What are Ratchet Straps?

Ratchet straps are cargo straps or load straps that use a ratchet as the tensioning mechanism, and the ratchet significantly reduces the force required to tighten your straps, making it easier to apply the right amount of tension to secure your load. 

Our ratchet straps come in various types, lengths, widths, and working load limits (WLL) and break strength to meet different safe transport loads and requirements.

Material

Our ratchet straps are typically made of heavy-duty polyester tie-down webbing material, known for their low stretch and high tensile strength, abrasion resistance, and durability in various weather conditions. And we can customize cargo straps that use additional layers of safety for extra strength and protection.

Weight Capacity

Ratchet tie-down straps are rated for specific weight capacities and have labels with working load limits they can safely secure. You may face huge fines for not having a visible label with a marked working load limit and breaking strength. 

Width

Ratchet straps come in widths ranging from 1 inch to 4 inches, the wider the more strength and stability. Our ratchet tie-down straps are available in many lengths, Common lengths include 10, 15, and 20 feet, but custom lengths are available for your specific cargo securement application. 

1 inch ratchet straps are great for light-duty applications, especially found on ATVs, UTVs, Motorcycles,  and the back of trucks or trailers.

2-inch ratchet straps are the most popular size, they are commonly used in handling almost the tie down applications such as car vehicle hauling, in the back of a pickup truck and trailers. 

3 inch ratchet straps are more substantial and designed for many of the heaviest applications and mainly used only for flatbed trucking applications for professional truck drivers.

4″ ratchet straps are the most durable heavy-duty trailer straps, they are most commonly used on flatbed trailers and preferred by most professional truck drivers due to their superior strength and durability, making them the top choice for trucking fleets.

End Fittings

The one thing you will want to keep in mind when selecting the ratchet straps is the end fitting which is just as important as the strap width. it can affect the working load limit (WLL), so choose the hardware that fits your straps. We have flat hooks, wire hooks, chain extensions, S-hooks, and snap hooks, and also have customization options
