    Fall-Arrest Anchors

    Connect fall-arrest lanyards to these anchor points. You'll want to install these into an approved, stable surface that is strong enough to support someone. When used together with a lanyard and a harness, they help you meet OSHA and ANSI safety standards.

    Rolling

    Stationary—Stationary anchors mount to horizontal and vertical I-beams. They’re great when working in a single location.
    Rolling—Rolling anchors move with you, so you’re free to work along the length of the beam.
    Roller Bearings—Those with roller bearings are best when you need to move back and forth frequently. They roll along the beam with less effort than with other mobile anchors.
    Bronze Insert—Those with bronze inserts glide smoothly for easy movement.

    Strut Channel Fall-Arrest Anchors

    Sliding in a track, these anchors give you freedom of movement while staying safely tethered. They fit into strut channels embedded in concrete for a secure place to clip your fall-arrest lanyard. They take just seconds to install and remove—the two sides of the anchor hook separately into your strut channel and lock together with a carabiner. When used together with a lanyard and harness, these anchors help you meet OSHA and ANSI safety standards.

    Wire Rope—Wire rope anchors resist cuts and abrasion better than webbing anchors, so they last longer.
    Roller Cable—Anchors with a roller cable are a good choice when you have to move back and forth while staying tethered. Use the included carabiner to attach the two loop ends together.
    Nylon Liner—Webbing anchors with a nylon liner have an extra layer to protect the webbing from wear and tear.

    Electrical Arc-Flash-Resistant Wrap-Around Fall-Arrest Anchors

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Fall-Arrest Anchors. Electrical Arc-Flash-Resistant Wrap-Around Fall-Arrest Anchors.
    Made of Kevlar, these anchors withstand high heat and electrical arcs that would weaken a standard webbing anchor. They’ve been tested against the highest level of electrical arc-flash hazards to meet ASTM F887. Loop them around beams, rails, and other approved structures—they’re easy to move between work sites. Their webbing construction makes them lightweight and flexible. Plus, they won’t damage the anchoring surface. When used together with a harness and lanyard, these anchors help you meet OSHA and ANSI safety standards.

    Drop-Through Fall-Arrest Anchors

    Anchor your fall-arrest lanyard to overhead grating, girders, and other stable structures. These anchors give you a secure, stable way to clip in without being permanent. Slip these anchors through a hole and the plate on the end catches firmly. When the job’s done, pull the anchor out and use it again. Polyurethane tubing near the plate protects the anchor from abrasion. When used together with a lanyard and harness, these anchors help you meet OSHA and ANSI safety standards.

    Rope

    Also known as horizontal lifelines, these anchor spans provide fall protection on roofs and other areas where overhead anchors aren’t available. Attach to an anchor point on both sides. Once clipped in, you can move freely along the line while remaining tethered. When used together with a lanyard and harness, these anchor spans help you meet OSHA safety standards.
    Polyester Plastic Webbing—Lightweight and flexible, these anchor spans are easy to set up and reposition.
    Polyester Plastic Rope—Higher breaking strength than webbing to support more simultaneous users. These anchor spans also meet ANSI/ASSP Z359 standards for fall protection.
    Galvanized Steel Wire Rope—Resist corrosion and abrasion better than other anchor spans. They're tough enough for outdoor lines that stay up across multiple jobs.
