FallTech 8141 FT-Iron 1D Harness, Quick Connect | CSA Z259.10
FallTech 8141 FT-Iron 1D Standard Non-Belted Full Body Harness
CSA Z259.10-2018 Class AThe FallTech 8141 FT-Iron is a CSA Z259.10-2018 Class A non-belted harness with quick-connect buckles on both legs and chest for the fastest don/doff in the FallTech lineup. Built with Comfort Legs technology and ArrowGrip D-ring positioning, it gives Canadian workers FT-Iron performance in a streamlined 1D configuration.
Overview
The FT-Iron 8141 strips the harness down to essentials: one dorsal D-ring, quick-connect buckles everywhere, and FallTech's comfort-focused construction. CSA Z259.10-2018 Class A and ANSI Z359.11-2021 dual-certified, this harness is designed for workers who need fast, reliable fall arrest without the added weight and complexity of a belted harness. The 8141 is ideal for maintenance crews, roofers, and general construction workers who put on and take off their harness multiple times per day.
Key Features
Quick-Connect Chest & Leg Buckles
All buckles are quick-connect with visual indicators showing proper engagement. Workers don and doff in seconds—no threading tongue buckles through grommets on cold mornings.
Comfort Legs Lateral Strap Construction
FallTech's proprietary leg strap design reduces binding and improves range of motion. Climb ladders, kneel on decking, and move across scaffolding without leg straps digging in.
ArrowGrip Dorsal D-Ring
Slip-resistant D-ring plate keeps the dorsal connection centred on the back. Proper D-ring positioning is critical for safe fall arrest geometry.
Minimalistic Back Pad
Lightweight back pad design reduces bulk while still providing comfort at the dorsal attachment point. Less weight on the harness means less fatigue over a full shift.
Reinforced Sub-Pelvic Strap
Durable wear pad on the sub-pelvic strap protects the harness in the highest-wear area and improves comfort during suspension.
Suspension Trauma Relief System
Fully adjustable trauma straps allow a suspended worker to stand in the harness after a fall, reducing the risk of orthostatic intolerance during rescue.

CSA Certification Details
CSA Z259.10-2018 Class A — Fall Arrest
Class A certification designates this harness for fall arrest applications through the dorsal D-ring. The single dorsal attachment point connects to lanyards, SRLs, or vertical lifelines for overhead tie-off. This is the standard harness class for general construction, roofing, and maintenance work in Canada. All provincial OHS codes (Ontario O. Reg. 213/91, Alberta OHS Code Part 9, BC OHS Regulation Part 11, Quebec CNESST) recognize CSA Z259.10 Class A harnesses as compliant for fall arrest.
Applications
- General construction and renovation
- Residential and commercial roofing
- Industrial maintenance and facility work
- Scaffold erection and work
- HVAC installation and maintenance at height
- Warehouse and logistics work at elevation
- Any application requiring CSA Z259.10 Class A fall arrest protection
How to Choose the Right Harness
The 8141 is the upgrade path from the FallTech 7016 Contractor 1D. Both are 1D Class A harnesses, but the 8141 adds quick-connect buckles (instead of tongue buckles), Comfort Legs, ArrowGrip D-ring, aluminum alloy hardware, and a suspension trauma relief system. If your crew dons and doffs harnesses multiple times per day, the quick-connect buckles alone justify the price difference. If you need hip D-rings for positioning work, step up to the FallTech 8144 FT-Iron 3D.
