Key features
- 1 inch wide, 6 foot long strap
- Ratchet tie-down
- Extra stitching is designed for added strength
- Intended for motorcycles, ATVs, watercraft and light equipment
- Not for use as a tow strap
- Universal fit for tie-down use
Choosing a strap for the load
Tie-down straps hold a load against its anchor points with tension, so the strap is only one part of the job. Before tightening, position the load low and centered, and use anchor points that are rated for the weight they carry. A strap pulled across a sharp edge can cut quickly, so add padding where it bends.
Ratchet straps need a steady check. Vibration and road bumps can loosen them, so stop after the first few miles, re-tension the strap and make sure the ratchet handle is locked. Keep the ratchet clear of the load so it does not rub paint or hit the hitch.
Store the strap dry and coiled loosely out of the sun. UV and moisture weaken webbing over time, so a strap that has been left outside through many seasons should be inspected more closely.
- Inspect for cuts, fraying and worn stitching
- Re-check tension after the first few miles
- Use padding over sharp edges
