Anchor on the Go for metal roofs

DBI-SALA, a Capital Safety brand solely dedicated to the fall protection market, has announced the launch of their new Anchor on the Go temporary roof anchor for metal roofs. The Anchor on the Go temporary roof anchor is a cost effective solution that is ideal for use in residential, commercial and industrial applications on a variety of metal roofs. The patented device provides a safe 15kN fall arrest rated anchor point ensuring you remain protected from dangerous falls while complying with safety regulations. Its portability is a plus for the tradesman, allowing them to take the anchor with them from job to job to work confidently, efficiently and safely.

Installation is fast and simple, allowing the user to get on with the job at hand, immediately. In a few simple steps the anchor is installed and ready for use, there is no need to remove roof screws and no tools are required. The anchor's bottom angle simply slides up under the roof sheeting with the main post resting in the pan, the locking cams are then pushed into place via the easy-grip levers providing a solid and secure connection. The anchor is now ready for use, simply connect your fall arrest system, such as a roof workers kit, and you are good to go. Removal is just as trouble-free; simply complete the steps in reverse and you are ready to take Anchor on the Go with you to your next job.

"Anchor on the Go has been developed to provide portable piece of mind in an anchor that is strong and safe, yet is quick and easy to install," says Greg Peterson, Systems Manager for Capital Safety, Australia and New Zealand. "The anchor is an ideal temporary solution for metal roof applications, and is an addition to our extensive range of anchors that are available for almost every type of roof structure."
