New Miller StopFall Fall Restraint Device Makes Climbing Wood Poles Easier and Safer

    FRANKLIN, PA, November 30, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Honeywell Safety Products announces the new Miller StopFall Fall Restraint Device, a work positioning and fall restraint system designed to help linemen easily and naturally climb (hitchhike) wood poles with a circumference from 20-in. to 60-in. Its minimal points of adjustment allow for quick and easy operation, while the unique spring-loaded cinching feature provides an effective non-slip system that keeps the unit in constant contact around the pole. Other features include:

- Unique, corrosion-resistant, stainless steel spring-loaded gaffs provide excellent stopping power on dry or wet wood poles.
- Integrated gaff pullers have an easy-to-grasp design, even when wearing heavy-duty linemen's gloves. Fingers are protected by keeping them away from the gaffs while climbing.
- Protective spring cover with non-metal zipper allows for easy access to inspect and clean spring components.
- Two-piece spring assembly prevents a continuous electrical path.
- Cam buckle webbing adjuster on inner strap provides easy one-hand adjustment for proper pole circumference.
- User-friendly design makes training quick and easy.

The Miller StopFall Fall Restraint Device meets OSHA and CSA Z259.14-01 Type A performance requirements.
