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™. Features a fabric wear guard to protect the rope from excessive wear. A rubber washer prevents wear guard from getting jammed in the length adjusting device (LAD). It is ideal for use on towers or other steel structures and remains flexible in colder climates. Meets applicable ANSI, OSHA and ASTM standards.
