Product Information

Full details

The MSA Kernmantel Energy Absorbing Lanyard is designed for industrial workers who require a reliable connection between their safety harness and an anchorage point. Its primary benefit is the specialized energy-absorbing core that maintains fall arrest forces below 6 kN, significantly reducing impact trauma during a fall. While it provides excellent protection, users must ensure they have sufficient clearance distance below their work area to accommodate the deployment of the shock absorber during a fall event.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum fall arrest force?

The lanyard is engineered to maintain forces below 6 kN.

Is this lanyard safe for sharp edges?

Yes, this specific model is leading-edge approved.

Can I use the twin-leg version for 100% tie-off?

Yes, the twin-leg configuration allows you to keep one leg attached while moving the other.

How often should I inspect the lanyard?

Inspect it before every single use and have it formally inspected by a competent person annually.

What happens if I fall?

The internal energy absorber will deploy to limit deceleration forces. You must replace the unit immediately after any fall event.

Is the 1.8M length adjustable?

No, this is a fixed-length lanyard designed to minimize fall distance.

Troubleshooting

Visible signs of fraying on the rope sheath

Immediately remove the lanyard from service and replace it; damaged ropes can fail under load.

Shock absorber pack looks puffy or shows signs of deployment

The lanyard has been subject to a fall or extreme stress. Decommission it immediately.

Connectors/Hooks are sticking or not closing properly

Clean debris from the gate and spring mechanism with a dry brush. Do not lubricate with heavy oils.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reduces impact force to below 6 kN for enhanced user safety
  • Durable kernmantel construction resists fraying and environmental damage
  • Certified for leading-edge use, increasing versatility in construction sites
  • Available in single or twin-leg configurations for 100% tie-off capability

Cons

  • Requires professional inspection before every use
  • Not suitable for use if the shock absorber has already been deployed
  • Heavy-duty construction may feel stiffer than standard webbing lanyards

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up, attach the shock-absorbing end of the lanyard to the dorsal (back) D-ring of your full-body harness and secure the hook end(s) to a certified anchorage point capable of supporting 5,000 lbs (22 kN). Always ensure the lanyard does not pass over sharp objects unless the specific lanyard model is rated for leading-edge use. Care instructions include storing the unit in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. Regularly check the rope for signs of excessive wear, fraying, or discoloration. If the shock absorber pack appears expanded or torn, the lanyard must be removed from service immediately and destroyed.
