Anchorage Points (EN795)

The KM Girder Loops are strops with a rubberised wear strip stitched to their back. This gives them unparalleled resistance to hazards like uneven edges and rough surfaces that affect other thinner attachment points.

The KM418 is certified EN795 Class B and fitted with a triangular attachment point at either end. This item should be made to form a loop around the object to be used as the anchor point.

Both the KM419 and the KM421 are also certified to EN795 Class B and have a triangle at one end with a 'D' at the other that allows the strop to be choked. This ensures a tight fit to the item being used as the anchor point.

The Glyder 2 is a lightweight beam anchor with a user capacity rating of 140kg total weight.

The unit can be attached either overhead or at your feet and once installed the Glyder 2 will follow the worker. Synthetic wear pads eliminate metal-to-metal contact which offers smooth operation of the unit.

The unit is simple to install as it has an integrated ratcheting adjustment system at each end with no external pins or chains. Just depress the locking mechanism, slide the hook ends to fit snugly against the flange and release the locking tab.

The ratcheting adjustment hook ends have a locking tab positioned on the side of the unit to reduce the chance of it being accidentally disengaged from the beam.

The Glyder 2 fits I-beams from 8.75 - 35cm wide and up to 3.125cm thick.

The fixed beam anchor is a portable lightweight anchorage that is easy to install and can be adjusted in seconds.

It is a single point anchorage connector for a fall arrest or restraint system designed to be attached to a beam or used as an end termination for horizontal lifeline systems. The fixed beam anchor can be used horizontally or vertically.

The beam must be capable of sustaining a 12kN force in the anticipated direction of loading. The anchor can support a single person with a combined weight (clothing, tools etc.) of no more that 140kg for EN795.

The fixed beam anchor can fit beam flanges up to 91.44cm and I beams of up to 6.5cm thickness.

The Door Anchor is designed to be able to create an EN795 anchorage position quickly for things like building maintenance.

The unit can be quickly installed without penetrating the host structures and no additional tools are required. The Door Anchor can be installed on door or window frames from 60 to 125 cm.

• Vertically on window frames combined with a fall arrestor (EN360, EN355 or EN353)
• Horizontally in door frames with a work restraint system (EN358)

The Door Anchor is certified for the attachment of 2 people if the surround is strong enough to do this. Always seek expert advise with regards to the suitability of the frame to ensure sufficient strength to enable this product to be used.

This lightweight and portable anchor weights only 6.35kg and can be quickly installed, with no tools or drilling, to door and window sizes ranging from 55cm to 130cm in width.

The anchor installs in three easy steps; initially remove the anchor pin, adjust the anchor to fit inside the desired opening and then use the built-in "course adjustment knob" to tighten and lock the device into place.

Typical applications for this anchor include residential and commercial construction, rooftops with door entrances, elevator shafts, wall openings, emergency egress and rescue.

The Anchor Post for ISO Containers is a temporary anchor for working on top of ISO shipping containers.

The unit is strong and easy to transport and can be quickly installed in the top corner casting of ISO 20-foot and 40-foot shipping containers by one person. It comes with a side lock and tag line arrangement and can be removed without damaging the container.

The post was designed to raise the height of the anchorage point in relation to the ground. When installed on a container, it gives the user a vertical clearance of: the container height + post height, or about 2.59 m + 0.95 m = 3.54 m based on the standard dimensions of an ISO shipping container. The height of the container must be verified before the post is used.

The Anchor Post has also been tested with the force directed horizontally so it can be used with a horizontal lifeline stretched between two posts.

The horizontal temporary lifeline can be used by up to 2 people and has a maximum length of 14m. The kernmantel rope is equipped with a tensioner to allow for the tensioning of it between two supports. There are 2m of red rope at each end of the lifeline intended to be used to prevent access to the hazardous areas at the ends of the container.

The lifeline can only be installed along the length of a container.

The Manucroche Anchor Clamp is made from stainless steel wire and designed to fit quickly and simply to steel structures as part of an EN795 anchorage system and has a breaking strength of 20.0kN

The double locking automatic closure is simply opened by depressing very firmly both sides, this then allows the opening to be passed over the steel. As soon as the force is removed to open the Manucroche it self-returns forming a loop over the steel.

Fitted in seconds this anchor ensures safety every time and can be removed just as easily.

The manucroche is available in a range of sizes:

• 75mm opening x 330mm
• 110mm opening x 350mm
• 140mm opening x 380mm

Always seek specialist advice to ensure that the steel you are connecting to is of sufficient strength to hold an EN795 anchor.

The Fixed Anchor D-ring is a fixed stainless steel anchor rated for one user.

It can be fixed overhead, on a wall or on the floor with M12 bolts to steel structures or to masonry with an M12 chemical resin fastener. The structure the anchor is mounted to must be capable of sustaining 12kN of force in the anticipated direction of loading.

The Fixed Anchor D-ring can be used as an anchorage point for fall arrest, positioning, suspension and fall restraint systems.

We supply Anchor Fixing kits specific to these anchor points and these are shown below.

The Fixed Anchorage Plate is a fixed stainless steel anchor rated for one user with a maximum allowable weight of 100kg.

It can be fixed overhead, on a wall or on the floor with M12 bolts to steel structures or to masonry with an M12 chemical resin fastener. The structure the anchor is mounted to must be capable of sustaining 12kN of force in the anticipated direction of loading.

The Fixed Anchorage Plate can be used as an anchorage point for fall arrest, positioning, suspension and fall restraint systems.

If a fall takes place the anchorage is designed to deform so it can be instantly identified as needing to be replaced.

We supply Anchor Fixing kits specific to these anchor points and these are shown below.

The vertical anchorage D-bolt is designed to be installed on vertical surfaces (preferably metallic) for connection of fall arrest and restraint equipment. The anchorage point may be used by 4 persons at the same time.

The anchorage D-bolt is made of forged steel and is supplied with an integrated 12mm threaded rod to enable fixing to the host structure.

The vertical anchorage D-bolt is certified to EN795:2012 Type A and has a minimum breaking strength of 23kN.

The Stainless Steel Anchorage Point is fixed stainless steel anchor rated for one user.

The anchor point can be installed on concrete structures with a minimum thickness of 180mm and they are secured with an M12 chemical resin fastener. Always check with an engineer that your structure can take an impact loading in the event of a fall.

It provides a connection point for fall arrest or restraint.

The unit is supplied with a tag detailing the serial number of the anchor for ease of identification during testing.

Our anchor fixing kits include resin, 2 nozzles, stainless nuts, bolts and washers for davit bases and height safety anchor points.

We also have the correct sizes of diamond core drill bits available to suit the installation along with ETA resin that is tested for use with both diamond core or impact drill installation.

The fittings provided in our kits are stainless steel so they will conform to water industry standards. Once your installation has hardened it can then be tested using our STAHT Bluetooth tester to the manufacturers and standards requirements so that a certificate of conformity can be issued.

Cone widths do need to be understood and if you scan the QR Code on our kits it will take you to a video of how to do the install correctly and then you are also able to complete a Fischer online test to show that you fully understand how to conduct and test the install correctly.

Ash Safety are a fully authorised Fischer Distributor and can supply any of their fixings for other tasks along with a Fischer CDM check using their latest software to ensure that cone strengths will take the loadings that you may be creating during your lifting process or if a fall takes place onto your anchor point.
