product description
The Blocfor 1.8A ESD is an automatic fall arrest device designed to provide maximum protection while ensuring unparalleled ease of use. It is equipped with the exclusive ESD technology (End System Dissipator). This ESD system guarantees that the braking force remains below 600 daN even if the user falls while the strap is fully deployed. It provides optimal comfort and significantly reduces the impact on the user's body in case of a fall.
