Super Anchor TrussBar Roof Anchor, Bolt-On, 2833
The Super Anchor 2833 TrussBar is a temporary roof anchor for 2x4 and 2x6 trusses with a bolt-on attachment, blue powder coated, including two 6047-C 24 inch truss bar straps. When the build is done, cut the straps and the bar stays harmlessly on the truss. The detent pin model is listed separately.
When the house is finished, the roofer cuts off the straps and the TrussBar stays attached to the truss but is no longer usable. It is made from heavy duty mild steel with 2 foot tie-off straps, and two workers can use it for fall arrest. Choose the 2833 bolt attachment or the 2833-DP detent pin attachment.

Who Needs This Product
The TrussBar is a temporary roof anchor for production builders and framers who need a robust deck-over anchor point during framing and sheeting. It protects all trades through the sheeting stage and is disabled when the roof is finished. Complete the system with full-body harnesses and energy-absorbing connecting devices.
Features
Deck over design
Install on the truss, deck over the top, and the tie-off straps stay exposed for all trades.
Protects all trades
Provides tie-off points during framing and sheeting for everyone on the roof.
Two person fall arrest
Up to two workers can use the TrussBar for fall arrest.
Heavy duty mild steel
Robust steel construction with 2 foot tie-off straps.
Bolt or detent pin
Choose the 2833 bolt attachment or the 2833-DP detent pin attachment.
Disabled at completion
The roofer cuts the straps when the house is finished and the bar is no longer usable.
This is a temporary anchor, not a complete system. A personal energy absorber is required. Install onto framing capable of 5,000 lb, use full-body harnesses with connecting devices, and confirm fall clearance. Run the Fall Protection Calculator below before you tie off.
