Guardian Fall Protection 00420 Truss Boss Anchor Kit

The Guardian Truss Boss Anchor Kit (00420) is a truss-mounted anchorage solution engineered for early installation during residential construction. This kit enables safe pre-placement of anchor points before roof trusses are erected, allowing instant fall protection tie-off as the truss is installed. Made from non-corrosive galvanized steel, and including flashing and a weatherproof cap, it forms a watertight seal once the roofing is installed. Lightweight and quick to install without penetrating roof sheathing, the Truss Boss Kit is ideal for fall arrest, restraint, and positioning systems while meeting OSHA and ANSI safety standards.
