When working at height, a dropped tool is far more than a simple inconvenience; it is a significant safety hazard to those below and a potential loss of valuable equipment. The FP46GNR Coiled Tool Lanyard is engineered to mitigate this risk by ensuring your hand tools remain securely attached to an anchor point at all times. The coiled design is particularly effective for maintaining a tidy workspace, as it keeps the lanyard retracted and close to the body until the tool is required for use.
The core of this lanyard is constructed from robust steel rope, providing the essential tensile strength required to catch a falling tool. This steel core is encased in a PVC coating, which serves a dual purpose: it protects the metal from the elements and provides a smooth, flexible exterior that is comfortable to handle during a long shift.
In terms of performance, the "telephone cord" style coiling allows for excellent extension when you need to reach for a task, yet it snaps back to a compact, manageable length when idle. This ensures that the lanyard never becomes a trip hazard or a source of frustration, performing reliably in demanding industrial environments.
At MyWorkwear, we prioritise your safety above all else. Because this item is classified as height safety and fall protection equipment, we do not offer customisation services such as embroidery or heat transfer. Any modification to the structural components or the addition of external materials could potentially compromise the lanyard's integrity or obscure vital safety information and load ratings. Keeping the product in its original state ensures it performs exactly as the manufacturer intended during a critical moment.
This lanyard is an essential requirement for scaffolders, telecommunications engineers, and maintenance teams who frequently work on ladders, platforms, or gantries. It is perfectly suited for anyone who needs to keep lightweight hand tools tethered while maintaining full range of movement.
Established in 1976, MyWorkwear has decades of experience in providing the UK workforce with reliable safety solutions. Operating from our base in Telford, our experts understand the practical demands of the British workplace. We don't just supply products; we offer the technical knowledge needed to keep your team safe and compliant with current health and safety regulations.
Before beginning any task at height, we recommend checking that the weight of your tool is compatible with the lanyard's safe working load. Always ensure the carabiner is attached to a secure, rated anchor point on your harness or tool belt. While the coiled design is built to prevent tangles, it is good practice to ensure the tool's path is clear of obstructions before starting your work.
Maintaining the integrity of your safety equipment is paramount for long-term performance and user safety. We recommend a regular visual inspection of the PVC coating; if the coating is pierced or the internal steel rope is visible, the item should be decommissioned immediately to prevent unexpected failure during a drop event.
To clean the lanyard, simply wipe it down with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid the use of harsh chemicals or solvents, as these can degrade the PVC material over time. Furthermore, ensure the swivel mechanism on the carabiner is kept free of grit and debris to maintain its smooth, tangle-free operation.
