Falls from height are one of the fastest ways a job site turns into an incident report. This personnel safety net gives steel erectors, framers, and bridge crews a fall arrest net built and dynamic drop-tested to catch a worker before a fall becomes a serious injury. Constructed from knotted nylon mesh and rated to a 17,500 ft-lb dynamic drop under the ANSI A10.11 test method, it is available in rectangular panels and triangular corner-fit panels, so coverage can be sized to the actual opening on site instead of forcing every gap into a rectangle. This is a personnel fall arrest net built to stop a worker, not a debris net, so plan debris containment separately if your site needs it.
Key Features
- Dynamic Drop-Tested to 17,500 ft-lb: Rated per the ANSI A10.11 test method, using a 350 lb weight dropped three times from 50 ft.
- Knotted #120 Nylon Mesh: Three-strand twisted, high-tenacity nylon cord (210/378 denier) knotted into a 3.5″ square diamond mesh built to take repeated impact over the life of a project.
- Reinforced Perimeter Rope: A 1/2″ nylon synthetic border rope rated to 6,700 lb reinforces the full edge of the net for added structural integrity.
- Built-In Snap Hooks: Staggered snap hooks, spaced 36 in. on-center along the length and 24 in. on-center along the width, let panels link together as coverage needs grow.
- Rectangular and Triangular Panel Options: Choose a standard rectangular panel or a triangular corner-fit panel for irregular openings, without giving up the dynamic drop rating.
- Flame-Retardant and UV-Treated: Meets NFPA 701 Method 2 flame-retardant treatment and carries a UV rating of 300 kLy for extended outdoor exposure.
- Built to OSHA Fall Protection Requirements: Complies with OSHA regulations governing personnel safety net installations, backed by ANSI A10.11 dynamic drop testing.
Applications
- Fall arrest netting for steel erection, bridge work, and other structures where guardrails, decking, or a personal fall arrest system are not practical for every worker on site
- Perimeter and floor-opening fall protection on multi-story framing and commercial construction projects
- Corner conditions and irregular openings that a standard rectangular net cannot cover, using the triangular panel option
- Extending existing safety net fall protection coverage by linking additional panels together as work on a structure progresses
- Job sites and safety programs that need a documented fall arrest net meeting ANSI A10.11 and OSHA safety nets requirements
