Performing work at height involves a significant amount of risks for the workers who carry it out, with the greatest danger being the possibility of falling from different heights. For this reason, it is essential that all these workers have the appropriate Personal Protective Equipment available to carry out their tasks safely, while also using the appropriate fall protection systems, which consist of a set of devices that must be connected to each other using connectors, such as carabiners, an element that comes in different types and models, such as the Automatic Aluminum Carabiner Ø18mm 110x64mm 20kN - EN362 (ref AZ012T).

The Automatic Aluminum Carabiner Ø18mm 110x64mm 20kN - EN362 (ref AZ012T) is an element made from a lightweight aluminum alloy that has an opening of 18 mm and a weight of 90 grams, with dimensions of 110 x 64 mm and a minimum static strength of 20 kN. It complies with the EN 362 standard.

This type of element is essential to ensure a perfect connection between the different devices focused on protecting the worker from a possible fall from a different level, a danger that not only affects tasks performed two meters above the surface but also in jobs where work is done in confined spaces or underground, such as in wells, trenches, or excavations.

Carabiners are of great importance for the safety of workers, so a prior check should always be carried out before use to ensure that it functions optimally and shows no signs of oxidation, corrosion, or deterioration that could jeopardize its effectiveness. Additionally, a check of the closures should be performed since a failure in these could lead to a risky situation that could have fatal consequences for the worker.

Aluminum carabiners are one of the most commonly used options in the field of work at height as they are lightweight yet strong elements that can be easily used and handled by workers, who must have all the necessary devices and elements to perform their jobs with the least possible risk.
