Ascent™ Structural Anchor Posts

The latest addition to our Ascent post family are the new Ascent Anchor device and Ascent Anchor Point.

The Ascent Anchor device has 3 applications;

1. A structural anchor designed for use in conjunction with a Cable Based Fall Protection system conforming to EN 795 Class C
2. As a stand-alone EN 795 Class A anchor point for individual Fall protection.
3. As an anchor for Industrial Roped Access to BS 8610:2017 (including rescue)

The post is designed & tested specifically for use on Reinforced Concrete roofs and is available in 4 heights; 200, 400, 600 & 800mm to suit varying roof build ups.

The Ascent Anchor Point has 2 applications;

1. An anchor point for Industrial Roped Access to BS 8610:2017 (including rescue)
2. As a stand-alone EN 795 Class A anchor point for individual Fall protection.

The post is designed & tested specifically for use on Reinforced Concrete roofs and is available in 4 heights; 200, 400, 600 & 800mm to suit varying roof build ups.

The Ascent Anchor Device is supplied with Three M12 threaded inserts in the top of the post. These inserts are designed & tested to receive anchor points for both Fall Protection and Abseil.

For Fall Protection the M12 insert suits components supplied by the majority of the leading Cable Based Engineered Fall Protection system suppliers. It is the responsibility of the System designer to ensure that the loads potentially generated by the system do not exceed the capacity of the anchor device.

For use in Industrial Roped Access applications the Ascent Abseil Point is designed specifically for attachment by Industrial Rope Access Technicians. It is tested for use in both Rope Access and work positioning to BS 8610:2017 Class A 3 and Rescue – accompanied descent, remotely or self –operated – direct attachment & redirect attachment and evacuation Class A4, 5, 6 & 7.

Weathering Caps can also be supplied for our fall protection post.

Ascent Fall Protection Posts are manufactured from Galvanised Mild Steel. The Posts are tested as a complete anchor system to reinforced concrete, but are typically supplied as a seperate Anchor Device & Anchor Point (S) with the specialist installer providing the permanent fixing element suitable to the background to which the anchor device is to be affixed. All Ascent™ products have been approved through the necessary safety & structural calculation.
