The MSA V-SHOCK® EDGE Self-Retracting Lifeline is engineered specifically for leading edge applications where workers face fall hazards near sharp or abrasive surfaces. Built with a high-impact green nylon housing for easy identification, this lifeline provides reliable protection while maintaining lightweight maneuverability. Designed to connect to the dorsal D-ring of a full-body harness, the SRL features galvanized steel cable, integrated energy absorption, and a visible fall indicator for enhanced safety monitoring. Its robust construction and sharp-edge rating make it ideal for work at height on rooftops, decks, steel structures, and other elevated environments.

Key Features

Leading Edge Certified: Designed and tested for foot-level tie-off and sharp-edge exposures over steel, concrete, and corrugated surfaces.
Galvanized Steel Cable: 7/32-inch (5.5 mm) lifeline offers exceptional strength and durability in demanding environments.
High-Visibility Housing: Rugged green thermoplastic casing enhances job site visibility and resists impact.
Integrated Energy Absorber: Minimizes fall arrest forces, helping protect both worker and equipment during a fall.
Visual Fall Indicator: Built-in indicator clearly shows if a fall has occurred and the device needs to be removed from service.
RFID-Enabled: Streamlines inspection tracking and asset management with integrated RFID technology.
Swiveling Anchorage Connector: Reduces lifeline twisting and provides smoother movement during use.
High Weight Capacity: Rated for users up to 420 lbs (190 kg), including tools and clothing.

Intended Use

Designed for construction professionals, roofers, steel erectors, and maintenance crews working near unprotected edges, this SRL ensures consistent fall arrest protection when overhead anchorage is unavailable. Suitable for use with MSA full-body harnesses and fall protection systems, it provides trusted safety performance in leading edge environments.
