General Description/Why use this product?
The Globestock G.Stop lends itself to fall arresting for offshore and mining operations. The G.Stop fall arrester offers the user full protection from falling whilst allowing complete mobility when working at height. Should a fall occur, the G.Stop’s steel rope will be pulled out of the unit at an accelerating rate; when a rope speed of approximately 1.5m/sec is reached, the braking system is activated. Once activated, the fall is quickly and smoothly arrested, exerting minimal forces upon the user’s body. When the load is released the rope automatically retracts back into the fall arrester.
The G.Stop fall arrester can be mounted vertically above the user, in conjunction with a suitable anchorage point. It can also be used in conjunction with the G.Tripod.
