Vaultex RFA100 BIA 10 Mtr Wire Rope Handle Carry Retractable Fall Arrester

Key specs: 10 m maximum working length, 4.8 mm stainless steel rope, polyamide housing, 100 kg weight capacity, arrest force up to 25 kN, EN 360:2002 safety standard, includes steel karabiner and swivel alloy steel snap hook, plus a conduit rope for rope management.

Attach the device to a certified full-body harness via the integrated connection point. Secure a compatible anchor point at or above your working level, ensure the rope path is unobstructed, and attach the device’s karabiner to the harness D-ring or lanyard connection. After setup, keep the device oriented so the rope feeds smoothly as you move and avoid kinks or tangles.

The unit uses a 4.8 mm stainless steel rope for strength and durability, protected by a tough polyamide housing that resists abrasion and weathering. EN 360:2002 compliance adds a recognized level of safety performance for fall arrest devices.

Suitable for construction, maintenance, painting, telecoms, electrical work, and any height-access tasks where movement along a rope is needed while maintaining fall protection within a 10 m span.

Before each use, inspect the polyamide housing for cracks, the rope for fraying or corrosion, and the connectors for wear or deformation. Check that the carabiner and hook operate smoothly and that the conduit rope isn’t kinked. Store in a clean, dry place away from chemicals and temperatures outside the recommended range.

The RFA100 is designed for 10 m operation with a 100 kg capacity. For longer reach or higher capacity options, you can explore alternatives such as Vaultex RFA120 (12 m) or Vaultex RFA150 (15 m) to match different job site needs. See alternatives here: Vaultex RFA120 12 m: https://fepy.com/product/vaultex-rfa120-12m-fall-arrester and Vaultex RFA150 15 m: https://fepy.com/product/vaultex-rfa150-15m-fall-arrester.

Choose based on the typical working height and the required rope length for your tasks. If you need more mobility or work at greater heights with fewer anchor repositionings, a longer variant may be advantageous. For shorter-range tasks or compact setups, the 10 m RFA100 can be more convenient and cost-effective.

The package includes the Vaultex fall arrester with the 4.8 mm rope, a steel karabiner, a swivel alloy steel snap hook, and the conduit rope as described. Depending on your site, you may also need a compatible full-body harness, anchor points, and any site-specific safety gear or training as required by your work regulations.

Always use a certified full-body harness, inspect all components before use, ensure the anchor point is rated for fall protection, keep the rope path clear of obstructions, and avoid exposing the device to chemicals or extreme temperatures. Do not use the device for activities beyond its EN 360:2002 ratings or outside the 10 m working length unless a longer variant is chosen.
