What do you tower climbers use for lanyards and connecting hardware? I
recently bought a harness but the lanyard is a fall restraint lanyard
from the back. I have seen rope lanyards used but they look to be way
too long for best position holding on a tower. I have been looking at
and for a crocodile clamp style anchor like a Rebar positioning assembly
like this
FallTech 8250 Rebar Positioning Assembly - Swivel Steel Rebar Hook with
25" Gate Opening, Clevis-Pin Steel Snap Hooks, Grade 80 Chain, 23"
or similar: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NPV6FFK
Granted I am not an ironworker trying to anchor to an 18 bar wall but it
looked like a good lanyard to be easily clipped around a leg or cross
brace and keep me closer into the tower rather than leaning back 3 feet
like rope lanyards.
Any thoughts or comments?
Thank you.
