Hi everyone. It's Evangeline here at Etrailer. And today we'll be taking a look at our totally quick job ratchet rope tie down here at Etrailer. So this is a quick draw tie down, which means it has the ratchet wreck mechanism. And it also has kind of this carabiner hook. So this is a great replacement part.
if you have the Tooley water sport or roof mounted accessory that uses this, or is included already, or, if you don't have this with your kit you usually just have the hook and you want to upgrade. This is the way to go. This does not include the rope. If you do not have the rope, you can find that here at Etrailer, with the way to use this quick draw mechanism is you feed the rope right over here at the bottom of the mechanism where it says feed rope. So that goes right there in the corner.
Just want to get it into place just barely. Then you start rotating this mechanism. So rotate it counter-clockwise until that rope comes out at the bottom. So grab that piece and then continue pulling it down. And then in order to release that rope or that tension, there's this lever right over here.
So push up on that lever, and then pull that rope out. And once you have that rope fed through you just going to attach that carabiner really quickly to your kayak or your boat. So just like that, you now have a bow or stern tie down rope. And once everything is connected and your bottom hook is also anchored, don't forget to use this ratchet mechanism to get that tension there and then just tie up the excess strap. And that's pretty much it.
So with 150 pound max load capacity, I think this makes it a lot easier to tie down your balance steering straps. You don't have to feed it in through the hook that like what we have on our kayak. We just attach that carabiner. We use that ratchet mechanism to give ourselves some tension and then we're ready to go onto the road. So if you don't already have this with your Tooley water sport carriers, I recommend adding this, but if you did break or damage your current one, then that's perfectly fine since it is a direct replacement and you don't have to worry about if it fits or not. And that was a look here at our Tooley quick draw ratchet rope tie down here at Etrailer..

Replace the ratchet and carabiner for your Thule carrier that uses a Quick Draw ratchet-rope tie down (TH855XT).
It works perfectly for my application. A good quality paracord 550 fits, some may slip if too slick. Consider 660 paracord for heavier applications. The ratchet is strong and reliable. etrailer is excellent. Easy ordering process, fast shipping excellent support.
These work great. I've been carrying kayaks on trailers/cartops for over 10 years. Tying the ends have always taken a long time even with clever knots. These gizmos are huge timesavers. They are well-built and do the job well.
The rachet is perfect for what it is intended - helping secure my kayak to my vehicle. The service from etrailer.com was simply outstanding. When my package arrived from the USPS opened and the product missing, etrailer.com immediately shipped out another complete order at no cost. Great service. I will be doing business with them again.
Great replacement for my kayak bow tie downs. Caribeaner seems safer than the hook on my old one. etrailer was helpful, and timely delivery
These are excellent. I use them to tie down things in my landscape trailer and they are very durable. I also use them as an anchor pulley on my cataraft.
The product is great but the customer service is even better. Due to a delivery problem (misdelivery by USPS) over which etrailer had no control, I had the opportunity to work with the customer service team. They were simply amazing - responsive, eager to solve the problem, and committed until it was addressed. The customer service would make me return to this service for other much more costly products. They are fantastic. Really impressive company.
Product is an improvement over former Thule ratchets that used hook instead of carabiner attachment. Ordering was easy, price was fair, and delivery very prompt with fair shipping charges rather than padding their bottom line.
These ratchet w/carabiners are a high quality product. I use them to tie down kayaks on my truck.
Excellent product to make your own custom rope ratchet assemblies. Easy to use and hold well.
Product works great. I wish these were included with the hull a port, but glad I have the final piece to secure the rig. Shipping was fast and easy. Will definitely use this company again.
I am not good at tying knots , so that is why I use the ratchet w/carabiner works great for me.
Very happy with prices and service! Ordered and received in less than a week and product was exactly as advertised. I would definitely recommend etrailer.
Item arrived quickly in perfect condition. Easy to assemble. I will use etrailer again!

It is perfect and I have sent several people to you to buy Thule items for SUP carrying. You are consistently less expensive than the stores in town. And my friends want to save some cash. So keep up the good service and products and Ill keep sending folks your way.
