SeamSAFE™ Roof Anchor
Manufactured by Construction Specialty Anchors LLC, the SeamSAFE Roof Anchor has been tested
to meet or exceed OSHA and ANSI standards. This anchor is intended to be a part of a complete fall
arrest system meeting all OSHA requirements. All users must read, understand, and follow these
manufacturer instructions and warnings for each component of the system before use. Failure to do
so may result in serious injury or death.
This device does not guarantee your safety. Use of this device is only expected to reduce the
likelihood of serious injury and limit the fall distance if a fall occurs. Additional personal protective
equipment should also be considered to limit the likelihood of a fall.
The SeamSAFE Roof Anchor is only for use with compatible equipment as determined by a
competent roong professional. The user should wear a full-body harness and a shock-absorbing
lanyard designed to reduce fall forces to 900 lbs. and to limit free fall to less than 6 feet, thereby
reducing forces on the body to less than 1,800 lbs.
The SeamSAFE Standing Seam Roof Anchor is compatible with standing seam metal roof panels only
if the roong system is installed using the roong-system manufacturer’s instructions. Construction
Specialty Anchors accepts no liability or responsibility for the safety of the user when using the
SeamSAFE Roof Anchor on a roong system that is not installed according to the roof-system
manufacturer’s instructions and guidelines.
Federal, state, and local laws and regulations (including but not limited to OSHA and ANSI) must
be followed when installing, using, and removing fall protection equipment. These manufacturer
instructions are to be incorporated into your safety program and used as part of an employee
training program for the SeamSAFE Roof Anchor.
It is the purchaser’s responsibility to ensure that all users are provided with and have access to these
manufacturer instructions and that they read and follow them carefully. If you have any questions
concerning the compatibility, application, installation, use, or maintenance of the SeamSAFE Roof
Anchor, please call 855-263-1521.
Failure to inspect, install, use, and/or remove equipment in a safe manner by skilled and trained
craftsmen can result in serious injury or death. Each application will be dierent. You must plan for
and follow safe work practices for each installation and removal of safety equipment.
The SeamSAFE Roof Anchor is designed for individual use on a standing seam roof. Maximum
capacity is one person per anchor. The support structure must be capable of sustaining a 5,000 lb.
static load. The user is responsible for determining
which types of standing seam panels on which to
use the SeamSAFE Roof Anchor. For a review of
the SeamSAFE Roof Anchor’s compatibility with a
specic standing-seam metal roof system, please call
855-263-1521.
ANCHOR INSPECTION
Before installing a SeamSAFE Roof Anchor, an
authorized, competent roong professional must
inspect the device for damage. Do not use if damaged.
After installation, inspect anchor each day before use.

ANCHOR STEP-BY-STEP INSTALLATION
1 Create a secure safe zone and tie-o while anchor is being
installed.
2 Use the clip included with the anchor to attach the anchor to
your harness, which will allow you to be hands-free as you climb
the ladder. The harness used must meet OSHA standards.
3 The anchor must be positioned a minimum of 4 feet away from
the eave or any unprotected edge.
4 Attach the anchor by separating the two aluminum blocks and clamping them on a single
standing seam of a metal roof. Never place anything between jaws of the device and the roof
sheets. Metal-to-metal contact is required.
5 Check to make sure that the ange of the clamp is hooked under the seam over a clip that is
fastened down before tightening the bolts.
6 Snug the center bolt followed by both end bolts. (This includes washers, nuts, and locking nuts.)
Then use the same sequence to torque the bolts to 60 ft. lbs. This can be achieved using a 12”
long 3⁄4”box-end wrench.
7 Attach your personal harness/lanyard system to the anchor. Make sure harness does not have
enough slack to allow you to fall over the edge of the roof. Although the anchor will hold securely
if the user falls over the edge of the roof, it is designed to break the user’s fall on the roof.
8 If using multiple SeamSAFE Roof Anchors across a single roof area, place the anchors two or more
roong panel seams apart. Do not use more than one anchor per seam on panel sizes under 35
feet in total length.
Note: Some roof material may be scratched, dimpled, dented, or bent by use of this device. This
is more likely to happen if workers pull or push on the anchor, if workers are rough in placement/
removal of the anchor, or during a fall arrest. If damage occurs, the user is responsible for repairing
marks, scratches, or other damage to roofs.
SeamSAFE™ Roof Bracket
SeamSAFE Roof Brackets are designed for use only with SeamSAFE Roof Anchors. A minimum of
two SeamSAFE Roof Anchors and Roof Brackets are required for all applications, however some
applications may require more than two. This must be determined by an authorized, competent
roong professional. Please review the installation instructions for SeamSAFE Roof Anchors for
proper anchor installation.
BRACKET INSPECTION
Before installing SeamSAFE Roof Brackets, an authorized, competent roong professional must
inspect devices for damage. Do not use if damaged. After installation, inspect brackets each day
before use.
BRACKET STEP-BY-STEP INSTALLATION
1 Create a safe zone and tie o while installation is performed.
2 Install SeamSAFE Roof Anchors in accordance with instructions.
3 Remove center bolt and“D”ring from each anchor.
4 Place SeamSAFE Roof Bracket over anchor.

5 Line up holes on side and install ½”replacement bolt (1), nut (1) and washers (2); all provided with
bracket.
6 Adjust bracket to achieve desired angle, install locking pin through top adjustable slide and leveling arm,
and lock clip to hold in place.
7 Install walk board.
SeamSAFE™ Mounting Adapter
The SeamSAFE Mounting Adapter is designed for use with the SeamSAFE Roof Anchor to securely mount
all types of apparatus to standing seam roofs, including HVAC units, industrial piping, permanent steps,
handrail systems, solar panels, walkways, satellite dishes and more. Please review the installation instructions
for SeamSAFE Roof Anchors for proper anchor installation.
ADAPTER INSPECTION
Before installing a SeamSAFE Mounting Adapter, an authorized, competent roong professional must
inspect the device for damage. Do not use if damaged. After installation, inspect the mount to ensure
equipment is secure and will not detach.
ADAPTER STEP-BY-STEP INSTALLATION
1 Create a safe zone and tie o while installation is performed
2 Install SeamSAFE Roof Anchor in accordance with instructions.
3 Remove“D”ring from anchor by removing the center bolt.
4 In the“D”ring’s place, insert mounting adapter.
5 Secure by replacing the center bolt, including washers, nuts, and locking nuts.
6 Tighten using a 12”long 3⁄4”box-end wrench. Torque bolts to 60 ft. lbs. The SeamSAFE Mounting Adapter
is now ready to use.
7 Use appropriate fasteners that are compatible with the rooftop apparatus to reliably attach equipment
to the adapter. Examine to ensure attachment is secure.
