2 inch ratchet straps are a staple in the transportation industry - the polyester straps are rugged yet soft to protect your cargo, and the ratcheting mechanism makes it simple to achieve a tight, secure hold. They are incredibly versatile, filling the gap between lightweight 1" straps and heavy-duty 4" straps. The polyester webbing offers superior strength with very little give, along with UV- and water-resistance. And, unlike cam straps, ratchets don't rely solely on operator strength, so you can add the perfect amount of tension to the strap.
Our 2" tie down straps have a longer fixed end than most standard straps, positioning the ratchet further from the anchor point for better access. They also have a sewn loop built-in next to the ratchet for extra webbing - simply wrap up the excess strap and tuck it into the loop!
The yarn used to make our webbing is slightly thicker than that offered by most competitors, with more picks per inch used to create each strap. It's also heat-sealed on the end. Together, these features provide better resistance to abrasion, tearing, and cutting, so your ratchet straps will last longer.
Zinc-coated ratchet component has a long, wide handle and a smooth grip. These features combine to allow for easier strap tensioning.
Wire hooks or double-J hooks are stronger and more durable than standard S-hooks. They are a versatile securement option and can even be used in applications where anchor point space is tight or the connection is harder to reach. They can easily attach to D-rings and other narrow anchor points, and include a protective zinc coating for corrosion-resistance.
All of our ratchet straps are tagged and stenciled with the working load limit to meet FMCSA and DOT regulations, CVSA and WSTDA guidelines, and North American Cargo Securement standards.
Learn more about proper load handling and securement in the WSTDA safety bulletins.
Looking for a combination of length, color, hardware you don't see on the website? Want straps stenciled with your company name or logo? We also offer custom tie down straps. We can create the ideal strap for your application at our Iowa manufacturing facility - this not only allows us to hold all of our straps to the same high quality standards, but it also means fast shipping to you!
According to the WSTDA (section 4.6.8): "When using web tie downs with a winch or ratchet, a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 4 wraps of webbing shall be wound on the winch or ratchet mandrel. Excessive wraps of webbing on the mandrel may reduce the working load limit (WLL) of the web tie down and may interfere with proper operation."
According to the WSTDA, design factor is the "ratio of the breaking strength to the working load limit" and should be 3:1 for these tie down straps. This builds in a level of redundancy to account for unknown factors, keeping you, your crew, and those around you safe.
Complete your tie down system with strap protection, D-rings, corner protectors, and more. We also offer transport chains and binders as an alternative tie-down solution, as well as an ergonomic Good-N-Tight ratchet strap tightening handle.
California Residents: WARNING
would have liked to have the opportunity for a 40ft
Thank you for taking a moment to provide a review. We do our best to provide a balance of strap styles and lengths that are standard within the industry and of frequent sales volume.
To help your current need, you can cut the strap to a shorter length and singe the end of the strap to avoid fraying.
YES, they work as designed, and we're very happy to finally find these cargo straps long enough to work w/ our hay trailer!
We could only find 27-30 foot straps. We have an 18 ft flat trailer we haul round bales of hay on. With 8 or 9 bales 30 foot straps were to short. Ordered your 50 ft straps for my husband and he loves them. We have plenty of strap with a lot left over. Would recommend to friends.
