Description: An important note about harness expiration dates and why they do not exist for Sala harnesses:You have probably heard it too. Invariably someone will state that a harness has to be removed from service and destroyed after five years of use. I have heard of inspectors cutting up harnesses on the spot if they were older than five years.The short answer to this question is, "No." There is no blanket requirement from OSHA, ANSI or the manufacturers that states harnesses need to be destroyed on the fifth anniversary of their in-service date.If you want proof, go look in your harnesses user's manual. For example, DBI-SALA states: "The functional life of DBI-SALA harnesses is determined by the work conditions and maintenance. As long as the product passes inspection criteria, it may remain in service."So where did the five year myth come from?ANSI has two standards that address fall protection. The ANSI Z359 family of standards and the A10 standards. A10 addresses construction and demolition and one of the requirement listed in an older A10 standard was that unless the manufacturer specifies otherwise, harnesses should be removed from service after five years. Z359 (which is intended to apply to both general industry and construction going forward) does not include that language.In short, the harnesses that I am selling do not have an expiration date. They are brand new, and unused. These are beautiful harnesses and you can see the quality immediately. Do not hesitate to purchase a brand new, top-notch harness because it has a manufacture date a few years old. You'll get a much better, more durable, more comfortable harness for less money by buying harnesses from me. The only reason to retire a Sala harness is because it failed an inspection. Ive got 3 of these size small exofit dbi-sala 1110893 arcflash harnesses. 1 of the bags has been opened to take my pictures and check the manufacture date. The one I opened was manufactured in November 2017. Each harness comes with the original bag, manual, and carrying/storage bag. These harnesses comply with the following: OSHAANSI Z359.11 from 130 to 310 lbsASTM F887 Free domestic shipping in the continental US through Fedex Ground.

DescriptionProduct descriptionExoFit™ XP Arc Flash Harnesses are perfect for use in any industry where high voltage electricity is a concern. That’s because all DBI-SALA™ arc flash equipment has been tested to perform in accordance with the stringent ASTM F887-05 Standard Specification for Personal Climbing Equipment. Ultimate Comfort The ExoFit XP incorporates new material technology to deliver the ultimate in comfort. Its state-of-the-art 3-D mesh lining allows moisture to evaporate and cool air to circulate throughout the shoulder, back, hip and leg pads. This padding is removable and completely washable - another industry first. The cushioned leg and hip straps offer comfort and additional security during a fall. The “soft” edging prevents chafing and the lightweight webbing is strong without feeling stiff and coarse. Ease-of-Use The ExoFit XP’s superior “X” design wraps around the wearer for the ultimate in no-tangle donning and comfortable security. The spring loaded “stand-up” dorsal D-ring ensures an easy connection to a lanyard or SRL without straining to reach it. The harness incorporates a 5-point adjustment system and an adjustable dorsal D-ring for a perfect fit every time. Our industry-first quick-connect buckles are now color coded (silver leg buckles and black chest buckle) making donning as easy as 1-2-3. The “easy-grip” end tabs provide something to hold onto when adjusting the straps. Total Safety Another industry-first is the built-in impact indicator on the dorsal D-ring. Integral lanyard keepers serve two functions; provides a connection point for your lanyard when not in use, and for added safety it will snap-free upon “snagging” eliminating trip-fall hazards. Web strap keepers also prevent dangerous entanglements. A properly positioned pelvic strap distributes forces during a fall.From the ManufacturerDBI-SALA 1110893 ExoFit XP Arc Flash harness, Nomex Kevlar, PVC coated hardware, pass thru buckles, back and leg Nomex/Kevlar pads (size SM).
