Anchorage Connectors
The products listed here are a crucial link in the fall protection chain. The structure to which the anchorage connector is attached must be able to sustain static loads applied in the directions permitted by the fall arrest system of at least: 3,600 lbs. with certification of a qualified person, or 5,000 lbs. without certification. See ANSI Z359.1 for certification definition. (Note-OSHA recognizes only the 5000 lb. limit.) When more than one personal fall arrest system is attached to an anchorage, the strengths stated above must be multiplied by the number of personal fall arrest systems attached to the anchorage. In addition, these anchorage connectors are designed for use by persons with a combined weight
(clothing, tools, etc.) of no more than 310 lbs. |
