FAQs
How much weight can the Micro Anchors hold?
Each individual anchor is rated to hold up to 23kg (50 lbs) of gear.
Do these work with non-Peak Design straps?
These are designed to work with the Peak Design strap system and will not securely attach to standard generic camera straps.
How do I know when to replace the anchors?
Replace them if the outer black sheath shows signs of wear, specifically if the yellow inner core starts to show.
Can I leave these on the camera when using a tripod?
Yes, their low-profile design is intended to remain on the camera and generally does not interfere with most tripod plates.
What is the swivel mechanism for?
The swivel prevents your camera strap from twisting or getting tangled as you move your camera around.
Troubleshooting
Anchor is difficult to slide into the connector slot
Ensure there is no dirt or debris inside the slot; a gentle blast of compressed air usually clears the mechanism.
Visible fraying on the anchor loop
Cease use immediately and replace the anchor; do not attempt to repair the cord.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, simply loop the cord end of the anchor through your camera's strap lug, pass the plastic puck through the loop, and pull tight to secure. These anchors are universally compatible with all Peak Design straps and are intended to be left on the camera body permanently for convenience. Periodically inspect the anchor cords for signs of fraying or wear; if the yellow inner core becomes visible through the outer black sheath, the anchor should be replaced immediately to ensure the safety of your gear.
