POST DRILLED REUSABLE CONNECTOR – FALL ARREST ANCHOR

Description POST-DRILLED ANCHORS Post Drilled Anchor for Fall Arrest, Work Restraint & Work Positioning Systems. BSEN 795 : 2012 Type B We have a wide range of Anchor devices designed and certified for Fall Arrest and Work Restraint which are described and compared in this blog https://safetyrespectstore.co.uk/anchor-points-for-personal-fall-protection/ Post-installed anchors are anchor bolts that are installed after the concrete base has been set. A hole is drilled into the concrete and the anchor is then installed into the hole. There are two main types of post-installed anchors: mechanical expansion anchors (MEA) and adhesive anchors. Mechanical expansion anchors are first placed into the pre-drilled hole. They then expand, bearing against the concrete surface. Wedge anchors are a common type of MEA. MEAs are easy to install, however they have a relatively low tensile strength and are not recommended for use in tension zones where concrete is likely to crack. COMPONENT DESCRIPTION Zinc plated Reusable Connection Hanger , used with a non-reusable Expansion Anchor as part of a Two-component Post-drilled Anchor designed for solid concrete to provide an anchorage point for single-user Lanyards or Fall Arrestors, or in pairs to form anchorage at the end of Running-Lines (Temporary Horizontal Lifeline) when used for Work Restraint. This Anchor device is designed to be used on Horizontal, Vertical and Sloping surfaces and is suitable as a replacement for a Scissorsafe anchorage device when a cast-in void former has been omitted or cast unsuccessfully. This anchor is designed for Fall Protection should only be used with or as part of a Work Restraint or Fall Arrest system. INSTRUCTIONS Drill a 12mm diameter hole to depth of 95mm in concrete with minimum strength of 50 Mpa.Thread the Expansion Bolt through the Eye-Bolt hanger and insert. Into the drilled hole. Tighten to a torque strength of 30Nm. TYPICAL APPLICATIONS ANCHOR LOAD TESTING We strongly recommend that you load-test any friction anchor before attaching a Personal Safety System to it.
