Super Anchor ARS Permanent Roof Anchor for Standing Seam and Corrugated Metal Roofing
The Super Anchor ARS metal roofing anchor pairs the proven ARS 2x8 and 2x4 anchor bodies with a purpose built EPDM metal roof flashing so you can tie off permanently on standing seam and corrugated metal roofs. Choose the anchor that matches your top chord: the 1006 2x8 in 14 gauge stainless, the 1006D 2x8 in 11 gauge Dacromet coated steel, or the 1022 2x4 with a 6.5 inch stem.
The EPDM base flashing is 8 by 8 inches with a 3 inch stem, has an aluminum reinforced edge, and includes ribs to accept butyl sealant so it conforms to different roof profiles for a weather tight fit. The anchor meets OSHA 1926.502 and ANSI Z359.18-17 Type D with a 5,000 pound minimum breaking strength.
This product is sold as a 3-pack.
Who Needs This Product
The ARS metal roofing anchor is a permanent fall arrest anchor for roofers and service trades working on standing seam and corrugated metal roofs. Pick the gauge and stem that match your framing and roof profile. Complete the system with a full-body harness, a connecting device, and a competent-person layout.
Features
Built for metal roofs
The EPDM base flashing seals the ARS anchor on standing seam and corrugated metal roofing.
Three anchor options
1006 2x8 14 gauge stainless, 1006D 2x8 11 gauge Dacromet, and 1022 2x4 with a 6.5 inch stem.
Conforms to roof profiles
The aluminum reinforced EPDM base flexes to different metal panel profiles for a weather tight fit.
Butyl ready base
Ribs on the bottom of the flashing accept butyl sealant for a durable seal.
Paintable finish
The flashing can be painted with latex to match the roof color.
5,000 lb rated
All ARS anchors carry a 5,000 lb minimum breaking strength.
This anchor is a fall arrest anchorage, not a complete system. Fasteners to attach the flashing to the roof are not included; install onto framing capable of 5,000 lb, use a full-body harness with a connecting device, and confirm fall clearance. Teko nails alone do not arrest a fall; the attachment bolt is required. Run the Fall Protection Calculator below before you tie off.
Compliance Standards
OSHA 29 CFR 1926.502
Federal construction fall protection anchorage requirements.
ANSI Z359.18-17 Type D
American National Standard for anchorage connectors, Type D.
