Who Needs This Product

Rodbusters and tower hands work with both hands because a positioning assembly carries their weight against the structure. Rebar positioning chains and webs connect hip D-ring to hip D-ring around the bar, with swivel hooks that follow body movement. Positioning is always used with a separate fall arrest system.

⚠

Positioning is not fall arrest. OSHA limits positioning systems to 2 ft of free fall and requires an independent fall arrest system. Run your SRL or Y-leg lanyard above the positioning assembly at all times.

Compliance Standards

ANSI Z359.3-2017

Applicable requirement for this equipment: ANSI Z359.3-2017.

OSHA 1926.502

Construction fall protection criteria for personal fall arrest system components, including connectors, lanyards, and lifelines.

Typical Applications

Rebar tyingHands-free positioning on vertical curtain steel.
FormworkPositioning on wall forms and columns.
Tower workPositioning at the workstation on towers and poles.
Transmission structuresBelt-based positioning per utility rules.

How to Use

Follow the FallTech instruction manual. The sequence below is an overview only.

  1. Connect hip to hip. The assembly runs from one hip D-ring, around the structure, to the other hip D-ring.
  2. Set the length. Choose the connection point or adjuster setting that holds you at working distance.
  3. Lean and work. The assembly carries your weight; both hands stay on the work.
  4. Keep arrest separate. Positioning is not fall arrest. A separate SRL or lanyard protects against a fall.
  5. Inspect the swivels. Hooks must rotate freely and gate-lock positively.

Inspection and Retirement

Inspect before each use, with a documented competent person inspection at least annually.

  • Chain or web: deformed links, cuts, jacket damage.
  • Swivel hooks: rotation smooth, gates lock, no cracks.
  • Connectors: no corrosion or wear grooves.

Retirement triggers: any fall loading, deformed links, hook damage, or a failed inspection.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does a rebar positioning assembly work?
It connects hip D-ring to hip D-ring around the bar or structure, carrying your weight so both hands work free. Swivel hook versions rotate with your body to prevent chain twist.
Is positioning the same as fall arrest?
No. OSHA treats positioning as a separate system limited to 2 ft of free fall, and you still need independent fall arrest, typically an SRL or Y-leg lanyard, above it.
Chain or jacketed web?
Chain shrugs off rebar wire, sparks, and abrasion for years. Jacketed web is lighter on the hips for long shifts. Both carry the same positioning ratings.
Swivel or non-swivel hooks?
Swivels follow your body as you lean and rotate, keeping the assembly flat. Non-swivel versions are simpler and lighter. High-production rodbusters usually run swivels.
