AUGO Ratchet Tie Down Straps 4pk | 2,200 LB Break Strength

AUGO Ratchet Tie Down Straps 4pk | 2,200 LB Break Strength

Description

I recently purchased the AUGO Ratchet Tie Down Straps and I must say, I am extremely impressed with their quality and performance. These straps are perfect for securely tying down a variety of small and large objects such as motorcycles, canoes, kayaks, ATVs, boxes, boats, furniture, lawn equipment, heavy machinery, and other cargo. Whether you are transporting your items via truck bed, trailer, or roof rack, you can have complete confidence in the durability and dependability of these straps.

One of the standout features of these straps is their formidable 2,200 pound break strength. They are constructed with high-quality material and extra stitching, ensuring indestructible performance even when maneuvering loads amidst harsh wind and excessive motion. The official load capacity is 733 lbs per ratchet, but trust me when I say that these straps are even stronger than that!

When it comes to securing your belongings, the AUGO Ratchet Tie Down Straps have got you covered. They feature secure 'S' hooks with a safety lock, preventing any damage to your tools or vehicle surfaces. The premium S hooks are rubber coated to prevent chipped paint, marks, and dents. The easy-grip ratcheting mechanisms provide excellent control, comfort, and grasp, making it a breeze to secure your items.

What sets these straps apart is the quick-release latch for fast fastening. The 1' flexible webbing adapts and locks into place instantly, allowing for quick and easy use. When you're ready to unload, simply pull the black spring-loaded handles for a smooth and speedy release. This makes these straps a great choice for movers, landscapers, boaters, extreme sport hobbyists, camp enthusiasts, construction workers, tree removal professionals, and those involved in towing.

Additionally, the AUGO Ratchet Tie Down Straps come with some handy accessories. The package includes 2 bungee cords for securing tools, accessories, and other loose gear during travel. There are also 4 soft loops included, which are perfect for anchor points where hooks won't work. These loops prevent scratches, chipped paint, and dents. Furthermore, the straps come with a convenient storage bag that fits discreetly in your car trunk, pickup truck bed, work van, trailer, or RV.

Now, let's address some frequently asked questions:

Q: How wide are the straps? A: The straps are 1 inch wide.

Q: Does anyone know if these would work to tie down a Yeti cooler to a truck bed? A: Yes, that should be possible if your truck bed has anchors to hook onto on the floor of your truck bed. Here is an easy way to use them: [YouTube tutorial link]

Q: Would these be appropriate for securing a 24 ft extension ladder to the roof rack of an SUV? A: Yes, they should work well. I believe they can hold up to 500 lbs. Just make sure you tie the ladder to the front bumper as an added precaution.

Q: Would this work with a wheelchair van to stabilize the chair when traveling? A: The strap portion is fairly long. You could probably trim that down if needed, but it still requires a bit of ratcheting to get it tight. If you have to thread it through a portion of the chair, then thread it into the ratchet mechanism, and crank it a bit to get it just right, it should work for stabilizing the chair during travel.
