Werner to Update Edge Fall Protection Products For Upcoming Code Changes
ITASCA, Ill. — With an eye towards recent code changes that will go into effect in August 2022, Werner has announced updates to the Bantam and Max Patrol™ Self-Retracting Lifeline families. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) approved Z359.14 for self-retracting lifelines (SRLs) on June 17, 2021 with the 2021 edition.
Although the code will not go into effect for nearly a year, Werner has already updated its Bantam and Max Patrol SRL product lines to comply with the new standard, which uses a heavier testing weight and higher strength requirements.
