  • Why A Correctly Fitting Height Safety Harness Is Crucial

A correct fitting, comfortable harness is just as important for safety, as the components and hardware contained within the device. Safety mechanisms are useless if the harness is worn incorrectly or too loose.  

And when workers are wearing a harness several hours a day, having a product that can be adjusted easily and won’t rub and cause chaffing or undue pressure, is crucial.
 
The B-Safe Evolve range of harnesses address what industry experts believe are the most important factors, and many of these relate to how easy and well a harness fits.

 
COMFORT
Because some harnesses may need to be worn for several hours a day, comfort is obviously key.
 
Evolve Harnesses come with soft twill webbing and edging to avoid undue pressure and skin chafing.  Webbing is also anti-absorbent and water-repellent to keep the wearer cool and dry in moist environments. Just as important is the padding around the shoulder straps and leg areas, particularly in the event of a fall.  
 

EASE OF USE & DONNING
Lightweight, quick-connect buckles and stand-up dorsal D-rings are two key features to look for to maximise ease of donning and use.  
 
Evolve Harnesses consist of heavy duty aluminium quick connect buckles and large 22kN rated D-rings. The harnesses are also designed to stay in shape to minimise tangling, which also allows for better donning and the easier attachment of lanyards and other accessories.
 

ADJUSTABILITY
Sufficient adjustability which enables a wearer to fit the harness to his or her body shape is also very important.
 
Evolve Harnesses have multiple points of contact, with highly secure and heavy duty quick connect buckles (which lock without loosening) that make adjustment easy, yet secure and durable.
 

DURABILITY
A basic harness is fine for workers who need a harness every so often.  When a harness needs to be worn more often, a higher quality product is worth the investment.
 
Evolve Harnesses  are made with abrasion-resistant webbing, pads over high-wear areas such as shoulder straps, rigid belt loops, and heavy duty, corrosion-resistant hardware.
