Fitted with 360° rotating eyebolt (self-aligning)
Component with multiple holes that can be used on concrete, steel, laminated wood and solid wood
Numerous options for securing to the supporting structure (with compound anchor and threaded rod, bolts, structural screws for wood, WLGNFIX combined with WRS structural reinforcement)
In the event of a fall, the anchoring device may deform without breaking, and can resist a nominal arrest load of 900 daN
The anchoring device may be used for rescue operations only within its operational limits and if in perfect working order
Advantages of A2 (AISI 304) stainless steel:
- remains unchanged over time, being resistant to weather induced corrosion
- because of its intrinsic characteristics, the material can dissipate more energy, in the event of a fall, compared to zinc-plated steel, thereby reducing the need for maintenance operations on the attachments and on the connection structure
Suitable for 1 operator equipped with appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), which in the event of a fall, must not generate a load of more than 6 kN
Also suitable for use in restraining operations
Not suitable for creating anchor lines
The deflection and displacement values refer to the load condition relative to the fall arrest of the first user
Warranty:
10 years for materials (from the date of purchase)
Anchorage to the load-bearing structure:
The support must be assessed and the anchor must be sized by a qualified technician. The suitability of the support for absorbing the stress exerted by the falling operator must always be tested (see standard UNI 11560:2022)
Certifications:
The anchoring device has undergone the tests required by standard UNI 11578:2015 and is compliant with type A. The ideal number of operators for using this device is stated in the catalogue. The certification will no longer be valid if the product is disassembled, altered, modified or improperly installed. Certifications can be downloaded from the website: www.wuerth.it/progettisti/prodotti/linea-vita/
Periodic inspection:
The anchoring system is subject to regular mandatory inspection at intervals of no more than 2 years, as required by Point 9.2.3. of standard UNI 11560:2022. The regular inspections must be performed by the intermediate installer and/or qualified technician, always assuming liability for the activity undertaken. The checks to be performed refer to the table 1, 2 and 3 of UNI 11560:2022
Further information:
Please refer to the information pages, the installation and operation manual and the system handbook supplied with the products. These documents can be downloaded from the website: www.wuerth.it/progettisti/prodotti/linea-vita/
Permanent precision anchoring device for protection against falls from height
For installation on flat structural elements, ridges and struts
WAAC-12 - Concrete - attachment using a chemical anchor
Requirements of the support structure:
- Min. class C20/25
- Min. thickness 140 mm, min. width 250 mm
Fasteners:
- Chemical anchor WIT-VM 250
- 1x M12 A2 stainless steel threaded rod (to be cut)
- 1x M12 A2 stainless steel hexagon nut
- 1x M12 A2 stainless steel flat washer
- or (according to ETA) 1x M12 threaded rod in pre-cut or metric A4 stainless steel
- 1x M12 A4 stainless steel hexagon nut
- 1x M12 A4 stainless steel washer
WAAC-12 - Steel - attachment using bolts
Requirements for the steel:
Min. thickness 6 mm and adequate structural strength
Fasteners:
- 1x M12 threaded rod cl. 70
- 1x M12 self-locking hexagon nut
- 2x M12 flat washers
- All hardware must be A2 stainless steel
WAAC12 - Wood - attachment using WLGNFIX
Requirements for the wood:
- Laminated wood min. class GL24, min. height 120 mm, min. width 110 mm
- Solid wood min. class C30/S1, min. height 140 mm, min. width 130 mm
Fasteners:
- 1x structural reinforcement WRS
- 1x mounting kit WLGNFIX
WAAC-VS - Wood - attachment using structural screws
Requirements for the wood:
- Laminated wood min. class GL24, min. height 100 mm, min. width 100 mm
- Solid wood min. class C30/S1, min. height 120 mm, min. width 120 mm
Fasteners - structural drilling screw:
- with WAAC-VS in contact with the load-bearing beam (no drawing): 2x ASSY®4 A2 WH screws, dia. 8 x 100 mm, A2 stainless steel
- with WAAC-VS on the beam/planking (above insulation/ventilation package): 2x ASSY®4 A2 WH screws, dia. 8 x … mm, stainless steel
The attachment instructions are based on criteria similar to those used for the certification testing operations on structural steel for the WAAC-12 component and GL24h laminated wood for the WAAC-VS component, and should not replace structural load testing, which must be carried out by an authorised designer. It is the designer's responsibility to ensure that the installation conditions are appropriate for the types of base material indicated above
