3M™ DBI-SALA® Smart Lock Self-Retracting Lifeline.

Self-retracting lifelines

When there’s nothing between you and the ground, you need a reliable, advanced self-retracting lifeline (SRL) to have your back – every time.

Once anchored, our SRLs extend and retract automatically, letting users move comfortably within an area while keeping lifeline tension to help reduce tripping, dragging and trip falls. Should a fall occur, a speed-sensing brake activates, arresting the fall. Various styles, configurations and lengths are available to suit almost any need.

Calculate your fall clearance requirements.
