1. A fall arrest roof mount anchor comprising a mounting plate having a uniform cross-section defining:
a raised central portion;
side portions for roof attachment; and
an anchor bolt, wherein:
the raised central portion has a swivel eye anchor point;
the mounting plate further comprises channel wall portions independent of the raised central portion and the side portions, the channel wall portions projecting from an under surface of the raised central portion, thereby defining a channel extending along the under surface of the raised central portion and coinciding with the swivel eye anchor point;
the channel wall portions project parallel to each other from the under surface of the raised central portion;
the anchor point has a hole through an upper surface of the raised central portion into the channel thereunderneath;
the anchor bolt extends through the hole and wherein the channel captures a locknut therefor, the channel preventing free rotation of the locknut; and
the side portions being directly attached to and extending continuously from the raised central portion.
