Standing Seam Roof Anchor Testing

The Standing Seam Roof Anchor's defining capability is its ability to attach various components to standing seam panels. The standard D-ring is removable and connects to other fall protection devices. It is the only ANSI/OSHA 5,000lbs certified product that can be used as a stand-alone fall protection anchor or by various manufacturers to attach any number of components to the standing seam roof systems. Not all products on the market today are testing to the 5,000 pounds level that the Standing Seam Roof Anchor tested. Many anchors only test to 1,800lbs or 3,600 pounds. Our anchor tested to a 3,600-pound pull without permanent deformation and a 5,000-pound pull without breakage. The maximum impact the human body should withstand during a fall is 900 lbs with shock absorbers and proper safety planning. Some competing anchors only test to hold at twice this limit at 1800lbs.
