SMT Series Professional Full Body Safety Harness The SMT Series provides a tiered safety solution for at-height operations, ranging from basic work restraint to advanced, high-mobility fall arrest. Engineered from high-tenacity polyester, these harnesses are designed to meet diverse industrial needs while prioritizing user ergonomics and visibility. 1. Product Selection & Comparison Choosing the correct harness depends on the specific nature of the task and the required fall protection strategy (Restraint vs. Fall Arrest). SMT-277 Single Hook Buffer Package Vertical Fall Arrest 2. Detailed Model Breakdowns The Fall Arrest Series (SMT-277 ) These harnesses are designated for high-risk environments where a free fall is a possibility. Shock Absorption: Both models feature an integrated Buffer Package (Energy Absorber) that deploys during a fall to reduce the impact force to safe levels. SMT-277 (Professional): A single lanyard system paired with a high contrast orange and blue webbing design for easier inspection and donning. 3. Technical Features & Ergonomics Across the entire SMT line, several core features ensure consistency in safety and comfort: Polyester Webbing: High strength synthetic material that resists weathering, chemicals, and UV degradation. Dorsal Attachment: A single rear D-ring supported by a reinforced plastic back plate ensures the lanyard remains positioned between the shoulder blades for proper body orientation during a fall. Full Adjustability: Each harness includes pass-through buckles on the chest, waist, and thighs to accommodate varying body types and seasonal clothing. Heavy-Duty Hardware: Equipped with corrosion resistant metal scaffold hooks and screw-gate carabiners for secure tool free operation. 4. Safety and Maintenance Guidelines Pre-Use Inspection: Always check webbing for frays, burns, or chemical damage, and ensure all buckles operate smoothly. Buffer Inspection: For SMT-277 ensure the buffer package has not been deployed or tampered with. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the polyester fibers.
