## Overview

The Guardian 01320 Vertical Lifeline Assembly is a 50 ft OSHA-compliant fall protection system featuring a heavy-duty synthetic rope, ergonomic adjustable rope grab, and integral shock absorber. Engineered with 5,000 lbs tensile strength alloy steel hardware, it offers superior mobility and impact force reduction, providing professionals with reliable, extended-range fall restraint and positioning on challenging worksites.

## Description

A Vertical lifeline Assembly takes the place of a connecting device in the fall protection system, and provides greater range of access compared to a fixed length lanyard or SRL. Adjust the positioning device to move along the rope to limit fall risk as much as possible.

Review: I have used this mostly for work positioning and fall restraint on a metal roof that is steep enough that you just can't walk around on safely. Also have used on shingled roofs working close to edges. I'm not a fan of heights anymore and being restrained or being able to position myself feels really good using the side D rings on my harness. The rope grab works OK. It is a manual grab so you have to loosen and slide it up or down the rope as you move for work positioning. The clips seem to be good quality and can be worked with gloves on. If I needed the combination again (ie: lifeline assembly) I wouldn't hesitate to buy again. Think about how much rope you actually need also. When I clip on at the peak the rope (50 ft) for my roofs is a little long. However there have been times when I have had to clip on to something sturdy on the other side of the roof (no roof anchors) and glad I had the extra length. Compared to one trip to an emergency room this is really cheap insurance.
Review: C’était mon premier toit que je faisais. Avec ça je me sentais en sécurité, rien à dire. À la fin du toit, la corde à force de frotter au sol s’abime un peu, mais pour le moment, rien pour dire que je dois la jetter. Je vais facilement pouvoir l’utiliser à d’autre place

## Questions & Answers

**Q: One end attaches to the harness your wearing but what does the other end connect to? There's no steel hook embedded in my roof?**
A: I bought some hangers that you attach to your roof when I purchased this.

**Q: Is this the same rope that comes in the bucket kit?**
A: Yes

**Q: Can shock absorber be repacked ?**
A: no they are one time use!

**Q: Does the non clip end come already tied so that you can simply add a clip through a loop on the end?**
A: If I understand your question, then you are referring to the rope and not the lanyard. Thus, the non-clip end is braided into a loop and it has molded clear plastic protecting it. The intent is such that the non-clip end should not be modified or tampered for safety reasons. I hope this answer helps answer your question.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by D***E on 26 September 2022*

I'm an electrician who generally works by myself (self-employed) and had a job where I had to install a guy wire mount in the middle of a metal roof. I was very concerned about sliding off, so I invested in some relatively cheap insurance -- this Lifeline Assembly. I already had a harness, so I didn't need to purchase that. I was very pleasantly surprised at the thickness of the rope, but also its flexibility. I thought it would be much stiffer. I was concerned about how easily it would uncoil and if it would kink when I used it. After doing some research on YouTube, I bought an 18 gallon tote and fed the line into it haphazardly a length at a time, the way arborists do with a rope bag. It worked beautifully when I pulled it out over the roof and attached it to a tree with an OSHA-approved strap. The sliding clip moved easily up and down on the line when held open and locked onto the rope firmly when released. Gratefully, I never slid on the roof, so I didn't get to test the shock absorbing capabilities of the line, Hopefully I never will. This product is certainly well designed for its purpose and will give me peace of mind whenever I need to protect myself in a high environment.
