CONNECTORS

What is a Connector ? A Connector is an important element of a Fall Protection System. The Connectors may be of two types- Anchorage Connector , which is at the termination end of the Connecting Element; and the Harness Attachment Connector , which is at the Harness end of the Connecting Element. Hooks and Connectors come with various unique features • Hooks and Connectors have a minimum Breaking Strength of 20 kN, and hence conform to the necessary norms. • These Connectors and Hooks are uniquely zinc electroplated that provides extended corrosion resistant property. • All the metal components are subjected to stringent methods of Inspection and Testing procedures. • A 100% Online Inspection, visual check of each and every component is done for proper functioning, and finishing.

Using the Connector Correctly

Press open or unscrew the lock

Open the gate by pressing it inside the body of the hook

Always lock the gate when connected

Advantages of Steel Screw Locking Karabiner • Reliability in harsh or dirty environments. • Immediate alert in case of wrong locking. • Features a threaded nut over gate which locks manually when desired by user. • Easy to use with one hand.
