In addition to these printed labels, your DuraTech SRL will also have
a round brass tag affixed to the captive-eye on the load-indicating
carabiner. This tag is embossed with the serial number and either the
date of manufacture or the date of the last recertification. Do not remove
this tag – it is an important piece of back-up information in the event the
product labels are damaged or removed.

ANSI standards are voluntary consensus standards, and are
generally regarded among the best practices where fall protection is
concerned. Some states have incorporated one or more of the ANSI
standards by reference, meaning that they may be enforced by some
state or local agencies. Check with your State Department of Labor for
further details. ANSI standards are available for purchase through the e-
standards store at www.ansi.org.
