MAKING CONNECTIONS
Snap hooks and carabiners used with this equipment must be double locking and/
or twist lock. Ensure all connections are compatible in size, shape, and strength.
Do not use equipment that is not compatible. Ensure all connectors are fully closed
and locked.
Safewaze connectors (hooks, carabiners, and D-rings) are designed to be
used only as specified in each product's manual. See Figure 3 for examples of
inappropriate connections. Do not connect snap hooks and carabiners:
To a D-ring to which another connector is attached.
•
In a manner that would result in a load on the gate (with the exception of tie-
•
back hooks).
In a false engagement, where features that protrude from the snap hook or
•
carabiner catch on the anchor, and without visual confirmation seems to be fully
engaged to the anchor point.
To each other.
•
By wrapping the web lifeline around a substrate and securing to lifeline, except
•
as allowed for tie-back models.
To any object which is shaped or sized in a way that the snap hook or carabiner
•
will not close and lock, or that roll-out could occur.
In a manner that does not allow the connector to align properly while under
•
load.
Large throat snap hooks must not be connected to standard size D-rings or similar
objects which will result in a load on the gate if the hook or D-ring twists or rotates,
unless the snap hook is equipped with a 3,600 lb. (16 kN) gate.

COMPATIBILITY OF COMPONENTS/CONNECTORS
Safewaze equipment is designed for, and tested with, associated Safewaze
•
components or systems. If substitutions or replacements are made, ensure all
components meet the applicable requirements. Read and follow manufacturer's
instructions for all components and subsystems. Not following this guidance may
jeopardize compatibility of equipment and possibly affect the safety and reliability
of the system.
Connectors are compatible with connecting elements when they have been
•
designed to work together in such a way that their sizes and shapes do not
cause their gate mechanisms to inadvertently open regardless of how they
become oriented.
Connectors (hooks, carabiners, and D-rings) must be capable of supporting
•
intended loads.
Connectors must be compatible with the system or other system components.
•
Do not use equipment that is not compatible. Non-compatible connectors may
•
unintentionally disengage (Figure 4).
Connectors must be compatible in size, shape, and strength.
•
Self-locking snap hooks and carabiners are required.
•
Some specialty connectors have additional requirements. Contact Safewaze if
•
you have any questions about compatibility.

2. Gate Presses
Against
Non-Compliant Part
Using a connector that is undersized or irregular in shape (1) to connect a snap
hook or carabiner could allow the connector to force open the gate of the snap
hook or carabiner. When force is applied, the gate of the hook or carabiner presses
against the non-compliant part (2) and forces open the gate (3). This allows the
snap hook or carabiner to disengage (4) from the connection point.
