FallTech 6' DuraTech Mini Personal SRL, Single-Leg
The FallTech 72706 is a 6-foot DuraTech Mini personal self-retracting device (SRL-P), a compact single-leg SRD that clips to your harness for hands-free fall protection. The web lifeline retracts and pays out as you move and locks to arrest a fall in a short distance.
It is certified to ANSI Z359.14-2021 as a Class 1 SRL-P for one worker up to 310 lb. Choose the connector configuration (swivel eye, carabiner, and steel or aluminum rebar or snap hooks) for your anchor and harness.
Who Needs This Product
This product is a personal self-retracting device (SRL-P), the connecting component of a personal fall arrest system. A worker wears the compact SRD on the harness dorsal connection (or ties it off overhead) and the retractable web lifeline pays out and retracts with movement, locking to arrest a fall. You still need a certified full-body harness and a rated anchorage.
Features
Compact personal SRD
Small, light SRL-P that mounts on the harness dorsal for hands-free protection.
Retractable web lifeline
Pays out and retracts with movement and locks to arrest a fall quickly.
Class 1 rated
Certified to ANSI Z359.14-2021 for overhead or up to 5 ft below-D-ring tie-off without edges.

Swivel eye or steel carabiner at the housing, with steel or aluminum rebar, snap, or carabiner at the anchor.
Aluminum options
Lightweight aluminum hook options cut weight without giving up strength.
Everyday durability
The DuraTech Mini is built for daily construction and industrial use.
Class 1 SRL-P, mind the tie-off position and edges. This device is certified Class 1. It may be anchored overhead or up to 5 ft below the dorsal D-ring where no edge hazard exists; below-D-ring or leading-edge use outside that range requires an edge-rated device. Confirm required fall clearance and swing-fall with the Fall Protection Calculator below.

Typical Applications
How to Use
Follow the FallTech instruction manual. The sequence below is an overview only.
- Inspect. Check the web lifeline, retraction, lock, housing, and connectors before each use.
- Mount the SRD. Connect the housing to your harness dorsal connector (SRL-P) or to a rated overhead anchor.
- Connect the lifeline. Attach the lifeline hook to a rated anchor (or to the harness if anchor-mounted).
- Check the lock. Give the lifeline a sharp pull to confirm it locks, and let it retract smoothly.
- Confirm clearance. Verify required fall clearance and swing-fall with the calculator below before working.
Inspection and Retirement
Inspect before each use, with a documented competent-person inspection at least annually. Remove the anchor from service for any of the conditions below.
- Web lifeline: cuts, fraying, burns, or chemical damage.
- Retraction and lock: lifeline that will not retract or lock up on a sharp pull.
- Housing and hardware: cracks, deformation, or corrosion.
- Connectors and hooks: bent gates, corrosion, or gates that will not lock.
- Labels and RFID: illegible or missing markings.
Remove the anchor from service immediately after any fall-arrest event, and destroy retired equipment so it cannot return to service.
