A new lightweight version of Buckingham's popular 9-8 secondary lanyard. Features an aluminum snap hook and carabiner that meets the ANSI requirements for 3600 pound gates. At 2.2 pounds, it comes in 27% lighter than equivalent lanyards with steel hardware. Other Buckingham innovations include a twisted eye length adjusting device (LAD) to properly orient it on the users body belt and a red warning center to alert the user of excessive wear. A stitched eye allows the user to stow excess tail on a handline hook. A multicolored snaphook allows the user to easily distinguish it from the snaps on the SuperSqueeze™ or BuckSqueeze™. A clear plastic tube protects the rope when in use. Overall length is 8′. Also available in 6′, 7′ and 9′. Meets applicable ANSI, OSHA and ASTM standards.
