Edge Guard
The Edge Guard's (patented) design combines a rope friendly contact
surface with a strong angular shape to grip typical industrial plate edges.
Available in two versions, the 10cm for a single rope and the 30cm for two ropes.
Made entirely from polished stainless steel with rope friendly contact surfaces, its angular shapes on the end plates and load bearing surfaces are there to
make the most efficient use of the forces created when a rope is loaded. When used on plate edges such as steel toe boards, the four triangular ‘teeth’ on
the end plates grip the edge with a camming action. The more rope pressure applied to the EDGE GUARD the firmer onto the edge it locks, reducing its potential for movement.
- Versatile, compact and lightweight with a stainless steel body for a longer service life
- The angled end plates keep the rope contact and resultant forces within the footprint of the Edge Guard, making it very stable in use
- When used on plate edges such as steel toe boards, the ‘teeth’ on the edge plates hook onto the edge with a camming action
- The more pressure the rope applies to the Edge Guard, the more it grips onto the edge, reducing its potential for movement
- Each Edge Guard is supplied with an adjustable securing cord and a spare length of securing cord
