Description
Globestock G.Stop 28m Fall Arrest Block
A reliable solution for fall protection, this Globestock G.Stop Fall Arrest Block can provide safety to your workers when carrying out height work operations.
Should a fall occur, the self-retracting lifeline will pull out of the block at an accelerating rate. When a speed of 1.5m/second is reached, the braking mechanism is activated, and the fall is quickly arrested.
Offering complete safety to a worker, this device can be mounted either vertically above the user or horizontally alongside them.
How It Works
The G.Stop 28m Fall Arrest Block functions on a simple yet effective principle. In the event of a fall, the self-retracting lifeline is pulled out of the block at an increasing speed. Once the cable reaches a velocity of approximately 1.5 meters per second, the internal braking mechanism activates. This rapid response ensures that falls are arrested quickly and smoothly, minimizing the risk of injury to the worker.
Key Features
- Shock absorbing brake mechanism
- Stopping distance 0.6m to 1m
- Auto-lock karabiner with fall indicator

Conclusion
The Globestock G.Stop 28m Fall Arrest Block represents a significant advancement in fall protection technology. Its combination of rapid response, smooth arrest, and versatile mounting options make it an excellent choice for businesses prioritizing worker safety at height. By investing in this reliable fall protection solution, companies can provide their workers with the confidence and security needed to perform their duties effectively and safely.
Remember, while the G.Stop 28m offers superior protection, it should always be used as part of a comprehensive fall protection system, including proper training, risk assessment, and adherence to safety protocols. With the right equipment and practices in place, working at height can be conducted with significantly reduced risk, ensuring the well-being of workers and the success of operations.
