SSRA1 8-Piece Contractor Pack, 8 Anchors + Nylon Tip Screws + Torque Wrench | Fall Protection Canada
SSRA1 8-Piece Contractor Pack — 8 Anchors, Nylon-Tip Set Screws & Torque Wrench
8-Worker Crew Outfit • OSHA/ANSI CertifiedThe SSRA1 8-Piece Contractor Pack outfits a full eight-worker crew with everything needed to safely tie off on standing seam metal roofs — without penetrating a single panel. Eight certified non-penetrating SSRA1 anchors, eight sets of nylon-tip set screws (24-gauge compatible), and one calibrated micro torque wrench in a single bundle. The largest stock SSRA1 crew pack offered, this kit delivers the lowest per-anchor cost for full-size roofing crews, commercial projects, and contractors who need standardized fall arrest hardware across multiple simultaneous job sites.
Overview
OSHA and ANSI standards require one independent 5,000 lb anchor point per worker for fall arrest. This 8-Piece Contractor Pack provides exactly eight certified tie-off points plus the calibrated torque tool needed for code-compliant installation — enough to outfit a full eight-worker roofing crew in a single bundle, or to maintain inventory across two simultaneous four-worker job sites. The SSRA1 is the industry's lightest OSHA/ANSI 5,000 lb-certified anchor at just 4.5 lb per unit, made from solid 6061-T6 aluminum with stainless steel hardware. Each anchor uses twelve set screws (six pairs of opposing screws) gripping the standing seam without ever touching the roof panel — preserving the roof warranty and creating zero leak risk. The included torque wrench is non-negotiable for proper installation: cupped-tip set screws must be torqued to exactly 90 in-lbs (22-gauge steel), and nylon-tip set screws to 180–200 in-lbs (22- or 24-gauge steel). Impact drivers strip threads and crush seams — the calibrated micro torque wrench prevents both. The bundle ships with installed cupped-tip set screws on each anchor plus an additional set of nylon-tip screws so each crew member has both options on hand for whatever panel gauge they encounter on site.
Key Features
Outfits an 8-Worker Crew
Eight certified independent tie-off points satisfy the OSHA/ANSI requirement of one 5,000 lb anchor per worker for fall arrest. Largest single-bundle SSRA1 crew pack offered — best per-anchor value.
Calibrated Torque Wrench Included
1/4" drive micro torque wrench with 3/16" socket bit handles all 96 set screws across the kit. Click-to-torque design ensures uniform installation and prevents seam damage.
Both Set Screw Types Included
Each anchor ships with 12 cupped-tip set screws (installed) for 22-gauge steel plus an extra pack of 12 nylon-tip set screws for 22- or 24-gauge steel. Ready for any panel on any site.
14,500 lb Ultimate Failure Tested
Independent ISO 17025/ANSI Z359.18-certified lab tested each SSRA1 to 14,500 lb ultimate failure — nearly 3× the OSHA/ANSI 5,000 lb minimum. Class-leading safety margin.
Universal Standing Seam Fit
Patented universal-fit body works with over 500 standing seam panel profiles (95% of the market) including snaplock, T-seams, bulb seams, mechanical lock, and trapezoidal panels.
Salt Spray & Corrosion Tested
ASTM B-117 accelerated salt spray tested. 6061-T6 aluminum body with stainless steel components — rust-free for permanent installations and coastal jobsite use.

Standards & Compliance Notice
OSHA/ANSI Compliant — CSA Z259.15 Not Third-Party Certified
The SSRA1 is OSHA 1926.502/1910.66 and ANSI Z359.18 compliant, with a 5,000 lb minimum static strength rating in all directions of pull. Each anchor was independently tested by an ISO 17025/ANSI Z359.18-accredited lab to a 14,500 lb ultimate breaking strength — nearly 3× the regulatory minimum. The manufacturer does not list CSA Z259.15 (Anchorage Connectors) third-party certification on the product specifications. Canadian provincial OHS codes generally require anchor points to either meet CSA Z259.15 or be rated by a qualified professional engineer to support 22.2 kN (5,000 lbs) per worker for fall arrest. The SSRA1 meets and substantially exceeds the strength requirement, but acceptance for Canadian fall arrest use is the responsibility of the installing party, a qualified professional engineer, or the site safety officer. Workers must always pair the SSRA1 with an inline shock absorber or shock pack — required by the manufacturer regardless of certification jurisdiction.

Compatibility — Standing Seam Profiles
The SSRA1 fits over 95% of standing seam panels in the industry — over 500 specific profiles including snaplock, single-lock, double-lock, T-seam, bulb seam, mechanical lock, MR-24, and trapezoidal styles. Approved for 22- and 24-gauge steel only. Not compatible with aluminum, copper, zinc, or other soft metals (set-screw pressure deforms soft metals and compromises grip). Not compatible with curved, tapered, or batten-seam profiles. Nailstrip-style panels are approximately 50% compatible — some seams are too wide at the base for proper engagement. Always perform a test fit before committing to a full installation using an RCT seam clamp or single SSRA1 anchor against your exact panel profile.
Why the Torque Wrench Matters
The SSRA1 holds 5,000 lb because the set screws are torqued to a specific in-pound value — not "tight enough by feel." Cupped-tip screws on 22-gauge steel must hit exactly 90 in-lbs. Nylon-tip screws on 22- or 24-gauge steel must hit 180–200 in-lbs. Under-torque means the anchor can slip during a fall event. Over-torque can strip the threads or crush the standing seam itself, voiding both the anchor's grip and potentially the roof warranty. Impact drivers are strictly prohibited — they spin too fast, apply uncontrolled torque, and routinely cause both failures. The included calibrated micro torque wrench has a click-to-torque mechanism that audibly signals when proper torque is reached, eliminating guesswork. One precision torque wrench services all eight anchors in this Contractor Pack — 96 set screw installations across the full kit.
Permanent Fall Protection Installations
The SSRA1's solid 6061-T6 aluminum body and stainless steel hardware make it a leading choice for permanent fall arrest tie-off points on commercial facilities, not just temporary jobsite use. The anchor has been ANSI/ASTM B-117 salt-spray tested for accelerated corrosion resistance, making it suitable for coastal installations and outdoor exposure. For permanent installations on Canadian commercial buildings, a qualified professional engineer should review the specific roof structure, anchor placement, and load path before final approval — the SSRA1 provides the certified anchor strength but the supporting structure's capacity to withstand fall forces remains the responsibility of the building owner and the engineer of record.
