Roof peak anchors are essential components of fall protection systems for workers who need to access rooftops for maintenance or construction purposes. These anchors provide a secure attachment point for harnesses, ensuring the safety of workers at heights. The development of reusable roof peak anchors has revolutionized the safety standards in the construction industry, as they offer a cost-effective and sustainable solution for companies looking to comply with safety regulations. By investing in reusable roof peak anchors, companies can significantly reduce their environmental footprint by lowering the amount of waste produced from disposable anchors, while also saving money in the long run.
In addition to its environmental and cost-saving benefits, reusable roof peak anchors also offer greater versatility and convenience for workers. These anchors are designed to be easily installed and removed, allowing for quick and efficient setup at different work sites. Workers can also easily adjust the anchors to fit different roof structures, ensuring a secure and stable attachment point regardless of the roof design. Overall, the introduction of reusable roof peak anchors has set a new standard for fall protection in the construction industry, emphasizing the importance of sustainability, safety, and efficiency in modern workplace practices.
Q. Can I use the temper anchor with nails?
A. Yes. Temper can be installed using 16d (16 penny) galvanized, or duplex (double headed) nails. However, when in less than a 4/12 roof pitch steepness, the worker MUST be in fall restraint instead of fall arrest.
Q. Why?
A. The 2″ screws have adequate holding power no matter what the pitch, but nails lose holding power compared to the screws depending on how flat the anchor is. In the 12/12 pitch angle the nails actually pull against on another at an angle, whereas when the anchor is flat they simply pull out all in the same direction. Double headed nails are an advantage because they are easier to pull out and don’t require a screw gun.
Q. Can I install the temper on a flat roof if I’m using nails?
A. Yes. But you must be set up in a fall restraint situation when using nails instead of the screws. Fall restraint actually restrains the worker from leaving the edge of the building. (ie. dog tied up so it can’t actually run out in the road even if it wanted to).
Q. Do I have to buy the fasteners from you if mine get worn?
A. No, you may use any equivalent #12 x 2″ screw or 3.5″ 16d galvanized or duplex nail.
