1" Ratchet Straps

1" Ratchet Straps

Whether you're a weekend handyman or working in the cargo control industry, 1" ratchet straps are an essential tool. They work to secure cargo on a pallet, motorcycles on trailers, and everything in between.

Why Choose a 1" Tie Down Strap?

The narrow width of our 1" tie down straps means you'll get a tie down that's lighter in weight and less bulky than traditional 2" straps, but with the same durable construction, wide-ranging options of hardware, hooks, webbing colors, and customization choices.

Light Duty Ratchet Strap Material

All of our 1" ratchet straps and cam straps are manufactured with polyester webbing, which offers high strength, along with water- and UV-resistance.

Since polyester will absorb minimal water, it's less likely to rot, mildew, or stretch under load. The UV-resistance prevents damage from the sun's rays, even with repeated outdoor exposure.

If you need to add extra abrasion-resistance, it's easy to add 1" Cordura wear sleeves to the webbing to provide another layer of protection.

End Fittings

Each small ratchet strap and cam strap is securely stitched around the tensioning device and end fitting. Straps are available with wire hooks, snap hooks, S-hooks, and D-rings, or you can choose an endless strap instead.

Replacement 1" ratchets and cam buckles are also available.

1 Inch Ratchet Strap Strength

Although 1" straps are referred to as light-duty ratchet straps, the polyester webbing offers break strengths ranging from 3,500 to 4,500 lbs. The working load limit will vary by the hardware (ratchet, cam buckle, snap hook, etc.) on the tie down, so check the specifications carefully to ensure you're getting the strength you need for the job.

1 Inch Ratchet Strap Industry Standards

All of our 1" ratchet straps are labeled with their working load limit to meet CVSA guidelines, DOT regulations, and WSTDA and North American Cargo Securement standards.

Common Uses for Small Ratchet Straps:

• Securing bikes, ATVs, and outdoor gear to trailers.
• Tying down toolboxes and generators in pickup beds.
• Bundling moving blankets, light furniture, or small appliances.
• Organizing cargo in vans, SUVs, or on roof racks.

Types of 1" Tie Down Straps

The varied options when it comes to small tie down strap design allow for specialized styles that serve a specific purpose. Explore some of the more popular types below.

Retractable Ratchet Straps

With a retractable 1" ratchet strap, you still have an end fitting to hook into an anchor point and a ratchet to tighten the strap, but you also have a button that automatically retracts the webbing.

Roll-Up Ratchet Straps

Roll-up ratchet straps are an innovative solution to loose ends. It's designed to store any excess webbing on the ratchet, eliminating hassle and wasted time.

1" Motorcycle Straps

1" tie down straps are great for securing motorcycles, ATVs, and more in a trailer. Motorcycle ratchet tie downs generally use S-hooks or J-hooks, and they are made with weather-resistant polyester webbing.

Boat Tie Down Straps

We also have 1" tie down straps and hardware for boats, canoes, and kayaks. Most of these boat tie down straps include a wear pad to protect your boat and other painted equipment from scratches and dings from contact with the tensioning device.

Stainless Steel 1" Tie Down Straps

Another good option for wet environments - not limited to just boats - are our stainless steel ratchet tie down - this is perfect for higher moisture environments, as stainless steel is more corrosion-resistant. With 304 stainless steel hardware, they are perfect for tying down jet skis, snowmobiles and more.

Tree Stand Accessories

If you are looking to secure a tree stand, a tree stand strap is a must-have. These types of straps are strong and durable, and they are available in colors like black or camouflage to blend in.

1" Cambuckle Straps

A cambuckle strap is a different type of tie down strap than a ratchet strap. They still offer you durable webbing, but they are tightened by pulling the strap by hand, so they are great for light-duty applications.
