peralatan pembantutan jatuh
Explanation:
or just "alat membantutkan (kejadian) jatuh"

"Arrest" does not prevent ('sekat/tahan') but rather the sense is to cushion or to prevent a fall from being completed & causing injury eg is a safety net in a circus highwire act. This sense is imbued in 'bantut'/'pembantutan'. KDE3, pg 105 gives "membantutkan = menyebabkan tidak mencapai ...dgn menimbulkan halangan/rintangan".
