Abstract
A secure safety anchor that is easy to utilize is provided for attachment to structural angle irons in marine installations and the like. The anchor includes a vise grips with movable and stationary jaws, and a head welded to the stationary jaw. A flange surface portion of the head extends substantially perpendicular to an imaginary line between the vise grips jaws when in the clamping position, and a number of force concentrating set screws pass through the flange surface at an angle of about 15 degrees with respect to the imaginary line. A through-extending opening in the head provides for attachment of a safety belt clasp.
