3M Protecta Pro Concrete D-Ring Anchorage Plate AJ720A Steel Anchor

Description

Product Overview

The 3M Protecta Pro AJ720A concrete D‑ring anchorage plate is engineered to deliver a robust, low‑profile steel anchor point for fall protection systems in demanding industrial environments. Constructed from high‑strength steel, the plate measures 6″ x 6″ x 0.5″ and is designed to sit flush against concrete surfaces, minimizing trip hazards while providing a reliable tie‑off location. The plate includes four pre‑installed 1/2″ × 3‑3/4″ bolts that are positioned through precisely drilled 9/16″ holes, allowing for rapid and secure installation using standard concrete anchor bolts. This product complies with OSHA 1910.140 and OSHA 1926.502 regulations, ensuring that it meets the rigorous safety standards required for occupational fall arrest applications. Its compact design, durable material, and engineered load‑bearing capacity make it an essential component for any fall protection kit, especially when used in conjunction with compatible D‑ring harnesses and lanyards.

Usage

The anchorage plate is intended for use on concrete floors, slabs, and walls in a variety of industrial settings, including construction sites, manufacturing plants, warehouses, and maintenance facilities. It is ideal for workers who require a permanent or semi‑permanent anchor point for personal fall arrest systems, such as roofers, steel erectors, and equipment installers. The low‑profile nature of the plate allows it to be installed in tight spaces where larger anchorage solutions would be impractical. Because the plate is pre‑drilled with standard‑size holes, it can be paired with a range of concrete bolt kits, making it adaptable to different installation requirements. The product is strictly for occupational use and is not intended for consumer sale, reinforcing its suitability for professional safety programs and compliance‑driven safety plans.

FAQ

What type of concrete surfaces can the anchorage plate be installed on?

The plate is suitable for standard concrete slabs, floors, and walls with a compressive strength of at least 3,000 psi. It can be used on both new and existing concrete structures, provided the surface is clean, level, and free of cracks that could compromise the anchor’s integrity.

Can the anchorage plate be used with any fall arrest system?

Yes, the D‑ring on the plate is compatible with most 3M and third‑party harnesses, lanyards, and self‑retracting lifelines that are designed for D‑ring tie‑off points. Always verify that the combined weight of the worker and equipment does not exceed the plate’s rated load capacity.

How many bolts are included and what sizes are they?

The package includes four steel bolts, each measuring 1/2″ in diameter and 3‑3/4″ in length. These bolts are designed to fit the pre‑drilled 9/16″ holes on the plate, allowing for a secure and stable connection to the concrete substrate.

Is the anchorage plate reusable after removal?

Yes, the plate can be removed and re‑installed if the bolts are not damaged and the concrete surface remains intact. However, it is recommended to inspect the plate and bolts for any signs of wear or deformation before reuse to maintain safety standards.

What warranty does 3M provide for this product?

3M offers a limited warranty that covers manufacturing defects and material failures for a period of one year from the date of purchase. For detailed warranty terms, consult the product documentation or contact 3M customer support.
