The Elk River Flex-NoPac 35488 is a twin-leg energy-absorbing lanyard with aluminum Z-rebar hooks on both legs β lighter than steel while keeping a 3,600-lb gate strength β to reduce harness fatigue on rebar-intensive concrete work. Its double-locking Z-hardware exceeds OSHA's self-locking requirement, and the NoPac absorber holds arrest force to 900 lb or less, OSHA 1926.502 and ANSI Z359.13 compliant.

Why the Elk River Flex-NoPac reduces fatigue on rebar work
Two heavy steel rebar hooks swinging off your harness all day is real, cumulative fatigue β and it wears on rebar-intensive concrete crews. The Flex-NoPac addresses it with aluminum Z-rebar hooks that are lighter than steel yet keep a 3,600-lb gate strength, taking weight off the harness without giving up hook security. The twin-leg design delivers 100% tie-off, the double-locking Z-hardware requires two deliberate actions to open β exceeding OSHA's self-locking rule β and the NoPac absorber holds arrest force to 900 lb or less. As lanyards go, this is the lightweight rebar-work pick, and the best fall protection lanyards guide and fall protection equipment guide cover how the pieces fit. It is a rebar lanyard that spares your shoulders.
Safety first: this lanyard is only one component of a complete personal fall arrest system β pair it with a compatible ANSI Z359.11 full-body harness at the dorsal D-ring and an anchor rated for at least 5,000 lb. The double-locking hooks exceed OSHA's self-locking requirement, and the aluminum hooks keep a 3,600-lb gate strength, but you still must calculate fall clearance: free fall, the deployed absorber length, D-ring height, and a safety factor. It is rated to 310 lb and limits arrest force to 900 lb or less. Retire it after any fall. Confirm requirements with the OSHA 1926 fall protection guide.
What the Elk River Flex-NoPac listing documents

These are true aluminum rebar lanyard credentials and a genuine twin leg lanyard β a lightweight rebar hook lanyard for concrete work.
