H500 Comfort Harness with Tongue Leg Buckles
This H500 Industry Comfort configuration pairs the upgraded comfort padding with the classic buckle layout: a mating chest buckle and belt-style tongue leg buckles on a back steel D-ring platform. It is the harness for crews that want all-day comfort without changing the hardware their workers already know.
Certified to ANSI Z359.11, CSA Z259.10, and compliant with OSHA 1926.502 and 1910.140, the H5IC31100 supports a 420 lb maximum working load with breathable pressure-relief padding, smart impact indicators, and a dedicated SRL web link.

S/M fits workers up to 5 ft 10 in and 170 lb, or up to 190 lb at 5 ft 6 in and under. Universal (L/XL) covers the broad middle and is the most popular size. XXL/XXXL fits workers over 6 ft who weigh over 270 lb, and any worker from 350 to 400 lb. Lighter boundary bands are overlap zones where either size fits: size down for a trim fit or up for room over layers. Some Miller spec sheets list these as Size 1 (S/M), Size 2 Universal (L/XL), and Size 3 (2XL and 3XL). Based on the manufacturer's published Miller sizing chart; verify fit per the user manual before first use.
Who Needs This Product
The Comfort trim with tongue legs is for full-day wearers who prefer traditional indexed leg adjustment: the thicker breathable padding carries the harness weight comfortably, and the tongue buckles set by feel with gloves on. Crews that want faster donning should look at the quick connect Comfort version, and occasional users can save with the Industry Standard trim.
Features
Comfort-Grade Padding
Upgraded ergonomic shoulder, back, and waist padding relieves pressure points through a full shift while staying breathable.
Classic Buckle Layout
A mating chest buckle and belt-style tongue leg buckles give the traditional adjustment many crews prefer.
Back Steel D-Ring
A steel dorsal D-ring provides the fall arrest connection, positioned between the shoulder blades.
Smart Impact Indicators
Clearly identifiable indicators show at a glance whether the harness has been loaded in a fall.
Dedicated SRL Web Link
A purpose-built web link at the dorsal position attaches personal SRLs cleanly, keeping the D-ring free.
Flex Webbing
Specially formulated webbing flexes with body contours for optimum comfort and freedom of movement.

Check the impact indicators before every use. A deployed indicator means the harness has arrested a fall and must be removed from service immediately. Adjust all five points so the dorsal D-ring sits between the shoulder blades before the first step up.

Typical Applications
Donning Overview
- Hold the harness by the back D-ring and shake it out so the straps hang free without twists.
- Slip the shoulder straps on like a vest, keeping the webbing flat against the body.
- Connect the chest buckle and position the chest strap across the middle of the chest.
- Fasten each leg buckle so the strap allows a flat hand between the strap and the leg, but not a fist.
- Work through all five adjustment points until the dorsal D-ring rests between the shoulder blades, then stow the strap ends.
Full donning and adjustment instructions are in the Miller harness manual linked in the documentation section below.
Inspection and Retirement
Inspect this harness before each use, and have a competent person other than the user formally inspect it at least annually per ANSI Z359.2. Check each point below and record the results on the inspection form linked in the documentation section.
- Webbing: cuts, frays, burns, chemical damage, UV fading, or broken stitching anywhere on the harness.
- Hardware: D-rings and buckles for cracks, corrosion, distortion, or sharp edges.
- Adjusters and keepers: slippage, missing keepers, or strap ends that will not stay stowed.
- Labels: present and legible, including the size, standards, and serial information.
Retirement triggers: any fall arrest event, any webbing or hardware defect found during inspection, or any condition where the inspector cannot positively verify the harness is fit for service.
