The hallmarks of Wichard's range of four "ProLine" safety tethers are the use of extra-wide mouth ProSnap safety snap hooks equipped with the ErgoLockSystem which automatically closes and locks the snap hook, an overload indicator with built-in shock absorber, lightweight construction and replaceable webbing.
Additionally, each ProLine tether complies with ISO 12401:2009 and ISAF safety regulations (OSR).
This #7034 two leg Proline Elastic Safety Tether is equipped with three double-action ProSnap safety snap hooks. The harness attachment hook is color coded.
It has a short (1 m) flat webbing leg with a safety hook for attaching to an anchor point or jack line on the boat, and a long (2 m) elastic webbing second leg with a safety hook.
Extended length of the stretchable leg is 6-1/2 ft (2 meters).
The two leg design allows you to always maintain one point of attachment for increased safety.
Elastic, retractable, tethers are a Wichard innovation. They provide great freedom of movement as they retract and extend without dragging on the deck behind you.
