Product Overview
When working at height, the priority is always to prevent a fall before it can occur. The Single Rope 1.5m Restraint Lanyard is a fundamental component of a restraint system, designed to restrict the wearer’s movement so they cannot reach a position where a fall could take place. This 150cm lanyard provides a fixed-length connection between a harness and an anchor point, offering a reliable barrier between the worker and a potential hazard.
Key Features
150cm Fixed Length: The generous length allows for sufficient movement within a safe working zone while ensuring the user remains a safe distance from edges or fragile surfaces.
Polyester Rope Construction: Utilising polyester ensures the lanyard remains resilient against the elements and maintains its structural integrity over time.
Dual Carabiner Configuration: Equipped with a carabiner at each end, this lanyard allows for a secure and swift connection to both the user's harness and the designated anchorage point.
Heat-Treated Alloy Steel: The carabiners are crafted from heat-treated alloy steel, providing exceptional strength and resistance to wear during daily use.
Design & Performance
The design of this restraint lanyard focuses on simplicity and strength. The rope itself is a medium-weight polyester, chosen for its high tensile strength and resistance to environmental degradation. By using polyester, the lanyard remains flexible enough for easy handling while being robust enough to withstand the rigours of a construction or maintenance environment.
The hardware is equally substantial. The carabiners are manufactured from alloy steel that has undergone a heat-treatment process. This enhances the metal's durability and ensures that the locking mechanisms remain reliable under repeated operation. While the total unit is relatively lightweight for the user to carry, the components are undeniably sturdy, providing the confidence required when working in high-risk environments.
Why No Customisation?
This Single Rope 1.5m Restraint Lanyard is a critical piece of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and is sold without customisation. To maintain the safety certification and structural integrity of the item, it is vital that the rope and hardware are not altered. Adding embroidery or heat-applied transfers could potentially damage the synthetic fibres or obscure important safety markings and serial numbers required for mandatory inspections. At MyWorkwear, we prioritise your safety above all else.
Use Cases
This restraint lanyard is intended for use in situations where a worker needs to be prevented from reaching a fall hazard. It is suitable for professionals working on flat roofs, scaffolding, or elevated platforms where a secure boundary must be maintained. It is important to note that this is a restraint lanyard and should not be used for fall arrest purposes where shock absorption is required.

Practical Advice
Before every use, always check the 1.5m length is appropriate for the specific task; a lanyard that is too long for the workspace will not provide effective restraint. Ensure that both carabiners are fully closed and locked before commencing work. It is also advisable to use this lanyard in conjunction with a compatible full-body harness to ensure maximum safety and compliance with workplace regulations.
Caring for your product
Maintaining the performance of your safety equipment is essential for ensuring continued protection. You should regularly inspect the polyester rope for any signs of fraying, cuts, or chemical contamination. If any damage is found, the lanyard must be removed from service immediately, as compromised fibres cannot be relied upon to hold under tension.
The alloy steel carabiners should be kept clean and free from grit. If they become dirty, wipe them with a damp cloth and ensure they are dried thoroughly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents for cleaning, as these can react with the metal or the polyester rope, potentially leading to unseen structural weaknesses. Store the lanyard in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent UV degradation of the synthetic material.
