Werner C311100 DeCoil 6 ft Shock Absorbing Lanyard
The Werner C311100 DeCoil 6 ft Shock Absorbing Lanyard is part of Werner's DeCoil lanyard series β a line of OSHA 1926.502 and ANSI Z359.13 compliant shock absorbing lanyards built around Werner's proprietary DCELL Shock Pack technology. Werner, best known for its ladder and fall protection systems, engineers the DeCoil series for construction professionals who need reliable fall arrest performance in an easy-to-handle, compact package. The coil-style design stays managed at the harness without the bulk of traditional web or rope lanyards.
Model C311100 features web construction with snap hook on the harness end and snap hook on the anchor end. Rated for workers weighing 130β310 lb, it connects to the dorsal D-ring of any ANSI Z359.11 full body harness and to an anchor rated for 5,000 lb per OSHA 1926.502(d)(15).

Werner DCELL Shock Pack β How It Works
Unlike traditional shock absorbing lanyards that use a stitched tear-strip pouch, the Werner DCELL Shock Pack uses a cylindrical deceleration element designed for a controlled, progressive tearing action during fall arrest. This approach delivers a more consistent deceleration force curve and results in a more compact shock pack than equivalent pouch-style designs. The result is a lanyard that is lighter and easier to manage on the harness without sacrificing energy absorption performance.
During normal use, the DCELL pack remains sealed and intact. In a fall event, the controlled tear deploys, decelerating the worker within OSHA and ANSI limits. Once deployed, the pack is spent β the C311100 lanyard must be removed from service and replaced.

Frequently Asked Questions
The DeCoil series uses Werner's DCELL Shock Pack, a cylindrical deceleration element rather than a standard tear-strip pouch. This results in a more compact, lighter shock absorber with a consistent deceleration force profile. The coil-style lanyard body also stays managed at the harness rather than dragging β reducing snag hazards on the job site.
Any ANSI Z359.11-compliant full body harness with a dorsal D-ring will accept the snap hook on this Werner DeCoil lanyard. Verify that the D-ring bar stock is at least 0.5 in. diameter and that the snap hook gates positively and locks before each use. Refer to ANSI Z359.12 for connector compatibility guidance.
No. The Werner DeCoil series is designed for fall arrest only β not positioning or restraint. For positioning applications (working at a fixed height on a vertical surface), use a separate positioning lanyard rated for positioning per ANSI Z359.2. Never use a fall arrest lanyard as a restraint tie-off or positioning device.
Werner recommends a maximum service life of 5 years from the date of first use, but the lanyard must be removed from service immediately if it: arrests a fall, fails inspection, shows visible web damage, or the DCELL pack shows signs of deployment. Competent persons must inspect the lanyard before each use per OSHA 1926.502(d)(21) and ANSI Z359.13.
Yes. The Werner C311100 DeCoil 6 ft Shock Absorbing Lanyard is designed to meet the fall arrest requirements of OSHA 29 CFR 1926.502(d) for construction environments. It limits maximum arresting force to 1,800 lb or less and total fall arrest distance to 18.5 ft or less when properly rigged with a compliant harness and anchor per OSHA specifications.
