Trapezoidal Surface Anchor
Design
The Safetor Trapezoidal Surface Anchor or (TSA-490) is manufactured from Stainless Steel and is riveted and bonded to Trapezoidal 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.
AS/NZS 1891.4:2009 Standards (See Appendix F) The Safetor Trapezoidal Surface Anchor or (TSA-490) is only to be treated as a Total Restraint Anchor.

Testing
The load testing carried out by MTL has shown that this type of anchor will sustain the loading required for total restraint.
Installation
The installation should only to be carried out by a competent person as set out in the AS/NZS 1891.4:2009 Standards. Collins Corporation Ltd. provide a warranty on product performance of the anchor but not the structure or the roof sheeting. It is the responsibility of the installer, building designer, or building owner to ensure that the structure to which the anchor is attached will support a load as set out in Appendix F of the AS/NZS 1891.4:2009 Standard. If there is any doubt about the structures adequacy, a structural engineer should be consulted.
