Features of our ratchet strap

The Force brand ratchet straps are crafted from slightly thicker yarn than most competitors offer, and more picks per inch are used to create each strap. This, combined with the heat-sealed end, provides better resistance to abrasions, tears, and cuts, ensuring that your ratchet strap will last longer. The 4" polyester webbing offers superior strength with very little give, making it an excellent choice for securing heavy loads.

The flat hook end fittings are coated with a black powder that not only looks sharp but also adds protection from the elements. The high-quality ratchet assembly features zinc plating for corrosion resistance and includes a long, wide handle for easy gripping and fast tensioning.

Industry standards compliance

All Force brand ratchet straps are labeled and stenciled with break strength and work load limit information to comply with FMCSA and DOT regulations, CVSA and WSTDA guidelines, and North American Cargo Security standards. This ensures that you can trust our products to keep your cargo safe and compliant with industry regulations.

Why choose the flat-hook end of the hardware?

Flat hooks are a reliable choice for most loads due to their wide contact area, which helps to better distribute the tying force. They also include a built-in guard to prevent webbing wear and tear, extending the life of your strap. However, if you do not have a railing to clamp onto, or if your anchoring space is limited, a flat hook may not be the best choice for your needs.

Custom ratchet straps are available

Looking for a specific length, color, or hardware combination that you have not seen on our website? Or would you like the strap to be stenciled with your company name or logo? We offer custom tie-down straps to meet your unique needs.

Ratchet usage guidelines and safety information

According to the WSTDA, when using a web tie-down with a winch or ratchet, a minimum of two and a maximum of four wraps of webbing should be wound on the winch or ratchet lever. 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. In addition, the design factor, which is the ratio of break strength to operating load limit, should be 3:1 for these tie-down straps to ensure safety and redundancy.

Complete the complete cargo security system

In addition to our ratchet straps, we offer a full range of cargo safety supplies including strap protectors, D-rings, horn protectors, and more. As an alternative tie-down solution, we also provide transport chains and binders. Trust Force brand products for all your cargo control needs.
