Why use a Gravity Link

The Gravity Link stops falling objects and absorbs 90% of the energy.

Reduced impact force from a falling object will lower the risk of deformation on the anchor points, anchor line, and carabiners, which otherwise may lead to a sudden object drop. 

What are Gravity Link

Gravity8 takes drop securing to a new level and introduces the dynamic and ultra-efficient Gravity Link. The secondary retention is a preventive technical barrier made to mitigate the risk of a falling object hitting the ground. A free-falling object will fast generate a significant amount of energy.

What are Gravity Link used for

The unit is connected in-line with the secondary retention and will remain passive if the object is in its place. Should a situation arise, and the object fall out from its static position, the Gravity Link will be activated by the dynamic force of the falling object, and as the anchor line is stretching out, a major part of energy will be absorbed by the Gravity Link.

The Gravity Link is available in multiple sizes and can be tailored to work efficiently on any object that might come into a potential falling motion before they are stopped by a securing line.

What does the Gravity Link include

There are three product levels available:

1. The hardware product only; a complete Gravity Link including wires and connectors, ready to be attached to the object as a secondary retention

2. The product as described above. In addition, we can offer engineering work including stress and material calculations.

3. A complete delivery including the Gravity Link, engineering work, and on-site assembling of the actual objects by our personnel.
