Ergodyne Tool Lanyards: SQUIDS 3011 Retractable Tool Lanyard Dual Carabiner
Ergodyne tool lanyards and their corresponding accessories are ideal for construction workers, tradesmen, and anyone else who ever works at height.
The Squids® 3011 Retractable Tool Lanyard is a lightweight and extremely durable tethering solution designed to mount to a D-ring user’s belt or a separate anchor point. Using a retractable lanyard limits potential snag hazards compared to standard lanyards. This lanyard can tether hand tools weighing up to 8lbs / 3.6 kg to prevent falling objects when working at-heights.
The retractable tethering cord is made of high-strength, cut-resistant Dyneema® with a protective sleeve over the exposed cord to reduce wear and tear for a longer life. The durable ABS plastic housing is textured for better grip and is designed to protect the internal workings of the retractable. Featuring a tapered cord exit to limit the debris being retracted back into the housing with the cord. Even with its incredible durability these heavy-duty Ergodyne tool lanyards weigh less than 0.5lb / 0.22kg and measures 48in / 122cm when fully extended.
How to use Ergodyne tool lanyards:-
The anchoring end of the retractable features a swiveling carabiner connection for anchoring to d-rings or other locations. The connecting end of the cord has a patented Squids® double-action carabiner to secure to a hand tool up weighing to 8lbs / 3.6 kg.
A trigger switch allows you to set your working length and keep the lanyard at a fixed length, so you don’t feel a constant tension on your tool while getting the job done. To lock the cord in place, simply flip the trigger switch at the desired cord length. To retract, either flip the switch back or pull the lanyard out a bit further to release the lock allowing the cord to retract again
