+44 (0)1580 830800 Website

Application

For urban tree planting applications.

Description

The rootball is held in position by driving tree anchors into the base of the tree pit and fastening the ArborGuy ratchet strap. This method of securing trees has many advantages over staking and is suitable for large root-balled trees.


For trees larger than 45 cm girth, use two SASAP kits per tree, six anchor wires positioned equally around the rootball, the two straps installed in a ‘Star of David’ pattern.


Consideration should be given to tree crown shape, size and density, location, and prevailing wind speed. Large,

dense and/or tall crowns in exposed or rooftop situations with high wind speeds may require extra stability.


Features and benefits:

  • Three high strength steel anchor wires.
  • Single piece, wide webbing anchor strap for fast installation.
  • Intergral ratchet tensioner.
  • Fully complements GreenBlue Urban packages.
  • Out of sight anchoring.
  • Wide webbing strap will not cut into the rootball.
  • No extra protection mat required.
  • Anchor head designed to eliminate damage to buried wires and utilities.
