A Tool Lanyard is a tether that is designed to act as an intermediate device between the tool or object and the anchor point. They allow a tool to be used whilst maintaining a direct connection that will arrest the fall if they are accidentally dropped in use. A properly tethered tool ensures the safety of those working around and below you, improves efficiency simply by ensuring that tools are handy and accessible and protects your tools by preventing impact damage when dropped.
This RGTL14 Coil Tool Tether is suitable for hand tools and objects up to 3kg in weight. It is made from a stainless steel coil coated with an extra thick PU coating that provides resilience over sharp edges and withstands heat. The main benefit of using a coil lanyard as opposed to an elasticated bungee type is its compactness when not in use, it doesn’t trail so is unlikely to catch against other objects. The Coil is combined with a lightweight swivel carabiner at each end that allows full rotational action to further prevent tangling and undue strain when in use.
Coil tool lanyard’s are fitted with lightweight swivel double action karabiners which close and lock automatically to prevent tools and objects from falling out of them. They also avoid twists in the lanyard when using pliers and screwdrivers which require rotation.

TOOL LANYARD GUIDELINES
• Match the weight rating: Always confirm your tool’s weight is within the Tool Lanyard’s `load-rating. Overloading is a primary cause of failure.
• Inspect regularly: Before every use, check the Tool Lanyard’s webbing, stitching, and connectors for any cuts, tears, corrosion, or damage.
Check the connection: Use a Tool Lanyard with a locking carabiner or a barrel lock to ensure a secure connection that won’t accidentally disengage.
• Connect to a reliable anchor: Attach the Tool Lanyard to a solid anchor point on your person (such as a work belt or harness loop-max. 3kg) or a fixed structure.
