What is the model number of the fall arrest safety belt?

The models of fall arrest safety belts include T1PH, T2PH, etc. T2PH Universal Type II Climbing Activity Belt: This is a semi-open, semi-enclosed climbing harness. The difference from T1PH is that it has only one climbing hook, and the other is a closed safety hook. During use, the operator needs to first secure the safety hook and then attach the climbing hook, allowing the operator to pause and work midway. T1PH - Universal Type I Climbing Activity Belt: It is suitable for operators who need to climb heights to prevent falls during climbing, such as working on top of chimneys. The user first fastens the safety belt, with each hand wearing a movable climbing hook connected to the waist belt. The user alternately attaches the climbing hooks to the ladder or other climbing objects, always keeping one climbing hook secured to the ladder. In the event of a fall, the operator will be caught.
I just used a fall arrest safety harness while repairing the car. This thing is very useful for high-altitude operations like inspecting the roof or maintaining machinery. There are many models without standardization, such as the common Class II full-body type, like 3M's DBI-SALA series or Honeywell's Miller products. The specifics depend on the manufacturer and usage scenario. When choosing, make sure it complies with the EN 361 standard or OSHA certification to ensure a high safety factor. In the auto shop, we always keep a few spare parts and regularly check for wear to avoid malfunctions. My personal advice is not to go for cheap fake products online—it's more reliable to visit a safety equipment store in person to test the fit, as lives are at stake.
I was curious and looked into this. Fall arrest harnesses are not the same as those used by car passengers. There are significant differences in models, such as the Y-type or double D-ring designs used by mechanics when lifting vehicles. Brands like Petzl offer various options like the ProtecII, but there are no fixed model numbers. It's recommended to check the labels or consult an expert to choose the right one. When I tried it at the repair shop, I realized how important it is—it needs to be comfortable, breathable, and fit well to prevent accidents. Remember to read the manual and get some training before buying one yourself. Safety first, don't take it lightly.
Just helped a friend choose equipment. Fall arrest harness models are categorized by levels like 1A (basic type) or 2A (multi-functional type), such as Capital Safety's model 11230, but selection varies based on scenarios. Automotive factory workers often use these for maintenance tasks, requiring certification to ensure reliability. The key is matching the harness to working height and environmental factors like moisture resistance to minimize risks.
