4. Place Stingray Anchor at selected installation location on structural beam. Tilt Base Assembly
to one side and tighten Mounting Bolt on that side until snug. Repeat for opposite side. Ensure
back of Base Assembly throat is flush against beam flange.
5. With compatible wrench, ensure both Mounting Bolts are snug against beam flange.
6. Insert both Clamp Assemblies through corresponding installation locations, and hook over
beam flange. Secure both Clamp Assemblies with corresponding wing nuts and tighten until
snug. Tap both wing nuts with a hammer to fully secure.
7. Re-tighten all fasteners mentioned in steps 1-6 to ensure entire Stingray Anchor is fully
secured to structural beam.
8. Repeat steps 1-7 for all Stingray Anchors.
Absorbinator and HLL Installation:
1. Typical HLL systems include cable (MUST be 3/8” aircraft cable), turnbuckle tensioner, cable
clamps, anchor points (Stingray Anchors), a shock absorber (Absorbinator), and fasteners.
ALWAYS read and understand all equipment manufacturer’s instructions.
2. Ensure all Stingray Anchors are aligned by using a string line between the end anchorage
points. HLL Cable must be able to connect to all applicable Stingray Anchor connection points
and travel through all applicable Pass-Through Accessories, while always maintaining
appropriate line sag as specified by Absorbinator instruction manual.
3. Fully plan all anticipated uses of Stingray Anchor HLL System and maximum number of PFAS
that will attach to entire system at one time. Minimum 2 Absorbinators required for systems
greater than 60’. 1 Absorbinator required for every 2 PFAS attached to system. MAXIMUM 2 PFAS
per span. 2 PFAS maximum for entire system unless following conditions are met:
• For entire Stingray Anchor System to allow for more than maximum 2 PFAS, additional
Absorbinators are required.
• Absorbinator system must be attached to connection point of first Stingray Anchor. HLL Cable
must connect to Absorbinator system, then terminate at connection point of second Stingray.
This is considered 1 span.
• To continue system with additional spans, on remaining connection point of second Stingray
Anchor, another Absorbinator system MUST be installed, and a separate HLL Cable MUST be
attached to Absorbinator and terminated at next selected Stingray Anchor connection point.
• When transferring between spans within a continuous Stingray Anchor HLL System, ALWAYS
maintain 100% tie-off. NEVER disconnect PFAS from HLL System before connecting to next span.
A dual-leg lanyard or SRL, or other compatible equipment, is necessary to maintain 100%
tie-off in this manner.
• Even with proper number of Absorbinators, MAXIMUM 6 PFAS attachments per system.
