Super Anchor Safety RLT Loop Top Field Weld Risers - 12", 18"

The 1044-WG and 1045-WG are hot-dip galvanized steel loop-top risers designed to be field welded to structure, providing a permanent anchor point for single-user fall protection. The 1044-WG has a 12-inch riser height, while the 1045-WG is 18-inch, both with 3.0-inch outer diameter risers. Each riser meets minimum base tensile strength of 5,000 lb and loop-top tensile rating of 10,000 lb, and is suitable for window washing, PPE tie-off, and horizontal lifeline use.

  • Weight: approximately 8.8–10.5 lb

Installation notes (summary)

• Weld all around per WPS using matching fillers; maintain edge distances/clearances; protect finishes; proof-load/test where required; label/ID for inspection and recertification.

• Select the riser height (12" for 1044-WG or 18" for 1045-WG) appropriate for structure and clearance needs.
• Position the riser, aligning the base to the structural member where it will be welded.
• Field-weld the riser per manufacturer’s welding procedure specifications.
• Allow the weld to cool, then inspect weld integrity and alignment.
• Install any loop-top attachments, and verify tensile performance via proof load or inspection prior to use.

Q: What is the difference between 1044-WG and 1045-WG?
A: 1044-WG is a 12" riser; 1045-WG is an 18" riser version of the weld-on loop-top riser.
