Fall Protection

Your choice of anchor depends on the type of
work being done. Anchorages are sold by what
they connect to (general/all purpose, steel,
concrete, roof or specialty), whether they are
fixed or mobile, and whether they are permanent
or portable. They all must provide a secure point
of attachment for a complete personal fall arrest
system, and must be capable of supporting a load
of 5,000 lbs. (22kN) or of meeting OSHA’s criteria
of a 2-to-1 safety factor.
