PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Figure 1 illustrates the 3M™ A-Frame Rail System. The A-Frame Rail Fall Arrest System (Figure 1) is an A-frame supported
Trolley Rail assembly for overhead horizontal anchorage of 3M fall arrest or fall restraint equipment. Wheeled anchorage devices
can travel along the rail assembly and serve as moving anchorage points for Self-Retracting Devices(SRDs) or Lanyards. The rail
assemblies are supported in a horizontal overhead position by A-Frame Uprights equipped with Swiveling Wheel Assemblies and
Top-Wind Jacks for portability and secure positioning.
Figure 2 illustrates the components of the A-Frame Rail System specified in Table 1. The system includes a Horizontal Rail
Assembly with up to four trolleys(not pictured, sold separately) that ride on the rail to any position along the Rail Assembly. The
trolleys serve as attachment points for the anchorage of a Personal Fall Arrest System(PFAS). The system can be moved by hand
or towed by a maintenance vehicle when equipped with proper accessories.
