80 anchor devices | anchor platesAnchor PlatesA Classic CMC InnovationUL Classified to NFPA 1983 – General UseA CMC original design that has withstood the test of time, ourAnchor Plates keep the carabiners holding the different parts ofyour rescue system from jamming together. The hardware becomes easierto see, making safety checks more accurate. It can also keep you fromclipping a carabiner into the wrong loop of the anchor web. For anchorsystems, it makes an excellent collection point. We use the Anchor Plate inCMC Rope Rescue classes, which allows our students to set up systemsfaster with fewer mistakes. Hole diameters: small – 7/8 in. (22 cm),large – 2 in. (51 cm).Item # Model 3σ MBS Weight Price300610 Aluminum, Blue 50 kN (11,240 lbf.) 6 oz.

Thelarge hole acts as a collection point for multi-point anchors. Thesmall holes keep carabiners separated, making them easier towork with when the system is loaded, and the oblong shapemakes inserting carabiners easier and quicker. Hole diameters:small – 5/8 in. (16 mm), large – 1 in. (25 mm).Item # 3σ MBS WeightPrice300623 48 kN (10,790 lbf.) 2 oz.

The Delta shape can be used to rig anchors. The Delta and the HalfMoon can be used as a chest harness connector. While slower to open and close than a carabiner, they canbe more secure when tightened down — and they cost less.Twenty years ago CMCintroduced the Anchor Plateas a strong, lightweight, and compactcollection point for connecting a rescuesystem to an anchor. And that point is animportant feature. Over the years we’veseen a steady progression of “bigger, better”anchor and rigging plates with more andmore holes entering the market. But thebigger the plate, the less like a collectionpoint it becomes, increasing the potentialfor rotation of the plate, creating additionalsystem extension and shock-loading if anymovement or failure of an anchor occurs.In 20 years of use, we’ve not seen anoperational need for more holes, a largersize, or more weight.Item # Bar Diameter Inside Diameter MBS Weight Price305011 1/2 in.

The advantage of the patented shape is that it providesa more secure attachment around structural lumber and overwindow ledges by directing the spine toward flat surfaces whenloaded. The slotted handle allows for girth hitching around largeranchor points. This escape anchor is made from a high-strengthaluminum alloy with an anodized finish. The captive eye providesgreater anchoring versatility and the 10-mm attachment holeaccepts most cord or web, making our Flash Hook the best choicefor personal escape.UL Classified to NFPA 1983 – General UseDesigned by firefighters, our Roof Anchor quickly provides a secure anchorpoint for roof operations. Set the anchor on the roof and hammer the 1/2-inch(12.7 mm) diameter spike into the surface. When not in use, the spike folds intothe handle for safe storage and transport. The Roof Anchor’s working strengthwill depend on the structural integrity of the surface, including any damagecaused by the spike. Because of the highly variable strength of roof materialsand difficulty in assessing this strength accurately, the use of a second RoofAnchor or multiple units should be standard protocol.escape & roof | anchor devices 81Item # 3σ MBS Dimensions Weight Price300980 25 kN (5,620 lbf.) 7 x 4.75 in.
