We are a manufacturing company on Long Island, whose founder has addressed the concerns of several of his friends in the construction industry: “We have harnesses and lanyards, but no easy place to tie off.”

A mechanical engineer and inventor, he designed and patented a high-tech, 3½ lb tool that works like a clothes pin - easy to handle, easy to carry, and attaches to a beam in less than 10 seconds. This tool has been introduced to the electrical power industry and has been well-received by safety directors and workers alike. They find it easy
to carry and use. We believe this may be one of the answers to your problem. Please look at our website at www.beamrunner.com and feel free to contact me for further information.

The problem in the past was no easy way to tie off. New Technology as changed this.Used in conjunction with the workers' fall arrest equipment and carried in a thigh mounted holster it attaches to almost any structural steel in less than 10 seconds. Using only one hand to operate this allows the worker to hold on with the other hand.
