KONG Back-Up Fall Arrest Kit

The KONG Back-Up Fall Arrest Kit is a configurable fall protection system designed for professionals working at height in construction, industrial maintenance, utilities, tower operations, and other elevated work environments. The kit combines the KONG Back-Up fall arrester with an 11 mm (7/16-inch) kernmantle lifeline and shock-absorbing connection system to provide a practical solution for personal fall arrest applications.

The KONG Back-Up fall arrester is designed to travel along the lifeline during normal movement and lock onto the rope in the event of a fall. The system incorporates a shock pack to help manage arrest forces and includes a dedicated lifeline equipped with a steel swivel snap hook and protective chafe guard.

Available in four rope lengths, the kit can be configured to accommodate different working heights and jobsite requirements. Customers can select a base fall arrest kit without a harness or add a KONG Sierra Duo or Kestrel PS harness in their preferred size.

Additional anchorage and work positioning accessories are available, allowing users to customize their equipment package for specific operational requirements.
