The present disclosure relates to a vertical fall arrest safety device designed for use in vertical fall arrest systems. The device comprises a first portion and a second portion that define a rail channel between them. These portions are slidably engaged diagonally with respect to the rail channel, allowing the device to transition between a rail engaging configuration, where the device securely grips the rail, and a rail disengaging configuration, permitting movement or detachment from the rail. This configuration provides a reliable means of arresting a fall by securing the device to a rigid rail in the event of a sudden descent.
