Individuals working in areas with a risk of falling and choosing fall protection PPE as the control measure must always wear and use a properly fitted safety harness.
All IKAR safety harnesses meet the relevant standards, including EN361:2002, EN361:2002 & EN358:2000, or EN361:2002 & EN1497:2007.
IKAR safety harnesses equipped with overhead rescue attachments are tested to EN1497:2007, while their attachment points are tested to the requirements of EN361:2002. When used with a retractable fall arrester mounted on a tripod for confined space work, the overhead attachment point is guaranteed to be safe and suitable for the task.
IKAR safety harnesses are renowned for their superior materials and craftsmanship, which are highly valued by customers. These high-quality components make cleaning and maintenance straightforward, ensuring ease of use.
Proper use is key to extending the lifespan of the safety harness.
Cleaning IKAR harnesses can be done with mild soap suds followed by rinsing with clear water. Alternatively, they can be machine washed at a maximum temperature of 40°C using mild detergent without fabric conditioner. For machine washing, place the harness in a water-permeable bag to protect the machine from metal fittings, ensuring the spin cycle is turned off.
After washing, allow the harness to dry in a well-ventilated, dark area, away from direct heat sources.
Thanks to the versatility of our product range, we can provide every customer with a safety harness tailored to their specific needs.

IKAR Safety Harness Sizing Guide
All IKAR safety harnesses are manufactured in a "standard" size with adjustable leg loops, chest straps, and shoulder straps (except the IKG1, which does not have shoulder adjustment).
As a general guideline, the "standard" harness can typically be adjusted to fit individuals weighing between 65-130kg. However, exceptions may occur depending on body proportions.
The ability to fit and adjust the harness correctly depends more on height, chest, and thigh dimensions than on weight. Due to the design and construction, exact "TO FIT" measurements cannot be provided.
In extensive field trials, the "standard" harness size has been shown to fit 99% of users. For those rare cases where it does not, we can manufacture smaller, extra-large, or custom-made harnesses. Please contact us for details.
If you require a larger size, you can request a "BB" (Big Boy) harness. Similarly, for smaller sizes, request an "SB" (Small Boy) harness. Both are made to order at a slight additional cost and may have longer delivery times as they are custom-made in our sewing factory in Germany.
