Tie Down Straps for Commercial Trucks
Posted on Tuesday, August 3rd, 2010 at 2:16 pmWhen people talk about truck tie downs, they probably are talking about totally different things depends on the context, for instance, ratchet straps for truck are definitely 2” and 10000lbs tie down while ratchets for pick up will be 1” and 500lbs tie down, we’re only going to discuss about truck tie downs here, more specifically, we are going to talk about flat bed truck this time, because we can see those tie downs on the highway,
So many different loads can be put on flat beds, the choice of tie downs will be really complicated, they will need quite some different tie down devices to get the job done, such as e track straps for box truck . When it comes to flatbeds , the first thing comes up will be the truck winches, you can see those flatbeds with truck winches at one side on the highway all the time, with those winches it’s easy for the driver to tie down loads with just winch straps with the help of winch bar.
New flatbeds usually will have truck winches installed, this is a big plus for hauling stuff can be secured by winch straps . When you work with truck winches and winch straps, there is one thing you can’t live without: winch bars, these steel bars are indispensable for your job, so get one if you don’t already have one.
Some flat beds come with winches installed, not all flat beds have winches installed. Winch straps with winches on the flatbed can be used to secure pallets, machinery, steel coils, concrete pipes etc., with 5400lbs working load limit and the protection of plastic corner protectors these winch straps can tie down almost anything threw at them. Winch straps usually come with flat hooks, since we usually hook the straps on the edge of the trailer, of course the wire hook can be used too. For most flatbeds there are 2” and 4” truck winches , but winch straps have width of 2”, 3” and 4”, it’s obvious you can put 3” winch straps in 4” winches, even the width availability of winch straps is limited, the length is not, though there are usually no winch straps shorter than 20′, these straps can be more than 60 feet long! And the best selling length is 27′ and 30′, 4” wide.
No doubt there are most popular tie downs: ratchet strap. In fact that the ratchet straps are just the assembly of ratchet buckles and tie down webbing, which can be nylon or polyester, the combination of different ratchet buckles and different straps gives us many choices.
The ratchet tie down earned it’s popularity by being the most flexible, adaptable and capable tie down equipment , from sedans to commercial trucks , you can see ratchet straps anywhere cargo needs to be secured. With flat hooks, wire hooks, cloth loops, chain anchors, even endless, ratchets just can’t have enough variety, how can we don’t love these ratchets? The smallest width for ratchets is 1”, 4” is the widest, while the length of ratchets may be anything from inches to more than 60 feet. Even for flatbeds which use winch straps primarily the ratchets may be essential, just think about this scenario, while you’re on the way to deliver your load one of the winches comes off, and it’s midnight it’s impossible to find a new or used winch, you will have to use ratchet strap to fix the problem.
Before you get out or visit the web to get these tie down straps , you will have to know how to get most out of them with less money , top priority is the quality , maybe you know the local store stuff quality, but for websites you should evaluate them by reading other people’s the reviews, trucking blogs, such as trucker blogs , online feed backs, or by some other venues to decide if the products and service are good or not.
