Fall protection for arborists and in forestry
Cutting limbs off a tree with a power saw while suspended in a tree can be dangerous. The danger can be lessened through proper training and by using the right equipment. The equipment should conform to the new ANSI Z 359.12-2009 standard, additionally high strength connectors should be easy to hook and unhook.
PenSafe manufactures a wide range of high strength connectors that are ideal for use in demanding situations. For instance the new PenSafe PincerTM has been engineered from the ground-up to remain secure and can be hooked and unhooked easily using one hand. When the Pincer is opened its design means that fingers do not obstruct the opening.
PenSafe strongly recommends that all components used in the field comply with the new ANSI Z 359.12-2009 standard that mandates hooks have a side load and face load strength of 3,600lbs. If you are not sure whether the components you currently use are compliant, it is best to replace them.
PenSafe provides a wide range of hardware for industry including a full range of ANSI Z 359.12-2009 compliant high strength connectors, snap hooks, form hooks, buckles, adjusters, D rings, anchorage connectors and carabiners.
