Product Description

Overview

The KUPO TL-17 is a retractable tool lanyard for tethering hand tools while working at height. It uses a 17 mm wide nylon lanyard body, elastic bungee section, two locking snaps, a fixed loop, quick release buckle clip, and steel hooks to help keep tools attached instead of falling into the work area below.

Why It Matters

Dropped tools are a real safety problem, not just an inconvenience. TL-17 gives riggers, technicians, and installers a simple tether that absorbs shock, keeps the tool moving freely, and lets the user detach quickly when switching tasks.

Key Features

  • Retractable bungee rope absorbs shock when a tethered tool is dropped
  • Two locking snaps and fixed loop give multiple secure attachment options
  • Quick release buckle clip supports fast on and off during tool changes
  • 17 mm wide lanyard extends from 74 to 137 cm for useful working reach without excessive slack
  • 3 kg loading weight covers common hand tools used in rigging and installation work

Applications

Use it for rigging calls, truss work, ladder work, stage maintenance, installation tasks, and any overhead work where a dropped hand tool could injure people or damage equipment.

Compatibility

Rated for tools up to 3 kg. Use with suitable tool attachment points, belt points, harness points, or tool loops according to the jobsite safety procedure.

Frequently Asked Questions

What tool weight can TL-17 handle?

The listed loading weight is 3 kg (6.6 lb). Do not use it for tools or accessories above that rating.

Does the bungee reduce the shock if a tool slips?

Yes. The bungee rope helps absorb the shock of a dropped tool, which is easier on the user and the attachment point than a rigid tether.

Can several lanyards be used at the same time?

Yes, the specification notes tangle-free use with other lanyards, but the setup still needs to be managed so tools do not snag or interfere with the work.
