Dorsal D ring
Dorsal D rings for fall arrest harnesses are the perfect hardware componets to connect your steel carabiners or steel snap hook.
Designed with durability and safety in mind, Dorsal D rings are made of high-quality materials to ensure your harness stays secure ay height.
Our D rings are easy to sewing on your fabic webbing custom-made.
D-rings get their name because they are shaped like a capital "D." The dorsal D-ring - the attachment point on the back of the harness - is the main connection point for fall protection and fall arrest lanyards. Its position high on the back ensures that, in the event of a fall, the worker is oriented in an upright position and the force of arresting the fall is safely distributed evenly throughout the body. Once a fall is arrested, the dorsal D-ring allows the suspended worker to remain upright with their weight centered while awaiting rescue.

Products Usage
When a worker wears the harness, the dorsal D-ring should sit between the shoulder blades in the center of the back. An improperly fitting harness can present a serious hazard because the position of the dorsal D-ring when the harness is in use is key to its effectiveness. If it's too high, it could strike the back of the worker's head during a fall; if it sits too low, a fallen worker can end up suspended face-down rather than falling in an upright position, increasing the risk of suspension trauma and secondary injury.
Always ensure your harness fits properly, with the dorsal D-ring falling in the center of your back between your shoulder blades and the harness fitting snugly enough to allow you to put your fingers - but not a fist - between your body and the straps.
