RS PRO 8.5 ± 0.5mm Clawhook Ratchet Strap, 50mm Wide, 5000kg Breaking Strain

Introducing the RS PRO Ratchet Strap, an ideal solution for a variety of load-bearing applications. Straps like this are suitable for holding down pallets on trailers or lorries or securing vehicles or loads on the back of transporters. The polyester strap offers a high resistance to abrasion, making them ideal for use in medium to heavy duty applications, while the hooks are able to securely hold the strap in place while it’s under tension.

A ratchet strap is a tie-down strap which has been designed to securely contain and tie goods or equipment. Using a ratchet, they are tightened and strapped down to create a secure and reliable fastening on the target. Ratchet straps are commonly used as tie-down fittings within the following applications:

• Pallets carrying heavy-duty goods


• Steel beams or wooden logs


• Crates of equipment or goods ready for travel


• Transporting vehicles

These strappings are load bearing fasteners, meaning they are able to hold down heavy goods on the backs of trailers or on pallets. A ratchet is then used to tighten down the webbing or strap. These particular straps use a claw hook, meaning a claw shape hook wraps around the end buckle to grasp a strong connection.
