Such is the simplicity of the design concept that MSA Latchways® Engineered Vertical Lifeline Systems can be installed to follow the contours of the structure to which it is attached and so maximize its safety value in a working environment. Equally, the proven effectiveness of the system’s LadderLatch® & TowerLatch® units with its unique starwheel component provides workers with the security of being constantly attached to the system while also having both hands free to go about their duties. If a worker should fall from the system, the LadderLatch and TowerLatch units immediately locks onto the system cable and arrests the fall.
