The Chase Tactical 33" Personal Retention Lanyard (PRL) pairs 1-inch U.S. Mil-Spec tubular nylon with a KONG Frog Cable Clamp for secure, one-hand-releasable attachment during maritime and helicopter operations. Sewn together, the lanyard measures 33 inches (84 cm) including the Frog clamp, and stretches to 46 inches (117 cm) under load. It is Berry Compliant, manufactured in the USA, and meets the ANSI Z359.3 personal fall-arrest standard. Total assembled weight is 9.6 oz.

Who this is for

• Military and law enforcement personnel: operating in maritime or helicopter environments where a reliable, one-hand-releasable retention system is required
• Tactical professionals on rope or fast-rope operations: who need a lanyard that releases cleanly under maximum tension without fumbling
• Government and agency operators: who require Berry Compliant, Mil-Spec construction with a documented load rating and ANSI-certified safety standard

Compatibility with parent armor and gear systems

The loop-to-girth-hitch end attaches to a plate carrier, harness, or belt anchor point. The KONG Frog Cable Clamp on the opposite end connects automatically to a cable anchor when contact is made, then releases with one hand even under maximum tension. The 1-inch tubular nylon construction fits standard loop attachment points found on most plate carriers and tactical harnesses. If you need to confirm compatibility with a specific carrier or harness configuration, contact us.

Function

The KONG Frog Cable Clamp provides automatic cable clamping on contact with an anchor point. Dual release speed clips add a secondary safety layer. A braided internal shock cord absorbs sudden load spikes, reducing jolt force on the operator and the anchor. Chase Tactical's Mil-Spec bar tacking and reverse stitching reinforce every high-stress junction. The clamp is manufactured from high-grade aluminum and tested to 5,622 lbs. (25 kilonewtons). The lanyard meets ANSI Z359.3 standards for personal fall-arrest equipment.

Construction

The lanyard uses U.S. Mil-Spec tubular nylon, U.S. Mil-Spec thread, and high-quality bungee cord throughout. Berry Compliance means all component materials originate in the United States, meeting the requirements of 10 U.S.C. § 4862 for domestic procurement. Chase Tactical backs this lanyard with a limited lifetime warranty. Available in black only.
