We use the RA-35 on the link you had below.  They work really well because they 
only take a few screws.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Temporary Roof Anchors

Wrenches,
Of our residential installs, i would guess that at least 80% are done on 
composite asphalt shingle roofs typically ranging from 13 to 33deg pitch. The 
rest are made up of various metal roofs, cedar shake, rubber shingles, concrete 
tile, etc...
Obviously, we require roof anchors for fall protection.  Rarely do we come 
across existing homes that have roof anchors already installed.
I have typically been using these...
hinged roof anchor 
<https://www.acklandsgrainger.com/AGIPortalWeb/WebSource/ProductDisplay/globalProductDetailDisplay.do?item_code=DBIAJ730A>
or these...
RA15-1/ 
<https://www.millerfallprotection.com/fall-protection-products/roofing-products/temporary-roof-anchors>
Preferably the RA15-1 since it can use screws (#12's) instead of nails and only 
needs 8 screws compared to the 20 nails for the hinged anchor... ***in order 
for it to be approved***

​What are you all using as temporary anchors specifically for asphalt shingle 
roofs​???
Do any of you prefer to install permanent roof anchors, now that you have just 
installed a "serviceable" piece of equipment on the roof?  What do you use?
Benn
