Hybrid Hog Dual-Class Self-Retracting Devices Meet Both Class A and Class B Guidelines
Introducing the Hybrid Hog, the new Dual Class Self-Retracting Lifeline (SRL) that gives you the advantages of both Class A and Class B retractables all in one. The Hybrid Hog comes in both a 20-foot Dual Class SRL and a 30-foot Dual Class SRL.
SRLs are a staple piece of personal fall protection equipment used to keep workers safe when working at heights in a wide range of industries. SRLs generally come in two versions — Class A and Class B — established by ANSI standard Z359.14-2012. Both types of SRLs limit the maximum peak arresting force to 1,800 pounds as required by OSHA (OSHA 1926.500 subpart M) when worn with a body harness, but the two classes differ on two key dimensions: maximum arrest distance and average arresting force.
