@B D Finch Thanks for this info, especially about the snap-hooks! I have them on my bags but couldn't think of what mousqueton was in English when I was submitting my suggestion. The "right" answer will surely be somewhere between your proposal and mine, because "retractable" and "self-retracting" are not 100% interchangeable. I'm not sure how I'd work "webbing" into mine, however.
B D Finch Nov 22, 2016:
@Debora A fall arrester is a type of SRL, so it isn't a question of either/or, more one of precision. An SRL can be used for purposes other than arresting a shortish fall and some of these, especially when the trajectory is long, not straight and/or may have to negotiate obstacles, are best served using cable rather than webbing. "Mousquetons" are snap-hooks or carabiners, not "D-rings".
Debora Blake Nov 22, 2016:
@ ALL I hadn't searched the image of the full "ENROULEUR A SANGLE 2 MOUSQUETONS 1/4 TOUR" product when I posted my first suggestion. I did just search the image and have found the proper term: Self-retracting lifeline.
Nikki Scott-Despaigne Nov 22, 2016:
@Tony The same term is used in industrial contexts, for "retractale belt barriers", which is why I asked my question. Admittedly, with "2 mousquetons 1/4 tour", the fall arrester ("stop-chute") seems more likely, but a trifle more context would have made that clear. ;-)
Tony M Nov 22, 2016:
@ Nikki Actually, in the field of industrial safety, this is quite a specific item, so no more context is really that necessary.
Nikki Scott-Despaigne Nov 22, 2016:
Context Safety in the industrial field. So vast a field as to need something more specific in terms of context please!
Tony M Nov 22, 2016:
@ Asker You may find it helpful to do some research around 'fall arresters', in which field these and similar devices are often used; manufacturers' listings are generally pretty comprehensive, and should help you with a lot of this terminology.

strap winder

how big is it? Can you give more context please?
Could be strap/belt winder maybe, depending on the size and use.
Peer comment(s):
neutral Tony M : I'm pretty sure that 'winder' is not the appropriate technical term here.

neutral Tony M : I don't think that's the same thing — but interestingly enough, this IS the answer to a different question we had recently!
7 mins
neutral Nikki Scott-Despaigne : A perfectly reasonable suggestion, although taking into account the "mousquetons" it seeems less liekely than a "fall-arrester."

Thanks, Nikki. I hadn't searched the actual product image when I made this suggestion, because the problem term was just the first part. Please see my new & improved term. ;-)

Self-Retracting Lifelines

I looked at the images of this "ENROULEUR A SANGLE 2 MOUSQUETONS 1/4 TOUR" and now see what we're dealing with. It's a Self-retracting Lifeline. Please see links.

Please see more info here. The images clearly show the SRL with 2 d-rings and a fall limiter (arrester) without them. The SRL can have either webbing or a cable.

Peer comment(s):
neutral B D Finch : SRLs are, I believe, more often cable than webbing (latter only for shorter lengths) and may have a rescue handle for a rescuer to reel in the line. Essential to translate "sangle" (webbing), which implies that it is a fall-arrester-type SRL.

I understand. But my link shows the SRL with 2 mousquetons and it says it can have webbing or cable. The fall arrester doesn't have the 2 d-rings. Please see new link.
neutral Tony M : I agree with BDF here: 'lifeline' is very often the cable type, and the fact that 'sangle' is specified here (cf Asker's other question about 'cravate') suggests a different type. That's the whole point: S/T here says it's specifically webbing
1 hr
Please see my new link for more info. The SRL here can be equipped with either webbing or cable. And the fall limiter/arrester doesn't have the 2 d-rings.
