3M 1161426 Comfort Vest Safety Harness Small 420 Lbs

Product Description

The 3M 1161426 is a comfort vest-style fall protection harness rated for a total working weight of 420 pounds. Built under the 3M Protecta line, it features a fixed back D-ring, quick-connect leg connections, and quick-connect chest connections to reduce setup time and in-shift readjustment. Moisture-wicking, breathable back padding with soft edging keeps the harness comfortable during extended wear. Auto-resetting lanyard keepers allow fast parking of snap hooks and carabiners. Impact indicators provide a clear visual cue during post-incident inspections, and protected labels support long-term identification records. This harness is sized for small-framed workers and is sold as a single unit.

The 1161426 is suited for general industry and construction fall protection applications where workers require a full-body harness with vest-style fit and comfort-focused design. Typical installation scenarios include steel erection, roofing, scaffolding, and elevated platform work. The low-profile suspension trauma straps are integrated directly into the harness webbing, making this a practical choice for jobsites where extended time at height is common. It is appropriate for use by safety professionals, construction crews, and trade workers subject to OSHA fall protection requirements.

Installation Notes

Fall protection harnesses must be fitted and inspected by a competent person in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1926.502 and applicable ANSI Z359 standards. Power down or de-energize adjacent equipment before working at height in electrical environments. Before each use, inspect all webbing, hardware, D-rings, and labels for signs of wear, damage, or impact indicator activation.
