Rigid Rail Fall Protection For Aircraft

The FLS FlexRail system includes a durable rigid fall protection system featuring an enclosed track with optional bypass capability. No other rigid rail fall protection system provides bypass capability combined with the enclosed track benefits of FlexRail.

The FlexRail System provides an unprecedented 1:100 movement-to-weight ratio. Even in high overhead situations, such as wide body hangars, the retractable lifeline remains overhead at all times completely eliminating any potential for an in-line swing-fall.

Re-Certification After A Fall

FLS offers complimentary service after a fall. After a fall, the retractable lifeline and full body harness may be returned to FLS for complimentary replacements. Most companies keep a spare retractable and harness onsite or we will rush replacements to you. The designated competent person onsite performs a visual inspection of the system in accordance with the inspection criteria provided at the time of certification and upon passing inspection, the system is ready for use.

Quality Fall Protection

Only the highest quality material is used in the manufacture and installation of each fall arrest system.

Aluminum track is made from 6061-T6 grade aluminum
Tracks are made from ASTM A570 or A607 grade steel
All connecting hardware is SAE J-429 Grade 5 material
Each system is engineered to the most stringent engineering standards
All fabrication welds are subject to inspection and dye penetrant or magnetic particle testing
Each system is load tested as part of certification for use

FlexRail Features

Optional Bypass Capability

With each user on their own enclosed track, multiple users gain full bypass capability. The result is increased safety and productivity.

Durable Overhead Fall Protection

All structural components are hot-dip galvanized or coated for added durability and corrosion control. The Teflon® wheels of the sealed bearing trolleys do not damage the coating, resulting in years of maintenance-free use.

Modular Flexibility

The system can be designed in unlimited lengths. This modular style makes it easy to add sections when you expand your MRO capacities. We’ll even design your system with your expansion plans in mind to further reduce costs when the time comes.

Reliable & Low Maintenance

The FlexRail enclosed track is by far the most reliable rigid rail system in use today. The enclosed track prevents dust and debris buildup, providing a virtually maintenance-free system. This is critically important in aircraft maintenance hangars where Foreign Object Damage (FOD) is a concern.

System Affordability

FlexRail is an affordable alternative to the old-style exposed flange trolley beam systems. In addition to the competitive initial cost, the system has little ongoing maintenance and provides increased productivity.
