The Atom Xtreme 6-ft self-retracting lifeline (SRL) is the smallest and lightest fall arrest block in the world and one of a select few Checkmate products available in North America.
The Atom Xtreme’s lifetime is made of Dyneema webbing. It features three micro pawls that operate independently for faster lock-on. Its internal slipping brake controls the energy from a fall without the need for an external energy-absorber. The load-bearing steel chassis is internal and hot-rolled to provide a structural metallic core and protected by a durable composite external protective housing. The product’s swivel incorporates a fall indicator which clearly shows if the device has been subjected to a shock load and has a 360-deg. rotation and 180-deg. pivot to ensure the block remains in the correct orientation in any working condition. Connector options include steel and aluminum snap and rebar hooks. The alloy scaffold hook is rated for 5,000 lb and gate-rated for 3,600 lb. The 25/32” eye or the fall indicating swivel top connection allows connection to a range of karabiners and rebar hooks, and the external tail webbing allows for easy reach when attached to the read D ring.
The SRL is offered in single and dual configurations and accommodates a user weight of up to 420 lb. It meets ANSI Z359.14 2014 Class A and ANSI A10.32:2012 standards and OSHA 1920 and 1926 Subpart M.
