Super Anchor Safety 1029 - D-Shakl2 Anchor

A rugged, versatile anchor for single-user fall protection that you can mount in a variety of ways depending on the structure. The D-ShakL2 uses a heavy-duty shackle with a captured, free-rotating D-ring to simplify clipping in and reduce twist at the connection point. Install temporarily to wood framing with WS screws, or make it permanent by bolting or welding to steel or by using engineered concrete anchors. Rated to 5,000 lb and built with a hot-dip galvanized finish for long service life, it’s a dependable choice when you want one anchor that covers multiple applications.

Features

• Steel construction with durable hot-dip galvanized finish for corrosion resistance
• Captured forged D-ring rotates smoothly to aid connection and reduce gate loading risk
• Multiple attachment options:
  • temporary wood framing with WS wood screws
  • permanent through-bolting (9/16 in bolt holes accept common 3/8 in or 1/2 in hardware)
  • field-weld to compatible steel members (per qualified person’s direction)
  • engineered concrete attachment using appropriate anchors
• Dual hole pattern: two 9/16 in bolt holes and two 5/16 in WS screw holes; use one method per install and do not mix fastener types
• Strength and capacity: minimum tensile 5,000 lb; single user up to 310 lb including tools and equipment (when used with an energy absorber, per instructions)
• Service zones: fall arrest within approximately ±30° of the anchor’s vertical axis; fall restraint permitted where no free-fall hazard exists
• SRL and HLL guidance: compatible with self-retracting lifelines when installed per screw/bolt specifications and clearance requirements; horizontal lifeline use only in engineered systems (typically bolt-attached or welded, not WS-screw temporary installs)
• Typical applications: rooftops, beams, mezzanines, and vertical wall locations when attached as specified; position as high as practical and in line with the expected fall path to reduce swing-fall
• Compliance: OSHA 1926.502; ANSI Z359.18 Type D (also used in systems conforming to Z359.1/A10.32 when installed per instructions)
• Practical details: compact 3/16 in shackle stock; common shackle size around 4.5 in × 2.0 in; labeled with model and date code for inspection and recordkeeping

• Q: Where can I mount this anchor and what substrates are acceptable?
  A: Mount directly into solid structure—wood trusses/rafters/beams for temporary installs with approved screws or lag bolts, or make it permanent by through-bolting or welding to steel, or by using engineered concrete anchors. Never fasten to roof sheathing or other non-structural materials.
• Q: Which fasteners are approved, and can I mix fastener types or holes?
  A: Use one method per installation only. For wood, use the specified WS screws in the 5/16" holes for temporary installs, or 18-8 stainless lag bolts (3/8" × 3.0" or 1/2" × 3.0") in the 9/16" holes for permanent wood attachment. For steel, use properly sized through-bolts or weld per procedure. Do not mix screws and bolts in the same installation or use the wrong holes.
• Q: Can I use a self-retracting lifeline (SRL) or a horizontal lifeline (HLL) with this anchor?
  A: SRLs are acceptable when the anchor is installed per the manual and required fall clearance is maintained. HLL use must be specifically engineered and approved by a qualified person and is typically limited to bolt-attached or welded configurations—not WS-screw temporary installs.
• Q: How should I orient the anchor and what service zones apply?
  A: Position the anchor as high as practical and keep the tie-off aligned with the expected fall path to reduce swing-fall. Follow service zones: fall arrest use within about ±30° of the anchor’s vertical working axis; fall restraint is allowed 360° around the anchor where no free-fall hazard exists. Inspect before each use and remove from service after any fall event or if damage is observed.
