Guardian announces new CR3-Edge Web Personal Self-Retracting Lifeline at World of Concrete 2026

Durable and lightweight, this Class 2 Personal SRL makes edge work simple.

Height safety leader, Guardian, is excited to introduce its new CR3-Edge Web Personal Self-Retracting Lifeline at this year’s World of Concrete being held in Las Vegas, Nevada, from January 20-22. This Class 2 Personal SRL is the perfect solution for leading edge applications — offering both superior performance and weight.

Engineered for demanding jobsite conditions, the CR3-Edge Web utilizes a proprietary webbing blend to create an extremely durable yet lightweight lifeline. The webbing has been tested beyond required ANSI Z359.14-2021 leading edge tests and withstands impacts on commonly encountered substrates such as concrete, steel and Type B roof decking, giving the worker greater confidence in a wider range of fall arrest applications.

“The CR3-Edge Web SRL-P has all the capability and safety of a cable lifeline at a fraction of the weight, mitigating worker fatigue and allowing users to be more efficient in the most demanding conditions,” said Chris Hillmann, senior product manager at Guardian. “Our proprietary webbing blend delivers exceptional durability making this an ideal solution for leading edge work where strength, mobility, flexibility and safety all matter.”

Additional features of the CR3-Edge Web SRL include:

• Dual-lock SRL connector for quick and easy installation onto most full-body harnesses
• Lightweight energy absorber that also protects from SRL impacts  for increased comfort
• Lightweight thermoplastic housing designed for durability in tough job site conditions
• Multiple hook options available, including steel or aluminum snap and rebar hooks

The CR3-Edge Web Personal Self-Retracting Lifeline is available for pre-sell now through authorized Guardian distribution partners, with shipments beginning in March 2026.

Attendees of World of Concrete 2026 are invited to visit Guardian in Central Hall, Booth C4447, to learn more about the CR3-Edge Web and connect with Guardian’s height safety experts.
