Surface Mounted Restraint Anchor
Design
The Safetor Roof Anchor Flat Surface Mounted 250 x 250 Anchor or (FSM-250) is manufactured from Stainless Steel and is riveted and bonded to corrugate or composite roofing.
We recommend using both methods of fixing systems:
- 1. Bonded
- 2. Riveted
This anchor can only be used as a total restraint anchor.
Total Restraint
Under Appendix F of the AS/NZS 1891.4:2009 Standard:
Total restraint is defined as the control on a person`s movement by means of a connection to an anchorage in such a way that it will physically prevent the person from reaching any position at which there is risk of a fall, either
- over an edge
- through a surface
- due to a failed moveable platform.
The Safetor FSM-250 anchor is only to be treated as a Total Restraint Anchor
