FallTech 8' FT-X Web Tie-Back Class 1 SRL, Single-Leg
The 84308 8 ft FT-X Web Tie-Back SRL, Single-Leg is a 8' FT-X Web Tie-Back personal self-retracting device (SRL-P), a compact single-leg SRD whose web lifeline retracts and pays out as you move and locks to arrest a fall quickly.
It is certified to ANSI Z359.14-2021, for one worker up to 310 lb. Choose the connector configuration for your anchor and harness. This is a non-leading-edge device; use an edge-rated SRL for sharp edges.
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 SRD on the harness dorsal (or ties it off overhead) and the retractable web lifeline pays out and retracts, locking to arrest a fall. You still need a certified full-body harness and a rated anchorage.
Features
Retractable web lifeline
The 8' lifeline pays out and retracts with movement and locks to arrest a fall quickly.
ANSI Z359.14-2021
Certified self-retracting device, Class 1 SRL-P.
Compact personal SRD

Choose your connectors
Configure the housing and anchor-end connectors for your setup.
Tie-back capable
Wrap the lifeline around a structural member and clip back to itself, so no separate anchor connector is needed.
Standard overhead use
A non-leading-edge SRD for overhead anchorage; use an edge-rated device for sharp edges.
Non-leading-edge SRD, Class 1 SRL-P. Certified for standard overhead use and NOT rated for sharp or leading edges. Anchor overhead or up to 5 ft below the dorsal D-ring where no edge hazard exists; for edges use a leading-edge device.

Typical Applications
How to Use
Follow the FallTech instruction manual. The sequence below is an overview only.
- Inspect. Check the lifeline, retraction, lock, housing, and connectors before each use.
- Mount the SRD. Connect the housing to your harness dorsal (SRL-P) or a rated overhead anchor.
- Connect the lifeline. Attach the lifeline connector(s) to a rated anchor (or wrap and tie back to a rated member).
- Check the lock. Pull the lifeline sharply to confirm it locks, then let it retract smoothly.
- Confirm clearance. Verify required fall clearance and swing-fall with the calculator below.
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.
- Lifeline: cuts, fraying, burns, chemical damage.
- Retraction and lock: a lifeline that will not retract or lock on a sharp pull.
- Housing and hardware: cracks, deformation, or corrosion.
- Connectors and hooks: bent gates, corrosion, or gates that will not lock.
- Labels: 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.

Who Needs This Product
This product is a confined space davit system - the rotating retrieval point that lowers and recovers workers and material over an opening. Confined space teams, utilities, and tank crews build their entry and non-entry rescue around it. It requires a rated winch or 3-way SRL, a full body harness, and a written rescue plan to form a complete system.
Features
360-degree boom
Swing the load over the opening and away to the landing zone.
Two integrated pulleys
Run a fall arrest SRL and a retrieval winch line simultaneously.
Permanent base options
Mount to steel, concrete, or a truck bed for mobile rescue.
Made in the USA
Patriot-line build for Buy American specs.
Removable boom
Lift the boom out when the entry point is not in use.
Tank and edge ready
Reaches over tank rims and leading edges.
