We’ve heard a lot of questions asking about the difference between the Daytona Big Block and the Daytona Big Block HD. Well, after scratching our heads, we got to the bottom of it. The HD version has a heavier duty snap hook, and is now the de facto standard.
The Daytona features:
- Priced 20% less than like-in-kind units
- Easy to carry
- High strength composite cable guide
- Stainless steel and non-corrosive components
- Quick-action braking system
- Manufactured in the U.S.A.
- Proprietary ABS reinforced housing
- Meets or exceeds all OSHA and ANSI standards
- Comes with swivel top, carabiner and tag line
- Can be ordered with rebar hook
- Reflective 3M stickers for easy recognition
1. Quality: The internal components of this retractable lifeline are comprised of high-end materials. The special coated brake pawl bolts are heat treated, grade 8 and impervious to salt water contamination.
2. Value: Other retractables of this quality are priced 20% or more higher than ours. Guardian’s Daytona Big Block brings our distributors and end users a better value than the competition, yet the quality is high-end.
3. Durability: The proprietary ABS housing is reinforced with an inner brace which provides greater durability. Internal components are made of aluminum, treated steel, and stainless steel parts. Critical parts are machined and void of any plastic components.
