Malta Dynamics LE3311D 10-foot EdgeHog Dual SRL – 100% Tie-Off Extended Reach Protection
The Malta Dynamics LE3311D 10-foot EdgeHog Dual SRL offers the same trusted protection as the LE3311 but in a dual-leg configuration, allowing for 100% tie-off when transitioning between anchor points. Equipped with two 10-foot galvanized steel lifelines and durable alloy steel snap hooks, this system provides unmatched fall protection for leading-edge environments while allowing workers to move with maximum confidence across larger job sites. Weighing 11.2 lbs, this dual SRL setup combines an extended 10-foot reach with continuous attachment for total safety. For a single-leg configuration, see the Malta Dynamics LE3311 10-foot EdgeHog SRL.
Continuous Protection, Maximum Reach.
Understand why the Malta Dynamics EdgeHog series is the industry leader for 100% tie-off in leading-edge environments and how the dual 10-foot LE3311D manages complex fall arrest forces.
Quick-Action Dual Braking and Swivel Top Design
Each independent lifeline in the Malta Dynamics LE3311D system features a quick-action braking mechanism that stops falls instantly. The 360-degree swivel top ensures smooth, tangle-free movement, making it easier to shift positions without cable interference. The durable snap hooks provide a secure connection to your harness, allowing for versatile use across demanding work environments, particularly those involving sharp edges or foot-level tie-off challenges.
Engineered for 100% Tie-Off in Sharp-Edge Environments
The Malta Dynamics LE3311D is specifically engineered for Class 2 Leading Edge use, featuring two 3/16″ galvanized steel lifelines and rugged thermoplastic housings. The integral shock absorbers and specialized backpack-style energy absorber dissipate the extreme forces of a leading-edge fall, keeping arrest forces below 1,800 lbs. Fully compliant with ANSI Z359.14-2021 and OSHA standards, this system is the definitive choice for workers in the 130–310 lb range needing maximum mobility and security.
Comprehensive Compliance and Safety Inspections
Maintaining 100% reliability with the Malta Dynamics LE3311D requires a documented inspection before every shift. Perform an independent strike test on each lifeline to verify the braking mechanism locks immediately. Check the energy absorber and both snap hooks for fall indicators; if red stitching or deployment markers are visible, the unit must be removed from service.

Malta Dynamics LE3311D EdgeHog FAQ
1. What is the advantage of the dual-leg 10-foot configuration?
The Malta Dynamics LE3311D provides 100% tie-off capability with an extended reach. This allows workers to maintain a constant connection while transitioning between anchors over a much larger lateral work area than standard 6-foot dual-leg units.
2. Is the Malta Dynamics LE3311D rated for foot-level tie-off?
Yes. As a Class 2 device, it is specifically tested and rated for anchorage below the dorsal D-ring, making it mandatory for leading-edge work where overhead anchors are not feasible.
3. Why does the Malta Dynamics LE3311D use an external energy absorber?
Leading-edge falls generate higher arrest forces. The backpack-style energy absorber is designed to dissipate this energy safely while protecting the galvanized steel lifelines from snapping over sharp edges.
4. How does the 360-degree swivel top benefit the user?
The dual-swivel design prevents the two 10-foot lifelines from twisting around each other during movement, ensuring smooth payout and retraction throughout the workday.
5. What should I do if I anchor to oversized structural steel?
The LE3311D features universal snap hooks. If your anchorage requires an oversized gate, consider the Malta Dynamics LE3263D Dual Rebar Hook model.
6. What is the worker weight capacity for this unit?
The Malta Dynamics LE3311D is rated for workers weighing between 130 and 310 lbs, including all tools, clothing, and safety equipment.
7. How do I avoid common mistakes with the Malta Dynamics LE3311D?
- 1. Tangled Lifelines: Always verify the two legs are not twisted before anchoring to ensure proper braking performance.
- 2. Swing Fall Hazard: Avoid working too far laterally from your anchors to prevent a dangerous pendulum swing over sharp edges.
- 3. Clearance Calculation: Foot-level tie-offs with 10-foot lifelines require significant fall clearance. Always consult the Malta Dynamics LE3311D SRL Instruction Manual for clearance charts.
