Kevlar Arc-Rated Lanyard with Rebar Hook
The 913KR is the arc-rated lanyard for structure anchors: Kevlar webbing and a Kevlar-core SofStop absorber take the heat and arc exposure, while the large-throat locking rebar hook closes directly over bar, angle, and pipe at the anchor end.
Certified to ANSI Z359.13 and compliant with OSHA 1926.502 and 1910.140, rated for a 310 lb worker with 5,000 lb steel hardware.
Who Needs This Product
Kevlar webbing takes arc flash and high heat that would destroy polyester, making this the lanyard for energized and hot environments. Like every energy absorbing lanyard, it trades clearance for economy: generous overhead anchors are its home field, and the TurboLite+ PFL takes over when heights get tight.
Features
Kevlar Web and Absorber
Both the webbing and the SofStop core are Kevlar, keeping the whole load path arc- and heat-tolerant.
Locking Rebar Hook
The large-throat hook closes over rebar and angle iron that defeat standard snap hooks.
Energy Absorber
The absorber core expands under load, limiting average arrest force to 900 lb and capping deceleration at 3.5 ft per ANSI Z359.13.
Warning Flag
A visual indicator shows if the lanyard has been loaded in a fall, flagging it for immediate retirement.
Locking Hooks
Double-action locking hooks at both ends cannot open accidentally against a D-ring or anchor.
Steel Hardware
Hooks rated to 5,000 lb tensile keep the connections stronger than the standard requires.

Mind the clearance. A 6 ft energy absorbing lanyard needs roughly 17 to 18 ft of clearance below the anchor after free fall, deceleration, harness stretch, and safety margin. Run your numbers with our fall protection calculator before the first connection.
