FallTech Cable Carabiner Sling Anchor with Vinyl-Coated Steel Cable
The FallTech Cable Carabiner Sling Anchor with vinyl-coated cable pairs a galvanized steel wire rope with an alloy-steel carabiner and D-ring, plus a protective vinyl coating. Wrap the cable around a rated structure and clip the carabiner to the D-ring for a fast loop anchor that is easy on finished surfaces.
It is rated for 5,000 lb (22.2 kN) and certified to ANSI Z359.18-2017. Choose from lengths of 3', 4', 6', 8' to fit the member.
Who Needs This Product
This product is a vinyl-coated cable carabiner sling anchor, the anchorage component of a personal fall arrest system. Crews who want a fast clip-on loop anchor that protects finished surfaces wrap it around a rated member and snap the carabiner to the D-ring, then connect an SRL or lanyard. You still need a certified full-body harness and a compatible connecting device to complete the system.
Features
Carabiner connection
Alloy-steel carabiner clips to the D-ring for a fast, secure loop.
Vinyl-coated cable
Protective coating shields finished surfaces and the wire rope.
Steel wire rope
Galvanized cable resists cuts and abrasion better than webbing.
Several lengths
Available from 3 ft to 8 ft to fit the member.
Reusable and portable
Snaps on and off fast and stows easily.
ANSI Z359.18-2017
Certified anchorage rated for 5,000 lb (22.2 kN).
Confirm the carabiner is locked and the structure is rated. Make sure the carabiner gate is fully closed and locked, the structure supports at least 5,000 lb, and edges are not sharp. Confirm fall clearance and swing-fall with the Fall Protection Calculator below.

Typical Applications
How to Install
Follow the FallTech instruction manual. The sequence below is an overview only.
- Inspect. Check the webbing, stitching, and hardware for damage before each use.
- Choose a rated anchor point. Confirm the structure supports at least 5,000 lb and is free of sharp or abrasive edges.
- Wrap the structure. Pass the anchor around the beam, column, or member in the approved configuration.
- Connect. Attach your SRL or energy-absorbing lanyard to the anchor 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.
- Wire rope: kinks, birdcaging, broken wires, corrosion, or crushing.
- Swages and thimbles: cracks, slippage, or deformation.
- Hardware (carabiner, hook, D-ring, or O-ring): deformation, corrosion, or a gate that will not lock.
- Coating (if present) and labels: heavy damage, or illegible markings.
Remove the anchor from service immediately after any fall-arrest event, and destroy retired equipment so it cannot return to service.
