Frequently asked questions
Is the Super Anchor Safety SideWinder3 CSA certified for Canadian jobsites?
No. The SideWinder3 is certified to ANSI Z359.14 and OSHA 1926.502 — not CSA Z259. Many Canadian sites accept ANSI/OSHA-rated equipment, but confirm with your authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) before use.
Does this SRL have to be anchored overhead?
Yes. As a Class 1 SRL it is designed for overhead anchorage at or above the back D-ring. For foot-level tie-off over an edge, choose a leading-edge (Class 2) SRL instead.
Which SideWinder3 option should I choose?
This listing offers 10 ft, 20 ft and 30 ft. Pick the option that matches your task and work envelope; they share the same core design and certification.
How often does a self-retracting lifeline need to be inspected?
Inspect before every use, and have a competent person perform a documented formal inspection at least annually (some SRLs also require periodic factory recertification — check the manufacturer’s schedule).
