The system is designed to break away when a significant load is applied to the lanyard. This feature is to reduce the risk of users being pulled into moving machinery or being hung up on structures if a tool becomes entrapped. It is recommended that the system is not used on machinery whilst it is running; however in the case that it is the safety feature exists.

Klinch has many benefits over traditional tool lanyards. It allows you to use multiple tools without the lanyards becoming entangled, and to switch the tools between your hands effortlessly. Klinch tool tethers are a wrist lanyard and fixed lanyard all in the one system, which remains connected at all times during tool changeover. The Klinch system does not rely on coiled or retractable cords which means the tools are not always trying to pull out of your hands. This allows the user to drop the tool when on the wrist mount, and use their fingers to do fine work whilst the tool is held hands free.
Anyone! Klinch was design specifically for industries like construction, abseiling, high rise building maintenance, and boating, but anyone who doesn't want to drop their tools or wants to secure tools safely can use a Klinch. Klinch can be used around your home for a variety of everyday tasks such as cleaning the gutters, painting, or gardening.
