Disposal
Service life and product obsolescence
WARNING: Fall arrest gear is designed to arrest a fall from height ONLY
ONCE! If subjected to an arrested fall, the gear must be withdrawn from service
and rendered unusable.
Note: The date on which the product is removed from the original packaging
for the first time becomes the 'date of first use' , which should be recorded on the
Inspection Record (see end of this manual). The specified working life begins
from this point.
• Due to the ingress of dirt and grit, chemical contamination, edge and surface
damage, UV-light degradation and general wear and tear, all fall arrest,
work positioning and restraint equipment manufactured from synthetic
fibres (webbing and/or rope) is subject to a manufacturer's statement of
obsolescence, which is a requirement of BS EN365:2004
• This equipment is subject to a maximum working life of 5 years from the
recorded date of first use, providing the product has been correctly stored,
maintained and subjected to regular inspections by a trained and competent
person
• New equipment may be stored for a maximum of 5 years from the date of
manufacture, as indicated on the product, and will still give the potential
5-year working life – providing it remains in the original manufacturer's
packaging and is used and stored in accordance with the instructions provided
• If the new product is stored for longer than 5 years unopened from the date
of manufacture, the maximum remaining working life will be reduced up
until 10 years from the date of manufacture, as indicated on the product.
For example, if the product is stored new and unopened for 7 years then it is
opened and used, the maximum working life of the equipment will be the
remaining 3 years
Note: Other reasons why the product may be considered obsolete include, but
are not limited to, changes of applicable standard, regulations or legislation,
development of new techniques, or incompatibility with other equipment.
