Guardian Fall Protection 484 Bull Ring Anchor

Product Description

The GUARDIAN FALL PROTECTION 484 Bull Ring Anchor is a roof-mounted fall protection anchor designed for personal fall arrest, restraint, and work positioning applications. It accommodates a worker weight capacity range of 130 to 420 pounds, including all clothing, tools, and equipment carried on the job. Installation requires a substrate of roof truss or support beam that is a minimum of 3 inches thick CDX plywood or better. Licensed roofing and construction safety professionals install this anchor as part of a compliant fall protection system on residential and light commercial structures.

This anchor is suited for use in residential roofing, new construction framing, and re-roofing applications where a temporary or permanent overhead anchorage point is required. It is compatible with standard personal fall arrest system (PFAS) components including lanyards, self-retracting lifelines, and harnesses that meet applicable OSHA and ANSI Z359 requirements. The anchor is fastened directly to roof truss or structural beam substrate using specified hardware included or sourced to spec.
