Harness Hardware

(Diagram 1)

Inspect harness hardware including buckles, adjusters, D-rings, Easy-Link, loop keepers, lanyard parking,

etc. These items must not be damaged, broken, or distorted, and must be free of sharp edges, burrs,

cracks, worn parts, or corrosion. PVC coated hardware must be free of cuts, rips, tears, holes, etc. in the

coating to ensure non-conductivity. Ensure buckles and adjusters work smoothly.

Webbing & Stitching

(Diagram 2)

Inspect webbing; material must be free of frayed, cut, or broken bers. Check for tears, abrasions, mold,

burns, or discoloration. Inspect stitching; Check for pulled or cut stitches. Broken stitches may be an

indication that the harness has been impact loaded and must be removed from service.

Stitched Impact Indicators

(Diagram 3)

The Stitched Impact Indicators are sections of webbing lapped back on themselves and secured with

a specic stitch pattern. The stitch pattern is designed to release when the harness arrests a fall or is

exposed to equivalent force. If an Impact Indicator has been activated (indicated), the harness

must be removed from service and destroyed.

Labels All labels should be present and fully legible. See Figure 14.
