The Super Anchor TrussBar (2833) is a temporary anchor for production framers. It bolts or pins to 2x4 or 2x6 wood trusses at predetermined locations before the decking goes on, gives two workers a fall-arrest tie-off during framing and sheeting, and then gets decked over with its two 2 ft tie-off straps left exposed for every trade that follows. Nothing stays usable on the finished house: the roofer cuts the straps off at the end.

How framers install and use the TrussBar on a roof
Install the TrussBar onto the truss at the predetermined locations, with Grade 8 bolts (2833) or the stainless detent pin (2833-DP). Use it for fall protection during the framing and sheeting stage, then deck over the top of it and feed the tie-off straps up through or between the sheeting so all trades have tie-off points. When the house is finished the roofer cuts off the straps; the TrussBar stays attached to the truss but is no longer usable. It can also be used the same way as the Safety Bar.
