Petzl Absorbica®-Y Tie-Back is a premium double lanyard featuring integrated intermediate tie-back rings and a compact energy absorber, designed specifically for vertical progression on very large structures and for safely passing intermediate anchor points.
The innovative TIE-BACK system allows the user to wrap the lanyard ends around structures with very large cross sections, ensuring reliable and continuous protection. The arms of the lanyard are elasticized to avoid hindering the user’s movement during progression, providing both safety and freedom of motion.
This lanyard is engineered to absorb energy effectively in case of a fall. The tearing energy absorber webbing limits the impact force on the user, making it suitable for individuals weighing between 50 and 130 kg. The progressive tearing mechanism also reduces deceleration forces on lighter users for enhanced comfort and safety.
The design emphasizes minimal bulk and durability. The compact energy absorber is encased in a durable zippered fabric pouch that resists abrasion and contamination, while the lanyard and pouch construction reduce the risk of cuts or severing when navigating edges. Users benefit from a captive steel carabiner with an automatic TRIACT-LOCK system for harness attachment and two large-opening MGO connectors for secure connection to metal structures.
This product meets rigorous safety standards including ANSI Z359.13, CE EN 355, CE EN 354, CE EN 362, and EAC certifications, ensuring reliable performance in demanding professional environments.
