Elite Roofer's Favorite


If you want to know how good a product is, closely examine what's it's made from, how it's made, how it's installed, and what the PRO's think.


Our V-1 anchor is made in America (ISO 9001:2015 facility). The precisely formed, milled, and expertly TIG welded 7 gauge V-1 stainless steel anchor meets OSHA 1910 and 1926 requirements for one worker when installed through roof sheathing into a suitable roof rafter using (6) TimberLOK 4" hex-drive structural wood screws. As you will see in the video below, it installs simply and quickly with an impact driver.


Each order comes with 12 fasteners and a 5/16" hex drive. Additional fasteners are easily available at building supply retailers or buy a bucket of 250 fasteners online.


Recommended for best use with Petzl's triact-locking Vulcan or Oxan carabiners (available for purchase through our custom packages or any Petzl product dealer).
