Introducing the new MSA V-TEC™ Self-Retracting Lifeline

July 25, 2017

MSA's V-TEC Self-Retracting Lifeline (SRL) is the newest offering in MSA's range of fall protection product solutions.

The V-TEC SRL incorporates spring radial technology, the newest method of energy-absorption to be used in self-retracting devices within the personal protective equipment industry. The spring radial energy-absorber is precision-made and pre-engineered and does not require calibration or adjustment as seen in traditional SRL's which ultimately minimizes downtime, repair, and maintenance costs.

With new retraction dampening technology, the V-TEC SRL simply solves user pain points by preventing excessive lifeline retraction speed that causes pre-mature and accidental load indicator deployment, a common occurrence in the workplace. Additionally, the V-TEC SRL has a high-impact polycarbonate, clear casing which allows for easy visual inspection of the critical internal components that simplifies the pre-use user inspection process.

For more information on MSA's new V-TEC SRL, contact MSA Customer Service at 1-800-MSA-2222 or visit MSAsafety.com.
