PN56(ME) Tower and Rescue Harness is made for professional tower climbing, fall arrest, work positioning, rope access, and rescue tasks. It includes dorsal, sternal, lateral, and ventral attachment points, giving technicians several connection choices during different stages of height work. Padded shoulder, waist, and thigh sections make longer periods of use more comfortable, while abrasion-resistant polyester webbing provides durability for demanding industrial sites. CED-coated metal fittings offer added corrosion resistance, with the Middle East specification listing more than 500 hours of salt-spray resistance. The harness weighs approximately 2.24 kg and includes tool loops on its work-positioning belt. Nassguard supplies Tower and Rescue Harness throughout Qatar and Doha for telecom, construction, oil and gas, industrial maintenance, utilities, and rescue applications.
More Details
A tower and Rescue Harness job rarely keeps a worker in one position. The technician climbs, reaches the work area, sets up a stable position, uses tools and, when needed, switches to rope access or rescue work. PN56(ME) supports this type of demanding height activity.
The Tower and Rescue Harness combines several attachment options in one full-body system. Dorsal, sternal, lateral and ventral connection points give trained users different ways to connect according to the task.
Telecom crews, maintenance technicians, utility workers, rescue teams and contractors can use PN56 around elevated structures. Nassguard supplies the harness throughout Qatar and Doha for professional work-at-height requirements.
What is PN56(ME) Tower and Rescue Harness?
PN56(ME) is a full-body harness for fall arrest, work positioning, rope access and rescue. The rear dorsal D-ring supports fall-arrest connections. A front sternal point gives the worker another connection option, while lateral points support positioning work. The ventral point helps trained users during rope-based access. This arrangement gives workers flexibility when the access method changes during the day.
Polyester webbing forms the main body of the harness, while padded shoulder, waist and thigh sections improve comfort. These features become especially useful during long climbing periods or when a technician remains supported in one position. Workers can adjust the shoulder and thigh straps to achieve a closer and more secure fit. PN56(ME) weighs approximately 2.24 kg.

Once they reach the work area, they can use the side attachment points for positioning. If the task shifts to rope access, the ventral connection gives them another practical option without changing the entire harness. The padded waist, shoulder, and thigh sections also improve comfort during longer work periods.
Polyester webbing, corrosion-resistant fittings, multiple attachment points, and relevant EN compliance make PN56 useful for telecom, utilities, construction, industrial maintenance, oil and gas, and rescue work. Nassguard supplies the Tower and Rescue Harness in Qatar and Doha for contractors and safety teams that need reliable equipment for professional work at height.
