Tractel Travflex® 2 – Horizontal lifeline system

TRAVFLEX® 2 – HORIZONTAL LIFELINE SYSTEM The Travflex® 2 has been specially designed for sheet metal or concrete roofs. Every user must wear shock absorbing lanyard with maximum arrest force of 900 lb. (4 kN). The Travflex® 2 is a single-cable horizontal lifeline system that is easy to install and can allow up to two users. The system is installed on custom interface plates when installed on roof metal panels. It is a hands-free system that does not require special tools for installation. The system comes with a visual tension indicator and an in-line INRS energy absorber. The Travflex® 2 single-cable system provides a smooth travel and allows the traveler to move freely over the intermediate anchors, minimizing wear and eliminating user assistance. The user’s hands remain free to accomplish whatever task is required. BENEFITS Installation on rooftops and walls Roof steel panels do not distort after stopping a fall Traveler passes over intermediate and corner anchors with no manual manipulation User can work on either side of lifeline Eliminates risk of wire-cable clips loosening and slipping End and corner anchors have additional anchor points FEATURES Controlled linear force with specialy designed anchor brackets and plates Two INRS energy absorbers Uses watertight, silicone rivets with neoprene seals Hands-free design with better ergonomics Wedge socket cable adjustment system Copper-aluminum anchors prevent fusing of the wire rope and allow the rope to slide through anchors effectively No need to dismantle the entire lifeline in the event of a fall, individual components can be replaced.
