An anchor point designed for use in concrete, where the eyebolt will remain exposed for attachment.
SafetyLink’s ConcreteLink is an extremely versatile anchor with a number of different eyebolt/insert combinations. The eyebolt range starts with SafetyLink’s Standard Eyebolt which is designed for fall arrest, it’s long tapered stem is designed to absorb energy while arresting a fall therefore reducing the load off the structure and the person in the event of a fall.
Alternatively SafetyLink’s Abseiling Eyebolt is a fall arrest rope access anchor which uses the same tapered concept as the standard eyebolt but incorporates a shorter design enabling the eyebolt to withstand a live load without activating the bending motion that occurs when arresting a fall. Where a low profile design is more desirable a Collared Eyebolt can be used to achieve this.
