Product Overview
The FP62RER Fall Arrest Kit is a comprehensive safety solution engineered for professionals who operate in environments where gravity is a constant, if unwelcome, companion. As part of our Height Safety range, this kit provides the essential components required to maintain safety standards when working at elevation. It is not merely a collection of items, but a coordinated system designed to offer peace of mind when the ground is further away than one might prefer.
Key Features
Two-Point Safety Harness: This harness features two points of attachment, allowing for a more secure fit and ensuring that forces are distributed across the body’s strongest areas in the event of a fall.
Single Lanyard with Integrated Shock Absorber: The shock absorber is a critical safety component, designed to dissipate the energy of a fall and reduce the impact force exerted on the user.
Versatile Attachment Hooks: Including both a snap hook and a scaffold hook, this kit offers flexibility for connecting to various anchor points, including larger diameter scaffolding tubes.
Nylon Drawstring Storage Bag: This dedicated bag ensures that your kit is kept together and protected from dust and debris when not in use, prolonging the life of the safety components.
Design & Performance
The components of this fall arrest kit are manufactured to meet the rigorous demands of industrial height safety. The harness is designed for a robust fit, ensuring that it remains comfortable during extended use while providing the necessary structural integrity. The use of high-tenacity materials ensures that the webbing remains resilient against the friction and wear typically encountered on a busy site.
The shock absorber and lanyard assembly are designed to work in tandem. While the lanyard provides the necessary reach, the shock absorber acts as a vital fail-safe, engineered to deploy and mitigate the physical trauma of a sudden arrest. This is a substantial, professional-grade kit that prioritises functional safety over unnecessary aesthetic flourishes.
Why No Customisation?
At MyWorkwear, we take safety as seriously as you do. This Fall Arrest Kit is a piece of life-critical Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). We do not offer customisation, such as embroidery or heat-sealing, on this item because any modification to the webbing or structural components can compromise the integrity of the materials. Our priority is ensuring that this equipment performs exactly as intended by the manufacturer when it matters most.
Use Cases
This kit is ideally suited for tradespeople working in construction, scaffolding, and roofing. It is also an essential requirement for maintenance staff who may need to access high-level plant or equipment. Whether you are navigating a scaffold or working on a pitched roof, this kit provides the necessary protection to meet site safety requirements.

Practical Advice
Before every single use, a thorough visual inspection of the harness and lanyard is mandatory. Check for any signs of fraying, chemical damage, or wear on the metal connectors. We recommend that the harness is fitted snugly; if it is too loose, the distribution of forces during a fall will not be effective, which rather defeats the purpose of wearing it in the first place.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the integrity of your height safety equipment is paramount for its long-term performance and your personal safety. If the harness or lanyard becomes soiled, it should be cleaned using only mild soap and water. Harsh chemicals or industrial solvents can degrade the synthetic fibres, rendering the equipment unsafe for use.
Always allow the equipment to dry naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources. Excessive heat can cause the fibres to become brittle. Once dry, store the kit in the provided nylon bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, as UV exposure can weaken the webbing over time. If the kit is ever involved in a fall event, it must be decommissioned immediately and replaced.
