Suspension Trauma Straps (RGK42)
Part of our Height Safety Gear range, RidgeGear's RGK42 trauma straps are a vital safety accessory for those who use safety harnesses to work at height. These straps are designed to reduce the risk of suspension trauma following a fall. When a person is left hanging upright in a harness, blood will start to pool in their lower body. If the suspended individual is not rescued, they will be at serious risk of fainting and possibly even dying due to a lack of oxygen to the brain.
These trauma suspension straps allow you to 'stand up' in your harness while suspended, restoring normal blood circulation until you're rescued. This simple yet effective solution can significantly improve your comfort and safety while you're awaiting rescue.
Product Features:
- Designed to prevent suspension trauma after a fall
- Allows user to stand while suspended in a harness
- Compact and lightweight – won’t interfere with harness use
- Easy to fit to any RidgeGear safety harness
- Made from durable polyester
IMPORTANT: These trauma straps are not part of a fall arrest or rescue system and must not be used as such. They are intended for one-time use only and should be disposed of (along with the harness) after a fall. Regular inspection is recommended to ensure the straps remain in good condition.
RidgeGear's RGK42 trauma suspension straps are ideal for use in industrial, construction and maintenance environments where fall protection is essential. Make sure all users are trained in proper use and have practiced deploying the trauma straps before they begin working at height.
