Double lanyard with fall absorber without carabiners
The ABSORBICA-Y 80 is a double lanyard with an integrated energy absorber, designed for progression along horizontal lifelines (textile or steel) or on elevated platforms, without passing intermediate anchors.

- Designed for progression along both vertical and horizontal lifelines (textile or steel) and for passing intermediate anchor points
- Absorbs energy in the event of a fall:
- Progressive tearing of the energy absorber’s webbing reduces the impact force on the user
- Suitable for users with a total weight between 60 and 140 kg including equipment - Maximum allowable length is 100 cm, including connectors
- Compact volume: very small and unobtrusive energy absorber design allows freedom of movement
- Durable fabric pouch with simple opening system protects the absorber from abrasion and contaminants while allowing regular inspection
- Two connection options to the harness, depending on use:
- Frequent connection/disconnection – with a carabiner held in position by the STRING positioning accessory (included)
- Semi-permanent connection – using the RING OPEN, whose circular shape ensures optimal positioning - Two types of connectors can be used at the lanyard ends: locking carabiner or MGO OPEN connector with large gate opening
