2" x 16' Ratchet Strap Tie Down with Strap Protection

2 inch ratchet straps are a staple in the transportation industry and are most commonly used to tie down scissor lifts, cars, motorcycles, and other equipment / vehicles due to the shorter length and flat snap hook hardware. The wear pads add additional protection for both your cargo and your strap.

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:

• Industrial-Grade Webbing: Webbing is thicker than most competitors, with more picks per inch.
  
• Superior Abrasion-Resistance: Heat-sealed ends provide better resistance to abrasion, tearing, and cutting.
• Two Wear Pads Included: Protect your cargo and strap by positioning the two wear pads at the points where the strap meets your load.
• Heavy-Duty Flat Snap Hooks: Perfect for connecting with axle straps with D-rings, as well as E-track and L-track when combined with a fitting that has an O-ring or pear link.
• Captivated End: Prevents strap separation and the hassle of rethreading the strap through the ratchet.
• Corrosion-Resistant Hardware: Flat snap hook and ratchet are zinc-plated.
• Designed for Fast Tensioning: The ratchet has a short, wide handle - easy to grip for fast tensioning.
• Industry-Compliant: This 2 inch strap is tagged and stenciled with break strength and 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.

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.
