Thor 3D and Other Marvel Comics
Rescue Equipment has become a huge issue in the world of fall protection recently. Yep, it’s apparently the most neglected area. It’s like having the house built, and although the roof is there it doesn’t have the shingles. So, it needs an upgrade and that’s exactly what manufacturers are doing.
One of the more unique items in the rescue line of fall equipment is the Thor Rescue 3D Retractable. What make it so special? It’s orange… And it’s perfectly suited for the laziest of jobsites. Well, not exactly lazy, but it does take a huge amount of stress out of the situation.
How does it work? How should I know. I just think it has a cool name. The Thor 3D. Not only does it sound like a comic book, it sounds like a comic book I want to read. Get on it Marvel! I want a 3-D sledge hammer rocketing towards my face…
Actually, I do know how it works, and it’s awesome. The Thor 3D works just like any other self retractable lanyard at first. The only difference is after the fall, this handy retractable lowers the fallen worker to the ground. Now, that is handy. No one else needs to be involved in the rescue until the worker reaches the
next ground level. I like the idea of not having workers clumsily hanging over the edge trying to lift up another employee. That spells disaster.
In a final bit of information for you anal retentive tech nuts, the retractable lowers the worker at the rate of 3 feet per second after the fall so there is no risk of suspension trauma.
If rescue equipment has been a concern for your company you might want to take a look at this retractable and keep an eye for the new Comic Book I’ll be submitting to Marvel. Oh, and if you’ve happened to use this retractable in the past let us know what you thought.
