What is a ratchet strap? Manufactured from quality hard wearing polyester webbing, fitted to a heavy duty ratchet to make up a standard two part ratchet strap system – The long webbing part usually has a claw hook or J hook sewn to one end , and the ratchet also has a small webbing section with another J Hook or Claw hook fitted to it – The Claw end fittings are great for hooking into the lashing point on a flatbed lorry of the lashing points inside a container. 

 What are Ratchet Straps Used For? To delivery anything large within the UK, before it starts its journey, it must be safe and secure on or in the vehicle it is being transported on or in. this prevents loads falling off the back of a lorry. From hay bales on the back of farming lorry to steelwork to make a new house they need to be secure before it starts its trip. Therefore, if you are travelling a long a motorway and you pass a lorry carrying a large heavy structure you will see it is either secured down by webbing load restraint equipment which is usually a orange or blue ratchet strap, or its secured down via lashing chains. This section is just discussing ratchet straps.

Then there is the 35mm wide range. The most common ratchet strap is 50mm wide ratchet straps and lastly there is the heavy duty 75mm ratchet straps.
