Product Information

Full details

This Rolson Ratchet Tie Down is designed for users who need a secure and reliable way to secure loads during transport or storage. Its key benefit is the ratchet mechanism that provides strong, adjustable tension with minimal effort. A potential caveat is the 300lb load capacity, which may not be sufficient for extremely heavy items. The tie-down features a 25mm wide polypropylene webbing, a 4.5m maximum extended length, steel hooks, and an automatic locking ratchet with a quick-release tensioner.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum load this tie-down can safely secure?

The maximum load capacity is 300lb (approximately 136kg). Always ensure your load is well within this limit for safety.

How long is the webbing strap?

The maximum extended length of the webbing strap is 4.5 meters (approximately 14.7 feet).

How do I release the tension on the strap?

Press the push-button quick release located on the ratchet handle. This will disengage the locking mechanism, allowing you to loosen the strap.

What is the lashing capacity?

The lashing capacity is 40kg, which refers to the downward force the strap can exert to prevent movement.

Can I use this for securing very heavy machinery?

No, the 300lb load capacity is suitable for medium-duty loads. For very heavy machinery, you would need a tie-down with a significantly higher load rating.

What is the breaking strain of the strap?

The breaking strain is 120kg. This is the point at which the strap is likely to fail, and it should never be used close to this limit.

Are the hooks made of steel?

Yes, the tie-down features strong steel hooks for reliable attachment.

Troubleshooting

Ratchet mechanism is difficult to engage

Ensure the webbing is not tangled or obstructed within the ratchet mechanism. Check for debris and clean if necessary. Make sure the handle is being pumped correctly.

Strap does not hold tension

Verify that the automatic locking mechanism has engaged fully. Check that the webbing is properly threaded through the ratchet. Inspect for any damage to the webbing or ratchet teeth.

Hooks do not attach securely

Ensure you are using appropriate, sturdy anchor points. The hooks are designed for loops or bars; they may not securely attach to thin edges or smooth surfaces.

Webbing is frayed or damaged

Cease using the tie-down immediately. Damaged webbing compromises safety and load security. Replace the tie-down.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Easy to use ratchet mechanism for secure tensioning.
  • Durable construction with polypropylene webbing and steel hooks.
  • Quick release button simplifies unfastening.
  • Automatic locking feature enhances safety.
  • Versatile length for various applications.

Cons

  • Load capacity of 300lb may be insufficient for very heavy items.
  • Breaking strain of 120kg means it should not be used for loads exceeding this significantly.
  • Webbing width of 25mm might be less robust than wider straps for extreme loads.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Extend the webbing to the desired length, ensuring it is not twisted.
  2. Attach the steel hooks to secure anchor points on your vehicle, trailer, or load.
  3. Engage the ratchet mechanism by repeatedly pumping the handle until the webbing is taut and the load is secure.
  4. Ensure the automatic locking mechanism has engaged.

Compatibility:

This tie-down is compatible with any sturdy anchor points that can accommodate the steel hooks. It is suitable for securing a wide range of items, including furniture, equipment, and outdoor gear, provided the load does not exceed the specified capacity.

Care:

  • Inspect the webbing and hooks for wear or damage before each use.
  • Clean the webbing with a damp cloth if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals.
  • Store the tie-down in a dry place when not in use to prevent corrosion of the metal parts.
  • Do not exceed the 300lb (approx. 136kg) load capacity or 40kg lashing capacity.
