Drilling for Fall Protection
It is important that you drill your SafeClaw anchor hole to the manufacturer’s required depth
and hole structure. All holes must be 3/4” in diameter and drilled at least 3” into the substrate.
The bored hole walls must be straight and parallel. NOTE: The bored hole must be of uniform
diameter and free of peaks and valleys on the inner wall surfaces. Only use quality industrial
grade rotary hammers and rotary hammer drill bits.
NEVER USE A BENT DRILL BIT!!
Drill a straight 3/4” diameter hole at least 3” deep into your substrate utilizing a rotary hammer
drill that uses industrial grade SDS bits.
Only use industrial grade rotary hammer drills and drill bits.
DO NOT USE masonry drill bits
Drill a 3/4” diameter hole at least 3” deep.
Blow hole clean with compressed air.
Drill hole straight into substrate.
When reusing a previously drilled hole always inspect the hole
carefully to ensure adequate integrity.
Insert unit 3 inches deep into hole.
Set the unit with a slight tug on the anchor loop.
The
Stop Sleeve
must always be partially inserted into the hole.

another proper hole if needed.
Inspect the unit for damage each time you use it. If damage has
occurred, dispose of unit.
