HCMH II Chest Harness
A low profile chest harness which can be used under a plate carrier. Made by bonded and laminated fabrics with bespoke variable width webbing.
The addition of the HCMH II Chest Harness to the HCMH II Waist Harness turns the system in to an EN 361 certified Full Body Harness that is certified at 150kg rather than the normal 100kg.
There is a rear riser strap that stops the Chest Harness from lifting up when loaded - this is an important safety feature that helps stop the plate carrier being forced upward into the throat or face under sudden load.
The Chest Harness attachment point allows a Helix Ladder Fifi to be attached to an operator can rest / use two hands to operate equipment when climbing a ladder.
A chest ascender can be attached using a low-profile sling system that lets the ascender be run on top of the plate carrier when the harness is underneath.
We are using the Kong Futura Body and Camp Turbo Chest Ascender as the main ascenders - the Kong because of its minimal size and the Camp because it is very smooth running.
