This steel backing plate for the E-track or D-ring in your enclosed trailer provides more support than just securing it with wood or metal screws. Bolt the plate to your E-track on the opposite side of the wall or under the floor.
Features:
- Backing plate provides extra support for your E-track or D-ring (sold separately)
- Perfect for use in an enclosed trailer with a thin wall or floor
- Multiple pre-drilled holes make plate compatible with E-tracks, D-rings, and single tie-down anchors
- Galvanized steel construction is strong and corrosion resistant
- Simple, bolt-on installation with included hardware
- Attach plate to E-track or D-ring on the opposite side of the wall or under the floor
- Made in the USA
Specs:
- Quantity: 1 backing plate
- Dimensions: 6" long x 6" wide x 1/8" thick
- 4-Bolt mounting pattern: 4-1/2" x 4"
- Limited lifetime warranty
Note: The included hardware lets you mount your E-track on surfaces up to 2" thick.
This backing plate provides more support for your E-track (sold separately) than only using wood or metal screws. Simply put, it allows the pulling force to be distributed over a greater area. This prevents your mower, ATV, or other heavy object from pulling your E-track away from its mounting surface and tearing up your trailer's wall or floor. It's perfect for trailers with thin walls or floors.
Pre-Drilled Holes
Pre-drilled holes accommodate the standard 4-bolt mounting pattern found on most horizontal or vertical E-tracks. There are also holes to accommodate a D-ring, Snap-Loc, or odd-shaped tie-down anchor.
Simple, Bolt-On Installation
To install, drill pilot holes in your mounting surface. Place your E-track or D-ring where you're mounting it and insert the included bolts. On the opposite side of your wall or floor, place the plate over the bolts and secure them using the included washers and nylon lock nuts.

Great ordering process, communication of the order, shipping, delivery and post-sale follow-up. Will be my first vendor to go to for future trailer related purchases.

Great quality easy to install must have to securing your equipment with etrack

I haven't had a chance to install the product yet, but the packing was in shreds. The boxes had huge holes in them and the parts were easily visible. Some of them were on the verge of falling out.

Well packaged and quickly shipped! Thank you

Arrived in good shape and should be a great way to attach.

They work very well. I have had them installed for a year and am still very pleased with their fit, function, and ability to provide me with a sense of security about the e-tracks in my utility trailer while hauling my motorcycle. I used 3 per 5-foot section and feel much more confident than just screws.
by: Raymond 04/22/2023
These backing plates are an excellent addition for securing etracks to a wood floor. In my case my trailer. They are thicker than expected, the mounting hole arrangement gives flexibility in mounting, and the hardware is a perfect match for etracks. All of this makes installing etracks easier with the confidence your load will be secure. I’ll buy again.

These backing plates were just what I needed to secure Etrack moveable tie-downs to the floor of our new cargo trailer. On "normal" camping outings, they secure my 300-lb. Honda motor scooter, my 200-lb. handicap scooter, & our 75-lb. ice chest to the floor of the trailer, and they and the E-track attached to the inside walls of the trailer have been used to secure various other loads that we have needed to haul. They have now worked well for a year with absolutely no problems.

I have had these installed on my utility trailer for a year. They were easy to install and do an excellent job holding my e-track and 1000 lb bike down. Well worth the price and the peace of mind knowing I am not just relying on some screws.
by: Lyle 12/30/2022
Fast delivery and exactly what I was looking for. Just gathering the materials for transforming my enclosed utility trailer to as bike hauler. Hopefully this will all come together in the next 45 days.

Easy to install and provides e-track support between trailer frame cross members.
by: Alan11/25/2023
Universal fit for several bolt spacings, fits well. Marketing($$)says to buy the 16-pack. I will use a total of just 4 of these and have a dozen left over. No way to return the others, no way to know how many you will need till actually mounting the e-track. I will end up mounting my e-track with mostly bolts through the trailer frame. No need for the back plates. Only options were to buy 1, or 2 or 16!
by: Nicholas 08/09/2023
The backing plates have provided for solid, worry-free attachment of the Erickson E-track to my open cargo trailer. I spanned the gap between two 2x8 deck planks with the track and backing plates in a few places. After several interstate trips, the plates still look good and hold solid.
by: Chris08/06/2023
Definitely worth it, no weak spots or loose areas. I tie anything anywhere along my 16' of black E-Track in my 20' trailer. My only complaint was I had to open every bag and split the contents between the inside (deck side) and the underside crews. It would be great if the hardware was packaged so the deck side guy gets a bag of bolts and the underside guy gets a bag of plates, washers, & nuts.
by: Doug08/31/2023
Good product, but once again (as is the case with most of my orders) your shipping department blew it and didn't pack the order very well. There was ZERO packing material inside the box, so the items blew out the side of the box.
I'm seriously getting tired of complaining about your bad packing jobs, but I keep doing so because no one has fixed the problem yet.
by: Kevin04/17/2024
One bolt came with a round head on it for some reason. Have to replace that one

Makes the E-track in our trailer to tie down our side-by-side sturdy without drilling or screwing into the frame rails.
by: Terry K06/14/2021
These E-tracks installed relatively easily on my new trailer using the available backing plates. Total install of 18' of track took less than 4 hours - a one man job except for the final tightening of the bolts included in the backing plate kit.

- Do the etrailer Horizontal E-Tracks Come With Backing PlatesThe etrailer Horizontal E-Tracks like part # e45VR do not come with a backing plate but you can purchase this separately using the E-Track Backing Plate part # e89RR.
view full answer... - Securing Various Vehicles in Car Hauler Using E-TrackSince the vehicles will be of varying widths and weights, the best way to go would be to run the two parallel lengths so they's be a few inches inboard from the wheels of the narrowest vehicle and use a ratchet/axle strap type setup to secure them. For each vehicle, you'd need 4 e-track anchors, part # 59147 and 4 of the Car Tie-Down kits, part # 08504-05. The kit includes ratchet and axle straps and will work if the individual weight of each vehicle is less than 8000 lbs (which it should...
view full answer... - Recommended E-Track Location For 22 Cargo Trailer Carrying Plastic TotesFor your 22' cargo trailer used to carry plastic totes I recommend installing a few E-track sections on the floor, and a few on the wall roughly the height of the top of the totes. This will allow you the most attachment points to allow you to keep your cargo secure while driving cross country. The # E19148 are a great choice, and to install them on the floor you will also want the E-Track Backing Plate # e89RR to give the track extra support in the areas that there is no frame rail. To...
view full answer... - Using a Track System to Fabricate an Upper Bed in a Mercedes Sprinter VanSince what you are doing is a custom modification, there is not really a clear "should have" to go by. That being said, I can provide some thoughts and insights to help you make a decision. Personally I would go with the CargoSmart Horizontal or Vertical X-Track # 3486500 and the CargoSmart Rotating Board Holder for E-Track and X-Track Systems # 3481740. This will allow you to use less space than installing an entire track along your Sprinter. You would install these on each side across...
view full answer... - D-Rings Tie-Down Anchors For Cargo Area Of 2018 Nissan NV200 Cargo VanYes, the Let's Go Aero D-Ring Tie-Down Anchors # MMP536 can be used on your 2018 Nissan NV200. While these are not a custom fit item the only need to be secured using 3/8" diameter bolts. Depending on where you plan to mount these rings you should consider using a backing plate to strengthen the mounting area. The CargoSmart X-Track Cargo Organizer Pro Bundle # 3481788-P is a great option as well as it give you lots of mounting options with a single track. These would need multiple E-Track...
view full answer... - How Long are the Tracks of the CargoSmart X-Track Cargo Organizer Pro BundleHey Frank, each of the tracks that come with the CargoSmart X-Track Cargo Organizer Pro Bundle - Matte Black - Steel - 667 lbs - 5foot Long # 3481788-P are 5 foot long. How to install it will depend on the application. Wood screws through studs would be a great way that would be very strong. Otherwise we do have a backing plate that would work great with the part # e89RR.
view full answer... - Installing Etrack on Side Walls of Enclosed TrailerI would recommend using self tapping screws that are a length that wouldn't go through your walls completely to secure the e-track like part # E19148. If you can get as many of the screws into the metal framing of the trailer that would be your best option.
view full answer... - Can Galvanized Steel E-Track Install on Galvanized Steel TrailerYou can definitely install the galvanized steel e-track on your trailer that has a galvanized steel floor, as really the only potential issues are when installing e-track on dissimilar metals. So you can absolutely install any of the following e-track without issue: - 3' Long: etrailer Horizontal E-Track - Galvanized Steel # e35VR - 4' Long: etrailer Horizontal E-Track - Galvanized Steel # e95VR - 5' Long: etrailer Horizontal E-Track - Galvanized Steel # e45VR To install the e-track...
view full answer... - How Many Backing Plates Should I Use to Install E-Track on Aluminum Motorcycle TrailerI typically recommend using the etrailer E-Track Backing Plate w/ Hardware - Galvanized Steel - 6" Long x 6" Wide - Qty 1 # e89RR on each end of your E-Track sections # E19148 and one in the middle for added support. With one backing plate on each end and one in the middle it will give you plenty of support to secure your motorcycle. Since this is an aluminum trailer, you'll want to use a coat of paint or some other insulating material to prevent galvanic corrosion that might occur with...
view full answer... - Can E-Track Installed as a Flush MountWe don't have a floor length backing plate for the e-tracks. To do a flush mounted setup you could put a sub-floor in the trailer attach the e-track to that and then install the floor between the e-tracks to give it a flush type setup. With that you could still use the smaller backing plates # e89RR.
view full answer... - Erickson ATV E-Track Tie-Down Kit w/ Ratchet Straps and Wheel Chocks Backing PlateThe Erickson ATV E-Track Tie-Down Kit # EM09160 does not come with a backing plate but you can use the part # e89RR as one. Since this is powder coated you would not have to worry about galvanic corrosion due to dissimilar metals.
