Buying advice

When choosing a restraint rope or lanyard, prioritize ANSI Z359.2 certification, tensile strength, and stretch characteristics that match your work environment. For frequent repositioning, low-stretch ropes give more precise control, while dynamic stretch lanyards improve comfort on longer runs. Consider price-to-performance balance and ensure the hardware (snap hooks, carabiners) meets the same safety standards as the rope itself.
