I did do the research before I bought the fittings for the jacklines. Most safety regulators are looking for a breaking strenth of just under 5000 lbs for safety harness equipment. The jacklines themselves are rated at 7000 lbs if I remember correctly. The stainless bow shackle is rated at 8000 lbs and the drop forged stainless pad eyes are rated for right around 5000 lbs. NOTE: I'm going by memory on these numbers so don't quote me. I appreciate your concern. I did do the research before I bought the fittings for the jacklines.
