The Werner C311103 DeCoil Adjustable is a single-leg shock-absorbing lanyard whose adjustable length lets workers shorten the effective lanyard up to the anchor, reducing fall clearance in areas with limited below-anchor space while keeping OSHA-compliant maximum arresting force. It uses Werner's DCELL Shock Pack, has snap hooks, a 6-ft maximum length, a 1-inch polyester web, and a 130 to 310 lb capacity, and meets OSHA 1926.502 and ANSI Z359.13.

Why the Werner C311103 buys back clearance
The biggest hidden risk in a fixed lanyard is running out of room below before it arrests. The C311103 solves it with adjustable length: shorten the effective lanyard up to the anchor and you reduce the fall clearance needed in tight below-anchor spaces — while the DCELL Shock Pack still holds arrest force below 900 lb with its controlled tearing action. It keeps the compact DeCoil coil-style design that stays managed at the harness. As lanyards go, this is the tight-clearance single-leg pick, and the best fall protection lanyards guide and fall protection equipment guide cover how the pieces fit. It fits the lanyard to the space.
Safety first: this lanyard is only one component of a complete personal fall arrest system — 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 per OSHA 1926.502(d)(15). Shortening helps, but you still must calculate fall clearance: free fall based on the set length, the deployed shock-pack length, D-ring height, and a safety factor. A single-leg lanyard leaves you unprotected during anchor transitions. Capacity is 130 to 310 lb and arrest force stays below 900 lb. Retire the lanyard after any fall. Confirm requirements with the OSHA 1926 fall protection guide.
What the Werner C311103 listing documents
From the published specs: a single-leg design; an adjustable 1-inch polyester web; a DCELL Shock Pack holding arrest force below 900 lb; snap hooks both ends; a 6-ft maximum length; a 130 to 310 lb capacity; and OSHA 1926.502 / ANSI Z359.13 compliance. These are true adjustable lanyard credentials and a genuine decoil lanyard — a clearance-managing single leg lanyard.
How the Werner C311103 compares to other lanyards
For the fixed-length DeCoil, the Werner C311100; for the rebar-hook DeCoil, the Werner C311200; for the tie-back DeCoil, the Werner C311403; for another adjustable, the Elk River 35487; and for a low-profile single-leg, the Safewaze FS580 or FallTech ViewPack. The safety harness guide pairs the harness.
Building a complete fall arrest system
A lanyard is one of three parts. For the harness, the full-body harnesses collection; for anchors, the anchor points collection and roof anchors guide; for complete sets, the fall protection kits collection and kits guide; and the full fall protection collection, the lanyards and lifelines collection, plus self-retracting lifelines span every category.
Where it fits by job and crew orders
The C311103 suits construction and maintenance crews working over low-clearance decks who want to shorten the lanyard to the space — compare tool-lanyard options in the tool lanyards collection for dropped-object control. Set the length to buy back clearance, verify each anchor, and retire the lanyard after any fall. For crew orders, quantity purchasing runs through a free Amazon Business account — volume pricing, PO numbers at checkout, and tax-exempt eligibility for qualifying organizations, with the walkthrough linked in our footer.
Frequently asked questions
What is the Werner C311103 DeCoil Adjustable?
A single-leg shock-absorbing lanyard from Werner's DeCoil series with adjustable length and the DCELL Shock Pack. It meets OSHA 1926.502 and ANSI Z359.13, with snap hooks, a 6-ft maximum length, a 1-inch polyester web, and a 130 to 310 lb capacity.
How does the adjustable length help?
You can shorten the effective lanyard length up to the anchor, reducing the fall clearance needed in areas with limited space below the anchor, while maintaining OSHA-compliant maximum arresting force.
What is the DCELL Shock Pack?
Unlike a traditional stitched tear-strip pouch, the DCELL Shock Pack uses a controlled tearing action to decelerate a fall gradually, limiting maximum arresting force below 900 lb in a lighter, more compact package.
What is the capacity?
The listing states a capacity range of 130 to 310 lb - the combined weight of the worker plus tools and equipment must fall within that range for the shock pack to perform as designed.
What harness and anchor do I need?
Connect a snap hook to the dorsal D-ring of any ANSI Z359.11 full-body harness and the other to an anchor rated for 5,000 lb per OSHA 1926.502(d)(15). The lanyard alone is not a complete system.
How much fall clearance do I need?
Calculate total fall clearance before work: free fall based on the set length, the deployed shock-pack length, D-ring height, and a safety factor. Shortening the lanyard reduces free fall in tight clearance.
How is it different from the C311100?
Both are DeCoil single-leg lanyards; the C311103 is adjustable so you can shorten it to cut clearance, while the C311100 is fixed 6 ft. Choose the C311103 when below-anchor clearance is limited.
What does the DeCoil coil-style design do?
The coil-style design stays managed at the harness without the bulk of traditional web or rope lanyards, so it is easier to handle and keeps the lanyard tidy while you work.
What work is it for?
General construction and maintenance where limited clearance below the anchor makes an adjustable single-leg lanyard the safer choice.
When must it be retired?
Retire the lanyard immediately after it arrests a fall - the shock pack is spent - or if the webbing, stitching, or hardware shows cuts, burns, corrosion, or deformation. Inspect before every use.
Does it need inspection?
Yes - inspect the webbing, adjuster, DCELL Shock Pack, stitching, and snap hooks before each use, and have a competent person perform documented periodic inspections.
How do I order for a crew?
