Safety harnesses are typically made from either polyester or nylon webbing with alloy steel adjustment buckles. However, at Safety Harness Direct, we offer a wide selection of safety harnesses made out of a range of different materials, including specialist harnesses for working in unsafe conditions.
In this blog, we will go over the materials used in some of our safety harnesses and discuss how these materials ensure that our safety equipment is top-quality and safe for you to wear.
Standard Harnesses
Our standard 2-point harnesses are made from super durable materials, designed to offer excellent security when you’re working at height. For instance, our Front & Back D Harness is made from 45mm water-repellent polyester, featuring high-tensile steel alloy fittings, so you can be both comfortable and safe at all times.
Many of our 2-point safety harnesses also feature high-contrast stitching, making it easier than ever to identify broken threads when carrying out inspections!

Comfort Harnesses
Working at height can be particularly taxing on the body. That’s why we stock a range of specialist comfort harnesses, designed to provide support and security for your body while working at height for long periods of time.
For example, the MSA V-Fit Multi-purpose Harness is specially designed to contour to the body, including thick shoulder padding made out of breathable material to eliminate pressure points and chafing after a hard day’s work.
The polyester webbing on the leg straps of this harness also lies horizontally across the thighs, creating a more natural and comfortable fit.

Fire Resistant Harnesses
We know that in some construction scenarios, workers are exposed to molten materials, open flames and sparks while working at height. This is why we carry a selection of flame-resistant safety harnesses, designed to keep you safe even in extreme conditions.
Our Fire Free 4 Point Body Harness is made from aramid, a lightweight, high-performance synthetic fibre known for its strength and heat resistance.
Aramid is even the material of choice for aerospace engineers due to its ability to perform reliably under extreme conditions, so rest assured that this harness can be used in all sorts of different work environments!

Oil & Water Repellent Harnesses
We also offer a range of safety harnesses that are perfect for those who work in environments where they may be exposed to water and oil.
The Revolta 4 Point Harness by KRATOS is specially made using Revolta treated polyester to repel oil, water and dirt.
This Revolta coating helps to keep the harness clean and reduces the risk of damage caused by exposure to certain materials. This makes this harness the perfect choice for workers engaged in “besmearing” industries like water treatment, food processing or painting.

We also carry a selection of Revolta safety lanyards that are super durable and ideal for use in a variety of applications.
