Introduction

Tie-down straps also known as cargo straps or lashing straps, are essential tools for securing cargo, whether you’re transporting large and heavy cargo or items lighter and more delicate.

Our tie-downs come in various types, lengths, widths, colors, end fittings, tightening mechanisms, and working load limits to accommodate different loads and applications. 

Types of Tie-Down Straps

Ratchet Straps

Ratchet Straps are the most common cargo control straps that are used in the professional trucking industry, especially for enclosed trailer and flatbed use.

Our ratchet straps are made from heavy-quality polyester webbing with a reliable ratcheting mechanism and different end fittings that allow for easy and quick tightening and secure fastening of cargo in minutes.

Cam Buckle Straps

Cam buckle straps are simple and effective tie-downs, they feature a cam buckle mechanism with different tie-down hardware such as S hooks, wire hooks, or E fitting.. They’re easier to use but provide less tension than ratchet straps. They’re perfect for lighter loads and applications requiring quick and frequent adjustments.

Winch Straps

Winch straps are made of heavy-duty polyester webbing with winches or winch bars and heavy-duty hardware fittings (e.g. flat hook, chain hook, D-ring, grab hook, container hook). for unparalleled strength and durability. They are designed to secure large or irregularly shaped load on flatbeds and trailers.

Our winch straps come in yellow color, 2″,  3″, and 4″ sizes, but we also offer customization options such as tailoring the colors to coordinate with your company or vehicle’s colors or making longer or shorter straps to meet your specific application needs.

Car Tie Down Straps

Car tie-down straps also known as auto hauler straps, come in many different configurations to suit great safety and strength for car-hauling applications. We supply wheel nets, lasso straps, wheel tie-downs, tire straps, and axle straps for the auto-hauling industry and transport vehicle companies.
