Msa Safety vtohw-012-rj-o-tb V-tec Pfl Lanyard 6 Ft

Product Description

The MSA SAFETY vtohw-012-rj-o-tb is a twin-leg personal fall limiter (PFL) from the V-TEC PFL series, designed for overhead anchorage applications in construction, industrial maintenance, and elevated work environments. The lifeline is constructed from HMPE (high-modulus polyethylene) material, offering a 6-foot working length per leg and a rated weight capacity of 400 pounds. Configured as a self retracting lanyard, it allows workers to move freely while automatically limiting free-fall distance. Installation and inspection are handled by qualified fall protection technicians or safety personnel.

This unit is rated for overhead anchor points only and carries an ANSI SRL Class 1 designation under the 2021 standard, making it appropriate for single-person use in residential and commercial construction, tower work, industrial facilities, and anywhere overhead tie-off points are available. The twin-leg configuration allows continuous 100 percent tie-off when transitioning between anchor points. RFID capability supports asset tracking and inspection record management.

Installation Notes

Fall protection equipment must be installed, inspected, and used by personnel trained in accordance with ANSI Z359 standards and applicable OSHA regulations. Before connecting the lanyard, verify that the overhead anchorage point is rated for fall arrest loads and positioned to minimize free-fall distance and swing-fall hazard. Inspect the lifeline, connectors, and RFID tag for damage before each use, and remove the unit from service immediately if any component shows signs of impact loading, corrosion, or wear. This product is rated for overhead anchorage only and must not be used with side or sub-dorsal anchor configurations.
