangle Back Mesh
- Padding under buckles
