    Zippers in Fall Protection

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Did you know that April 29 was National Zipper Day!!!  Did you know that zippers have played an important role in safety over the years?  Well they have.  In celebration, where can you find zippers in the safety industry?

    Hello, Vest Harnesses use zippers to make these things easy as hell to put on.  If it wasn’t for the zipper, these harnesses would be just as much of a pain in the ass as every other harness on the market.

    Another use of the zipper… Safety Vests!  I’m detecting a theme here.  Yes, zippers are often used in safety vests.

    Other than that…  It’s pretty slim pickins’  Hmmm.  I guess I should have thought about this a tad bit more before I started writing this post.  I guess zippers also work for mouths…  or fing… hmph! hrrgh! mmrph!
