DeWalt’s LANYARD READY™ Solution

When working on a job site, there are already so many things to watch out for on the ground, and the last thing you should worry about is something falling from above you. DeWalt, in honor of their safety week, is announcing their newest lanyard ready solutions to protect your tools, your batteries, and more importantly the workers.

Safely Secured

At-height jobs can make the smallest tool dangerous if it falls. The higher you get, the more you need to secure your tools. So, whether it be anchoring it to your belt or the scaffolding, it needs to be secure. With DeWalt’s LANYARD READY™ tool, it makes the job site a lot safer by attaching the cord to the lanyard system, and your tool is ready to go.

When moving from tool to tool or continuously setting it down the carabiner may slip off accidentally. Not with the multi-stage carabiner that offers a secure hold, which means that the carabiner will not accidentally unclip itself. Keep peace of mind knowing that when it is attached, it will stay attached.

Red indicator showing means the tool must see service before use on at-height jobs.

With the system firmly connected to the battery and the tool, even if the battery and tool were to detach from each other, you would not have to worry.

A nifty feature that this tool has is that on the spring system there is a red indicator. The red indicator will appear only when the connector overextends from a severe drop. Showing that this is the time to get the tool serviced as the lanyard system is now not functional.
