Premium X-Arm Cross Arm Strap with Large and Small D-Rings
The Guardian Premium X-Arm is the workhorse pass-around anchor: heavy webbing that wraps beams, columns, and cross arms, terminating in a large D-ring on one end and a small D-ring on the other. Pass the small ring through the large one, cinch the wrap, and clip in to the small ring, a rated anchorage anywhere compatible structure exists.
Stocked in six lengths from 3 to 20 ft, each rated for one worker under OSHA 1926.502 and 1910.140. Lengths through 10 ft ship as 2-packs; the 20 ft ships as a single.
Who Needs This Product
Cross arm straps are the most-carried anchor in fall protection because structure is everywhere and drilled anchors are not. Match the length to the member you wrap: 3 and 4 ft for joists and small beams, 6 and 8 ft for columns and standard structural steel, 10 and 20 ft for tanks, large columns, and girders. The large-through-small choke keeps the strap snug so it cannot slide down a vertical member.
