Capital Safety Introduces the Permanent Roof Top Anchor



Unique load-distributing design keeps workers safe; ensures integrity of roof

Red Wing, Minn.- April 4, 2007 - Capital Safety, home of the DBI-SALA and PROTECTA brands, introduces the Permanent Roof Top Anchor, designed to keep workers and structures safe in the event of a fall.

"The DBI-SALA Permanent Roof Top Anchor has a unique load distributing system that forces the stanchion to tip over when fall-arrest level forces are exerted on it," says Charley Bryant, product marketing manager with Capital Safety. "This feature directs the arresting forces to the base and fasteners, rather than one part of the anchor, ensuring the safety of the worker and preserving the integrity of the structure."

This load-distributing design also allows the anchor to be attached to approved roof structures, without the need to fasten to a structural member. The Permanent Roof Top Anchor is fast and easy to install and works with virtually any kind of corrugated metal or wood sheathing rooftops.

Two models of the Permanent Roof Top Anchor are available: small and large base. These two models provide a safe tie-off point for one person or for multiple people when coupled with DBI-SALA's Sayfline(TM) horizontal lifeline system.
