New Titan T-BAK Shock-Absorbing LanyardAssures Safety in Tie-Back Applications

Smithfield, R.I. (September 8, 2003) Designed for tie-back use, the new Titan-by-Miller T-BAK Lanyard with a pack-type shock absorber is engineered to withstand the forces that can occur during tie-back use.

Convenient and easy to use, the new Titan T-BAK Lanyard combines the features of a lanyard and an anchorage connector into one product, which reduces inventory, simplifies training and inspection, and ensures that workers will always have an anchorage connector. For greater abrasion resistance, the new Titan T-BAK Lanyard is constructed with special polyester webbing with 9,800-pound tensile strength.

Available in 6-foot single- or twin-leg web lanyard styles, Titan T-BAK Lanyards include shock-absorber packs that keep fall arrest forces at or below 900 pounds.

The new T-BAK lanyard is designed with a forged sliding D-ring and an auto-locking carabiner for tie-back applications. A locking snap hook connects to the back D-ring of a harness.

The complete line of Titan products meet industry compliance requirements and include the consistent, quality workmanship that has become synonymous with the Miller brand name.
