When the anchor point is a narrow D-ring or a spot that is hard to reach, a wire hook end gets into places a bulkier hook cannot. This 3 inch ratchet strap carries the working load limit of a standard 4 inch strap while staying lighter and less bulky to handle, and the low-stretch polyester webbing holds a firm tension once the ratchet is cranked down, no guesswork on how hard to pull like you get with a cam buckle.

Each end is finished with a zinc-plated double J-hook style wire hook built to hook into D-rings and other tight anchor points without fighting the connection. The webbing is made from thicker yarn with more picks per inch than typical competitor straps, heat-sealed on the ends so it resists abrasion, tearing, and cutting through repeated use. The ratchet itself carries the same zinc finish as the hooks to keep corrosion at bay on wet or salted job sites.

Key Features

• 3 inch low-stretch polyester webbing matches the working load limit of a standard 4 inch ratchet strap with less bulk
• Wire hook ends reach D-rings and other narrow or hard-to-access anchor points
• Zinc-plated ratchet and wire hooks resist corrosion
• Thicker, higher-pick-count webbing with heat-sealed ends for abrasion and cut resistance
• Meets FMCSA, DOT, CVSA, and WSTDA cargo securement guidelines, built to a 3:1 design factor
• Available in multiple lengths and colors

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.
