Our Protect fastening system
When is safe really safe?
When it comes to fall arrest protection in particular and the fastening of these connected elements, particular attention must be paid to the fasteners. Even better would be to use a comprehensively tested system that is one of the first to offer an AbZ (proof of suitability, kit) for the entire system and not just its individual components. Why is this important? Well, because it is quite simply one less thing to worry about during planning.
Why is a tested fastening key?
The short answer? Because only a tested solution can also guarantee a safe result. The more detailed answer would be that your fall arrester elements can only achieve 100 % performance if they can rely on the safety of the fastening system. If the installation of the elements is performed professionally, compliantly and safely. Our Protect fastening system offers all of this – no matter if in a new building or a renovation.
What is the Protect fastening system?
Our fastening solution was developed in-house and consists of a stable and resistant metal strip, our Protect, into which an adjusting screw is pressed. This is used for fastening directly at the window frame profile and for setting the distance in the joint. Thanks to the different strip and screw lengths and the optionally available offset adjusting screw, the full flexibility of the system is guaranteed. The sealing can be selected freely at any time as long as this is performed in compliance with the regulations. Sealing with pre-compressed tapes is a particularly simple option here, such as Multifunctional Tapes TrioSDL600 or 750.
The second component comes into play at the various anchoring holes of our blaugelb Protect: Our blaugelb Frame Screw Fix FK-T30 with flat head to the anchor base. This fastener by itself already has an RC2 approval and is even more versatile when used in a system. Available in a galvanised version or made of high-quality stainless steel.
