FP40 - Web 3m Fall Arrest Block
Ensure instantaneous protection against falls with the Portwest FP40 Retractable Fall Arrest Block. Designed for supreme reliability, this compact device extends and retracts smoothly as the user moves, eliminating slack and reducing tripping hazards. In the event of a descent, the internal centrifugal braking mechanism locks immediately, limiting the fall distance and the resulting impact forces.
The 3-meter lifeline is manufactured from high-strength UHMWPE, providing incredible breaking strength while remaining remarkably lightweight and resistant to environmental hazards like water and sun exposure. The unit comes complete with a swivel snap hook and a connection carabiner, both featuring load indicators to alert the safety team if the block has arrested a fall. Easy to install and built to withstand the rigors of tough job sites, the FP40 is an essential upgrade for any modern safety kit.
