Pro Series Harness with High Visibility and Comfort
The Pro Series Safety Harness included in the 3204 kit offers a blend of high visibility and superior comfort for long-term wear. Featuring Hi-Viz webbing and Tri-Lam3 padding across the shoulders and legs, this harness resists moisture absorption, ensuring all-day comfort even in extreme weather conditions.

Sidewinder SRL and Hinge 2 Roof Anchor Duo
The 20 ft. Sidewinder Retractable Lifeline (SRL) 2904K and Hinge 2 Roof Anchor deliver unmatched fall protection on flat and sloped roofs. The Sidewinder SRL features a 3/16" galvanized cable, an integrated carry handle, and a 3,600 lb gate-rated swivel snap hook with a built-in impact indicator. This lifeline retracts smoothly to minimize slack and trip hazards. The Hinge 2 3013-D Roof Anchor is fully reusable and comes with 36 zinc-coated duplex nails and 25 wood screws for versatile attachment. To further protect the worker, the included inline energy absorber limits the fall-arrest force to a maximum of 900 pounds.

Super Anchor 3204 Safety Bucket Kit FAQ
1. What is the maximum user weight for this kit?
The Super Anchor 3204 kit is rated for a single user with a total weight capacity of 300 lbs, including the worker's weight and all tools and equipment. For heavier-duty applications, consider the Super Anchor 6101GH Deluxe Harness.
2. Is the Hinge 2 anchor permanent or temporary?
The Hinge 2 3013-D anchor included in this kit is a reusable temporary anchor. It is designed to be moved from job site to job site. If you require a permanent solution, we recommend the Super Anchor 1030 ARS Permanent Anchor.
3. Why does the kit include an inline energy absorber?
While the Sidewinder SRL has internal braking, the inline energy absorber provides an additional layer of safety. It ensures that the impact force on the worker's body is limited to under 900 lbs in the event of a fall arrest.
4. Can I use this kit on a metal roof?
The Hinge 2 anchor is designed for wood structures. For metal roofs, the SRL and harness are compliant, but you would need a metal-specific anchor like the SSRA1.
5. How do I know if the SRL has been involved in a fall?
The Sidewinder features an impact indicator on the snap hook. If a fall occurs, a red indicator band will appear, signaling that the unit must be removed from service.
6. Does the kit include fasteners for the anchor?
Yes, it includes 36 duplex nails and 25 wood screws, allowing for immediate installation on most wood-decked roofs.
7. How do I avoid common mistakes with this kit?
- 1. Fastener Depth: Ensure fasteners penetrate the structural truss, not just the sheathing.
- 2. Harness Fit: Ensure all 5 points of adjustment are snug before climbing.
- 3. Inspection: Visually inspect the cable for frays before every use.
