SSRA HLL 100' Horizontal Lifeline Kit: Unmatched Fall Protection for Most Standing Seam Roofs
The industry's most versatile fall protection mounting system for standing seam roofs! Revolutionize your approach to fall protection with the SSRA HLL 100' Horizontal Lifeline Kit, featuring the groundbreaking SSRA1 anchors. This innovative kit provides unparalleled strength, versatility, and peace of mind. Let's explore the features and benefits that make the SSRA HLL 100' Horizontal Lifeline Kit the ultimate solution for roofing contractors.
Non-Penetrating SSRA1 Anchors
The SSRA1 anchors utilize six pairs of non-penetrating set screws for the ultimate in seam attachment strength. At the heart of the system lies the SSRA1 anchor, a revolutionary product that transforms fall protection on standing seam roofs. Its state-of-the-art engineering and patented non-penetrating design set it apart, offering a secure anchorage attachment without damaging the roof. The SSRA1 minimizes installation time and ensures the longevity of the roof system. The patented shape of the SSRA1 anchor body allows it to fit about 95% of today's standing seam profiles, as illustrated below.

SSRA1 Compatibility Overview
The Panel Compatibility Chart is provided only as a reference for what the SSRA1 will physically mount to. This list makes no determination as to the structural integrity of any roof system or seam. It is the Competent Person's ultimate responsibility to determine that a roof system and seam are structurally capable of withstanding an impact in the event of a fall. The SSRA1 Standing Seam Roof Anchor fits over 95% of today's standing seam panels. It is tested and approved for use only on 24-gauge and 22-gauge steel. It is not compatible with aluminum, zinc, copper, or other soft metals. Do not install on curved, tapered, or batten-cap profiles.
Nailstrip Panel Warning
Nailstrip-style panels are a hit-or-miss proposition (roughly 50% compatibility) because some seams are too wide at the base, which can cause the anchor to slide upward during installation. A detailed compatibility list is available, but panel dimensions vary between roll formers and manufacturers, so treat it as a guideline, not a guarantee.
Installer Responsibility
It's solely up to the installer or specifier to confirm that the SSRA1 is suitable for the specific panel and application.
Test Fit Recommendation
To avoid delays or surprises, perform a test fit with an RCT seam clamp or SSRA1 anchor well before the scheduled install. Test-fitting the SSRA products helps confirm proper fitment with your exact panel profile. It's solely up to the installer or specifier to verify that the SSRA1 is suitable for the specific panel and application.
Set-Screw Options
- Cupped-tip: 22 gauge steel panels, torque to 90 in-lbs
- Nylon-tip: 22/24 gauge steel panels, torque to 180–200 in-lbs
Surface Impact
As with all seam anchors, both screw types will create a small dimple in the seam to ensure a secure, non-slip connection. Minor paint abrasion may occur on coated panels. The installer can easily touch up scratches with a matching paint pen.
Versatile Deployment with SSRA3 Anchor Plates
When combined with SSRA3 anchor plates, the SSRA1 anchors form the foundation for the SSRA HLL 100' Horizontal Lifeline Kit. This unique combination creates a rock-solid mounting platform for the Malta Dynamics HLL3001 100' Kernmantle horizontal lifeline rope. The kit's ability to deploy temporary horizontal lifelines without causing damage is a game-changer, ensuring the preservation of the roof system.
Game-Changing Fall Protection Technology
The SSRA Component System is a true game-changer in fall protection. The SSRA1's innovative non-penetrating design significantly advances roof safety equipment, providing unmatched security and peace of mind for workers at height. Rigorously tested and approved to meet the highest safety standards, the SSRA1 is easy to install, cost-effective, and ensures worker safety.
Undergoing rigorous Ultimate Failure testing, the SSRA1 showcased unparalleled strength by withstanding an astonishing 14,500 lbs. of load—far beyond the OSHA and ANSI maximum of 5,000 lbs. Its Grade 8 top bolts sheared under immense pressure, leaving the aluminum anchor body unscathed. This exceptional performance is a testament to the SSRA1's durability and reliability.
Patented Structural Design: Stability and Safety.
Crafted from solid 6061-T6 aluminum and featuring 12 stainless steel set screws, the SSRA1's patented structural design ensures exceptional strength. Six pairs of opposing set screws prevent sliding during impacts, offering stability and controlling anchor movement. This impact load dispersal design also requires lower torque on the seam, protecting the roof system from damage. Compatible with most 22-gauge and 24-gauge steel panels; whenever temporary horizontal lifelines are necessary.
Versatility and Lightness: Adaptable to Any Project
Weighing only 4.5 lbs., the SSRA1 is the world's lightest OSHA 5,000 lbs. certified anchor. Its universal fit design works on over 500 standing seam panel profiles, offering a versatile solution for various roofing structures and projects.
The installation process for the SSRA1 and SSRA3 Anchor Plates is straightforward, requiring only basic hand tools and minimal effort. Whether for temporary or permanent attachment, this versatile product provides seamless installation. Backed by the Lifetime Life Saving Warranty, the SSRA HLL 100' Horizontal Lifeline Kit ensures long-term peace of mind and a lifetime guarantee.
Corrosion-Resistant and Low-Profile: Safe and Aesthetic
The SSRA1 and SSRA3 Anchor Plates are fabricated from non-corrosive 6061-T6 aluminum. The system's low-profile attachment minimizes tripping hazards and remains unobtrusive on permanent installations.
The SSRA1 is OSHA tested to 5,000 lbs. to protect against impact loads from any direction. We tested the SSRA3 Anchor Plate to withstand a 10,000 lbs. impact load. This certified component system allows workers to access both sides of the roof without repositioning the anchor, adapting to various projects and configurations.
