The Malta Dynamics Truss Anchor is a fall protection anchor for new construction and for work in the attic space of an existing structure. It fastens directly to an existing wood truss and gives a tie-off point where there is otherwise nothing to connect to, which is why electricians and solar installers reach for it most.
