FallTech Bolt-On D-Ring Anchor with Mounting Stud
The FallTech Bolt-On D-Ring Anchor with a mounting stud fastens through a hole in structural steel to create a permanent tie-off point with a forged D-ring. Choose the stud-and-nut version for a supplied fastener or the 5/8 in hole version to use your own bolt.
It is certified to ANSI Z359.18-2017, rated for 5,000 lb (22.2 kN), for one worker up to 310 lb (ANSI) or 425 lb (OSHA).

Who Needs This Product
This product is a bolt-on D-ring anchor, the anchorage component of a personal fall arrest system. Steel crews fasten it through a drilled hole in a structural member to create a tie-off point, then connect an SRL or lanyard. You still need a certified full-body harness and a compatible connecting device.

- Connect. Attach your SRL or energy-absorbing lanyard to the connection point.
- Check clearance. Confirm fall clearance and swing-fall with the calculator below.
Inspection and Retirement
Inspect before each use, with a documented competent-person inspection at least annually. Remove the anchor from service for any of the conditions below.
- Anchor body and welds: cracks, bending, deformation, or corrosion.
