Rigid Rail vs Wire Systems
Tether Track Rigid Rail Fall Arrest Systems mitigate the hazards of dynamic sag of wire rope systems by providing shorter free-fall distances, reduced risk of secondary fall injuries, such as swinging into obstacles, and no negative impact on a second worker in the event of a fall.
Track Profiles
Plain Track
Plain enclosed steel track provides smooth motion with the benefit of offering the most headroom of any track style.
Trussed Track
