It is available in two lengths: 80 or 150 cm versions (without connectors). The 150 cm version has elasticized arms to avoid hindering progression.

Description

• Designed for continuous protection when passing intermediate anchor points
• Absorbs energy in case of a fall:
  - tearing of the energy absorber webbing limits the impact force on the user
  - works with users who weigh between 50 and 140 kg
  - progressive tearing reduces the deceleration on lightweight users
• Minimal bulk:
  - compact energy absorber facilitates handling
  - the 150 cm version has elastic arms, to avoid hindering progression
• Abrasion resistance:
  - durable zippered fabric pouch protects the energy absorber from abrasion or contaminants while allowing for regular inspection of the absorber
  - lanyard and pouch reduce the risk of cuts and potential severing over edges
• Two options for installation on the harness, depending on use:
  - frequent connection/disconnection: with a carabiner held in the correct position by the STRING (included with the lanyard) or with a MICRO SWIVEL to avoid tangling
  - semi-permanent connection: with a RING OPEN whose circular shape ensures optimal positioning, or with a SWIVEL OPEN to avoid tangling
• (1) In compliance with maximum accepted fall distances More information in our technical tips at Petzl.com
