Dual Ratcheting Trailing Beam Clamp 4″-14″ FallTech Aluminum Clip

Description

Product Overview

The FallTech Dual Ratcheting Trailing Beam Clamp is a modern safety clip designed for fall protection applications where flexibility and strength are paramount. Engineered to accommodate beam sizes from 4 inches to 14 inches, this clamp features a precision‑machined aluminum bar that provides a positive lock, ensuring the clamp remains securely in place during dynamic movements. The alloy steel jaws deliver superior tensile strength, while the nylon slider pads on the jaws allow the worker to maintain trailing mobility without compromising safety. Weighing just 2.14 pounds and measuring 19 x 1.5 x 4 inches, the clamp is compact enough to fit into tight spaces yet robust enough to meet demanding industry standards.

Usage

This clamp is ideal for a variety of construction and maintenance environments, including roofing, scaffolding, and industrial rigging.
