Ridge Pro Steep Assist Device - Conquering Challenges

When it comes to working on steep roofs, safety is paramount. The classic challenge for roofers has always been establishing an anchor point to work from while not exposing themselves to additional risk of falling. That's where the  Ridge Pro Steep Assist Device comes in. This innovative fall protection product allows workers to be tied off 100% of the time while on the roof. From the ladder, to the peak of the roof, until they are safely back to the ladder. With its advanced design and multiple bundle options, the Ridge Pro steep assist anchor is a game-changer in the industry.

One of the key advantages of the Ridge Pro is its ability to affix a secure attachment point at the roof peak while the worker remains safely on the ladder. This ensures safe ascent and descent, giving workers the peace of mind they need to focus on their tasks. Unlike other steep assist anchors that lack tie-offs, the Ridge Pro prioritizes safety by allowing continuous connection to a lifeline that extends from the peak of the roof down to the ladder.

To cater to different needs and preferences, the Ridge Pro is available in three comprehensive bundles: the "Hook Only" Bundle, the "Hook and Rope" Bundle, and the "Hook, Rope, and Harness" Bundle.

Hook Only Bundle

The "Hook Only" Bundle is perfect for users who already possess compatible lifelines and harnesses, or simply prefer to purchase them separately. This bundle includes the core component of the Ridge Pro system - the adjustable pitch hook itself, which provides a secure fall protection anchor point at the roof peak for safe access.

Hook and Rope Bundle

For users seeking a more complete solution, the "Hook and Rope" Bundle is the ideal choice. This bundle includes the Ridge Pro Hook and a 50' C7050 Vertical Lifeline from Malta Dynamics. The lifeline features a shock-absorbing lanyard and rope grab, enhancing safety during ascent and descent while ensuring continuous tie-off.

Hook, Rope, and Harness Bundle

For those requiring a comprehensive fall protection system, the  "Hook, Rope, and Harness" Bundle is the ultimate option. This bundle includes the Ridge Pro Hook, the 50' Vertical Lifeline from Malta Dynamics, and the Universal Fit Harness. The harness is designed for comfort and security, providing proper weight distribution and minimizing the risk of falls.

With these three Ridge Pro bundles, users have the flexibility to choose the option that best suits their specific requirements. Whether they need just the hook or a complete fall protection system, the Ridge Pro delivers unparalleled safety and peace of mind during roof-related tasks.

In conclusion, the Ridge Pro Steep Assist Device is a game-changer in the industry, revolutionizing fall protection on steep roofs. Its ability to ensure workers are tied off 100% of the time, combined with the convenience of three comprehensive bundles, makes it a must-have for any roofing professional. Invest in the Ridge Pro today and experience the ultimate in safety and efficiency during roof access. The Ridge Pro device was recently compared to other similar products and proves to be the most cost effective, lightest, and versatile option in the industry.

Standing Seam Roof Anchor SSRA1 and Adapters - Unmatched Versatility

For standing seam projects that require anchors, walkboards, or temporary horizontal lifelines, the Standing Seam Roof Anchor SSRA1, along with its corresponding adapters, the SSRA2 and SSRA3, offers unmatched versatility.

SSRA1 Anchor-The Backbone Of The System

The Standing Seam Roof Anchor SSRA1 is a groundbreaking product that revolutionizes fall protection anchorage attachment on standing seam roofs. With its innovative non-penetrating design, homeowners, building owners, and contractors can now work safely on standing seam roofs without the need to penetrate the panels.

The SSRA1 has undergone rigorous Ultimate Failure testing at an independent ISO 17025/ANSI Z359.18 certified materials testing facility, surpassing both our expectations and our competitor's strength. While the maximum testing protocol for OSHA and ANSI is 5,000 lbs, the SSRA1 withstood an incredible load of 14,500 lbs. The test concluded when the Grade 8 top bolts sheared, leaving the aluminum anchor body completely unharmed and unbent. This exceptional strength is attributed to the patented structural design of the anchor body, placing the SSRA1 in a class of its own.

The SSRA1 features a solid 6061-T6 aluminum body with 12 stainless steel set screws, ensuring durability and reliability. The standard assembly includes a certified 5,000 lbs d-ring for single-man attachment, providing a secure connection during work. This life-saving device arrives ready to use as a single seam, single-user anchor, offering convenience and ease of installation.

One of the key advantages of the SSRA1 is its set screw attachment, which outperforms compression type anchors that rely on bolts to squeeze the seam between metal plates. The set screws effectively prevent the device from sliding during impacts, offering superior stability and safety. This feature sets the SSRA1 apart from weaker compression designs and ensures the anchor remains securely in place, even under demanding conditions.

By utilizing the SSRA Anchors, users can confidently work on standing seam roofs while maintaining the integrity of the panels. The non-penetrating design, combined with the exceptional strength and stability of the SSRA1, provides unparalleled safety and peace of mind. Whether you are a homeowner, building owner, or contractor, the SSRA Anchors offer a reliable and innovative solution for fall protection anchorage on standing seam roofs.
