Falltech 8388 Lanyard Overview

The Falltech 8388 is a shock-absorbing lanyard rated for a 310 lb weight capacity. It meets ANSI Z 359.15-2014, OSHA 1910.66, OSHA 1926.502, and CSA Z 259.2.5-2017 standards. The hardware is constructed from steel and features a black and blue colour scheme. It is designed for fall arrest applications in facility and traffic safety environments.

Upgrading Fall Protection Gear

This lanyard replaces worn or non-compliant fall arrest components that no longer meet current ANSI or OSHA requirements. The jump is worth it when existing equipment fails inspection or lacks the 310 lb capacity rating. It also suits workers moving from basic positioning lanyards to a dedicated shock-absorbing arrester. Buyers needing a self-retracting lifeline or a higher capacity rating should look elsewhere.

Integrating Into A Safety System

The steel hardware connects to compatible harness attachment points and anchorage connectors within a personal fall arrest system. It functions as the energy-absorbing element between the worker and the anchor. The unit frees the user from fall forces by deploying its shock-absorbing mechanism during an arrest event. Ensure the anchorage structure meets the required strength for the system.

Questions about this item

What anchor points or harness attachments does the 8388 lanyard connect to?

The lanyard uses steel hardware compatible with standard fall-arrest harness D-rings and rated anchorages that meet OSHA 1910.66 and 1926.502 requirements.

Which step is most often missed when installing the 8388 shock-absorbing lanyard?

Users frequently forget to verify that the anchorage point is rated for the 310 lb capacity and that the lanyard orientation follows the shock-pack deployment direction marked on the unit.

When must the 8388 lanyard be replaced?

Replace the lanyard immediately after any fall arrest event, if the shock-pack deployment indicator is visible, or if the webbing shows cuts, abrasion, UV damage or stitching deterioration per ANSI Z359.15-2014 and CSA Z259.2.5-2017 inspection criteria.
