Product Overview
The FP64 Scaffolding Kit is a professional-grade fall protection system designed for the rigours of the modern construction site. When working at height, equipment reliability is paramount; this kit provides the technical assurance required for those operating on scaffolding and elevated platforms where constant attachment is a mandatory safety requirement.
This comprehensive set includes a 2-point Comfort Plus harness for ergonomic support, a double lanyard with an integrated shock absorber to mitigate impact forces, and robust scaffold hooks for secure anchoring. The entire system is supplied in a sturdy nylon drawstring bag, which serves as a protective storage solution against the dust and debris typical of a busy site.
Key Features
- 2-Point Comfort Plus Harness: This harness is engineered for long-duration wear, providing both front and rear D-ring attachment points for versatile safety configurations.
- Double Lanyard with Shock Absorber: The twin-leg design allows for a '100% tie-off' approach, meaning you remain connected to a secure point even while moving between anchor points.
- Integrated Shock Absorber: In the event of a fall, the absorber deploys to reduce the force exerted on the body, significantly lowering the risk of serious injury.
- Large Scaffold Hooks: These oversized connectors are designed to clip easily onto scaffolding tubes, providing a fast and secure connection without the need for additional adapters.
- Nylon Drawstring Bag: A practical inclusion that keeps all components together, protecting the webbing from sunlight and contaminants during transport.
Design & Performance
The design of the FP64 kit focuses on the balance between safety and user comfort. The harness is constructed from high-tenacity polyester webbing that is both durable and resistant to abrasion. As a substantial and robust kit, it is built to withstand the heavy-duty demands of industrial use while ensuring the wearer can move with a necessary degree of freedom.
The performance of the double lanyard is central to its design. By utilizing two legs, the user can navigate complex structures by unhooking one leg while the other remains securely fastened. This 'Y-lanyard' configuration is the professional standard for scaffolding work, providing peace of mind during transit at height.
Why No Customisation?
As this is a safety-critical fall protection system, we do not offer customisation or branding on the harness or lanyards. Altering the webbing through embroidery or applying heat-transfer prints can weaken the synthetic fibres or obscure vital safety information and inspection labels.
Maintaining the integrity of the material is essential for compliance with safety regulations. Any modification to the structure of the harness could potentially lead to equipment failure in a fall event, which is why we supply this kit in its original, tested form.
Use Cases
This kit is specifically tailored for scaffolders, steel erectors, and construction professionals who require continuous fall protection. It is ideal for work on high-rise structures where moving between levels and navigating across platforms is required.
Beyond scaffolding, it is an appropriate choice for any work-at-height scenario where a secure anchor point is available and a twin-point connection is necessary to maintain safety during movement.

Practical Advice
Before every use, it is imperative to perform a pre-use inspection of all components. Check the webbing for any signs of fraying, cuts, or chemical damage, and ensure the hooks and snap hooks operate smoothly without sticking. Ensure the harness is adjusted correctly to your frame; a loose harness can cause injury during a fall, while one that is too tight will restrict movement and circulation.
Caring for your product
Maintaining your safety equipment is not merely a matter of cleanliness; it is a critical safety requirement. Dirt, oil, and UV exposure can degrade the synthetic fibres over time, potentially compromising the structural integrity of the webbing. We recommend wiping the harness and lanyards down with a damp cloth and mild soap if they become heavily soiled.
Always store the kit in the provided nylon bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Failure to store the equipment properly can lead to premature ageing of the materials, which may cause the kit to fail its mandatory periodic inspections. Never use chemical cleaners or solvents on the webbing, as these can cause invisible damage to the fibres.
