Showtec Safety Cable 50 cm

Reaching new heights with safety cables: Par cans, speakers, moving heads, disco balls, trusses, mounts, projectors, flat screens – all these products have one thing in common. Once they are used, either statically or as a moving effect, in elevated positions or over people or crowds, you are required to use an independent secondary safety device in accordance with BGV-C1 and VGB regulations to ensure the safety of your venue's visitors. In all these cases, safety cables must be used to secure your equipment and ensure that secured static equipment does not fall more than 20 cm in an emergency, or that moving equipment does not fall more than 5 cm, to prevent excessive impact forces. Just as important as the safety cable itself are the links, carabiners, or catbiners, as the whole system is only as strong as its weakest link. That’s why our safety cables are also equipped with certified connectors to ensure safe use, as long as the cable and the link are handled according to their specifications. Safety cables can be used in single or double wire configurations to carry and secure their specified load. Please check the specifications with each cable to find the one that perfectly suits your needs. One important point: safety cables are intended to secure your equipment and should not be used for lifting devices. For that purpose, you can use our well-equipped Lodestar range.
