2" x 18' Ratchet Strap with Flat Hooks | Yellow

2" x 18' Ratchet Strap Tie Down

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.

Quality-Focused Ratchet Strap Construction

Our 2" tie down straps have a longer fixed end than most standard straps, letting you position the ratchet further from the anchor point after wrapping around a rub rail. 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!

Industrial-Grade Webbing

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.

Corrosion-Resistant Ratchet Characteristics

Zinc-coated ratchet component has a long, wide handle and a smooth grip. These features combine to allow for easier strap tensioning.

Benefits of Flat Hook End Hardware

If you are want to connect to either your rub rail or under the edge of your truck / trailer, a flat hook is the right end fitting for you. With a wide contact area to better distribute tie down force, flat hooks are a reliable choice for most loads. They also include a built-in defender to prevent webbing wear and tear and prolong the life of your strap.

10,000 lb. Ratchet Strap Industry Compliance

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.

WSTDA Ratchet Use Guidelines

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."

Additionally, they define design factor as the "ratio of the breaking strength to the working load limit." The design factor is 3:1 for these tie down straps to build in a level of redundancy, accounting for unknown factors to keep you, your crew, and those around you safe.
