Strength and security in the military
Air borne units are paratroopers. Army aviation and infantry units can be fully integrated with other members of the combined arms team to form an air assault team that is powerful, flexible, and responsive. Massing a unit's combat power at the decisive time and place on the battlefield will have a devastating effect on the enemy. Their equipment must be secure, easy to use, dependable and light weight - especially considering the battlefield conditions they will encounter (precision timing, wind, cold, dust, explosions). Going into a battle situation, they need peace of mind regarding their equipment functionality in order to focus on the important task that awaits them. Special forces rappel down walls; parachute into dangerous situations so they need reliable, custom made, easy-to-use equipment. They are swift, deadly warriors and they need equipment that will help them keep their stealth abilities and be light enough so they won't be weighted down.
Functional and protective equipment at decisive times like these is mandatory. The equipment should conform to new ANSI Z 359.1-07ED standard. PenSafe manufactures a wide range of high strength connectors that are ideal for use in demanding situations. For instance the new PenSafe PincerTM has been engineered from the ground-up to remain secure and can be hooked and unhooked easily using one hand. When the Pincer is opened its design means that fingers do not obstruct the opening.
Aside from the Pincer PenSafe has several other high strength connectors that have large hooks suitable for hooking onto onto equipment. PenSafe strongly recommends that all components used in the field comply with the new ANSI Z 359.1-07ED standard that mandates hooks have a side load and face load strength of 3,600lbs, so they remain functional even when the hook is twisted and the gate is loaded. If you are not sure whether the components you currently use are compliant, it is best to replace them.
PenSafe provides a wide range of hardware for industry including a full range of ANSI Z 359.1-07ED compliant high strength connectors, snap hooks, form hooks, buckles, adjusters, D rings, anchorage connectors and carabiners.
