Super Anchor 6016D 72" Heavy-Duty Tie-Off Strap – Extended Temporary Anchor 3-Pack
The Super Anchor 6016D 72" Heavy-Duty Tie-Off Strap provides an extended, dependable anchorage solution for temporary use on large-scale wood, steel, and concrete structures. This 6-foot length is ideal for wrapping around large structural columns and beams that standard straps cannot reach. Engineered with 2-inch-wide high-strength polyester or nylon webbing, the 6016D supports vertical lifelines, SRLs, and various lanyards for 2026-compliant safety. For projects requiring a more compact connection, explore the Super Anchor 6015D 36-inch Tie-Off Strap.

Extended Reach and High-Tensile Performance
The Super Anchor 6016D is rated for both fall arrest and fall restraint applications, offering a minimum breaking strength of 5,000 lbs. The 72-inch length allows for versatile attachment methods, including wrapping, cinching, or embedding directly into concrete. Each strap features proof-tested D-rings rated to 3,600 lbs, providing a secure connection point that handles the demands of heavy-duty commercial construction and industrial maintenance.
Regulatory Compliance and Job Site Safety
This heavy-duty strap is fully compliant with OSHA 1926:502, ANSI Z359.1-07, and CSA Z259.11-05 standards. Its lightweight and flexible design ensures that workers can quickly establish a 5,000 lb-rated anchor point without the need for heavy mechanical hardware. Whether securing to a massive steel I-beam or a large wood ridge beam, the 6016D delivers the reliability required for modern height safety protocols.

Super Anchor 6016D Tie-Off Strap FAQ
1. Why would I need a 72" strap instead of the 36" model?
The 72-inch length is necessary when anchoring to large-diameter structural members such as heavy concrete columns, bridge trusses, or massive glulam beams. A shorter 36" strap often lacks the length to successfully "choke" or "wrap" around these larger structures while still allowing for a proper connection to your lifeline.
2. Can I use these straps for permanent anchorage?
No. These are temporary anchorage connectors. If you require a permanent solution that stays on the roof or structure indefinitely, we recommend exploring the Super Anchor 2830 ARS Permanent Anchor.
3. Is it safe to wrap this strap around an I-beam?
Yes, as long as the beam's edges are not sharp. If the steel has "sharp" edges (as defined by OSHA/ANSI), you must use a wear-pad or protection between the webbing and the steel to prevent the strap from being cut during a fall arrest. Refer to the Super Anchor 6016D Instruction Manual for edge safety protocols.
4. Can I use this for a Horizontal Lifeline end-anchor?
While these straps have a 5,000 lb rating, Horizontal Lifeline (HLL) systems often generate much higher tension. We strongly advise submitting an HLL Quote Request Form above to have an engineer verify if these straps are suitable for your specific lifeline layout.
5. How do I inspect a 6-foot strap for safety?
Check the entire 72-inch length of the webbing for cuts, burns, or chemical damage. Inspect the D-rings for any cracks or deformation. If you see the internal "warning" threads or if the strap has been involved in a fall, it must be taken out of service and destroyed immediately.
6. Does the 72" length affect my fall distance?
Yes. Any slack or extension in your anchor strap adds to your total fall distance. When using a long strap like the 6016D, ensure you calculate your "Total Fall Clearance" carefully, especially when working on lower elevations.
7. How do I avoid common mistakes with long anchor straps?
- 1. Structure Strength: Always verify that the structural member you are wrapping is capable of supporting 5,000 lbs.
- 2. Knotting: Never tie knots in the webbing to shorten the 72-inch length; knots can reduce the strap's strength by up to 50%.
- 3. One User Only: Never connect more than one worker to a single strap.
