FallTech Concrete Embed Loop Anchor
The FallTech Concrete Embed Loop Anchor is a polyester web strap cast into fresh concrete, finished with a soft web connection loop at the surface instead of a steel D-ring. Set it in the wet pour for a permanent, low-profile anchor point.
It meets ANSI Z359.1-2007 and ANSI A10.32-2004, rated to a 5,000 lb anchorage requirement for one worker up to 310 lb. Choose the embedded length (4 ft or 6 ft) for your slab. Sold in multi-packs.
Who Needs This Product
This product is a concrete embed anchor with a soft web loop, the anchorage component of a personal fall arrest system cast into concrete during the pour. Concrete and precast crews set it in the wet slab so the loop is available for tie-off once cured. It is a single-use, permanent anchor. You still need a certified full-body harness and a compatible connecting device, and it must not be used to lift or support loads.

Typical Applications
How to Install
Follow the FallTech instruction manual. The sequence below is an overview only.
- Plan the location. Mark where the anchor is needed and confirm slab thickness and edge distance per the manual.
- Position before the pour. Secure the embed strap so the loop end sits at the finished surface.
- Cast in concrete. Pour and consolidate the concrete around the fully embedded strap.
- Cure fully. Let the concrete reach its required strength before using the anchor.
- Inspect and connect. Inspect the loop and surface, connect your SRL or lanyard, and confirm fall clearance 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.
- Web loop at the surface: cuts, fraying, or damage where it exits the concrete.
- Stitching: broken or worn stitches at the loop.
- Concrete around the anchor: cracking or spalling.
- Labels: illegible or missing markings.
Remove the anchor from service immediately after any fall-arrest event, and destroy retired equipment so it cannot return to service.
