Fixed Position Beam Anchor, 4 to 12 Inch Flanges
The 8815-12 is the stay-put version of the Miller beam anchor: the same stainless and aluminum build and 4 to 12 inch flange range, set up for fixed-position service at anchor points that host work again and again.
The fixed configuration trades mobility for simplicity: install once at the recurring point and the tie-off is always ready.
Who Needs This Product
Where the 8814 travels, the 8815 settles down: mechanical rooms, crane rails, and maintenance bays where the same beam anchors the same task every month. Fixed-position installation removes the daily setup variable, and the corrosion-resistant metals live happily on the steel year-round.
