The six vehicle attachment points use 5/16" (8mm) diameter bolt fixings. These can be supplied with 3/8" (9mm) diameter holes using the dropdown below. The shoulder mountings can be supplied with 3/8" (9mm) or 7/16" (11mm) diameter bolt mountings in Type B fixing or 3/8" (9mm) or 1/4" (6mm) Type A fixing. Finally, a stitched loop option is available only if mounting to a ‘dog-bone’ fitting. The loops are available in 20, 30, 40 or 50mm sizes but please note they need to be large enough for the end of the dog-bone to pass through. Simply select the options required from the drop downs when ordering.
Patented lightweight composite Rotary Buckle finished in satin black with a black Willans badge as standard; the badge (not the buckle) can be upgraded to Signature Red or Blue. One lap strap is permanently fixed to the right-hand lap strap. Willans super smooth Aluminium Adjusters are standard fittings on these harnesses and can be specified in Black or Blue (at additional cost).
Shoulder Straps are all 3 inch (75mm) wide with the option of 2 inch (50mm) or 3 inches (75mm) for the lap straps. 2 inch (50mm) crutch straps and the lap straps use double steel attachment lugs to give pinch plate spanner adjustment for length control of the straps. Crutch Straps are 2 inches (50mm) wide with 1 inch (25mm) wide loop one end to be passed through the ‘D’ rings on the lap straps before passing the shoulder strap down through the loop prior to connecting into the release mechanism.
Signature range includes additional colours and the option of the Historic Willans Label if required. Stitching thread is self-colour (same as harness colour) unless upgraded to a Signature colour using the dropdowns on the page. Shoulder pads are available in Black, Blue or Red only with Modern or Historic Labels. Superb Willans quality throughout. Manufactured in the UK.
