HiiGARD Self-Retracting Lifeline for Sharp Edges
A self-retracting lifeline certified for use near a sharp edge.
Advantages and strengths
Unlike a standard self-retracting lifeline, this model is specifically designed and certified for foot-level anchoring, even with a sharp edge present near the fall point.
The swivel snap hook reduces cable twisting during the worker's lateral movements.
The thermoplastic housing protects the internal mechanism from dust and moisture found on outdoor jobsites.
A suitable choice for roofing work, where foot-level anchoring is often the only practical option.

Use
Built for sharp edges
This self-retracting lifeline has been tested and certified to withstand a fall that drags across a sharp edge, a common scenario during roofing or platform work.
Foot-level anchoring
Its certification allows anchoring at the worker's foot level, a configuration that is often more practical than overhead anchoring, but that requires a product specifically designed for sharp edges.
Rugged construction
The galvanized steel cable and thermoplastic housing provide proven durability in demanding outdoor environments.
Target audience
Recommended for roofers and workers operating near a roof or platform edge, where overhead anchoring is not always available.
