Video Transcript for Erickson Ratchet Straps - Standard Strap - EM01326 Review

Speaker 1: Today we're going to take a look at the Erickson ratchet tie down strap with double J hooks. This is going to measure one inch by 25 feet, and it has a safe working load limit of 1,000 pounds.This ratchet strap is going to help to do the work for you by tightening down with that ratchet capability. It is going to be a nice long strap with that 25 foot length. The way this is going to work is that we'll have our strap looped through the slot in the hole there and then as you ratchet down, it just pulls it through. You can also open that up with the release lever so that it'll pull those tabs up and you can actually free spool that strap back out. To release it back, just pull up on the lever in the middle there, it's going to be that handle that springs up, allows you to either open it up or flatten it out.All of our metal portions, the hooks and the ratcheting lever, those are all going to be made of a yellow dichromate plated steel, so it's going to be durable as well as resisting rust.

It's going to have a durable yellow polyester webbing, and as you can see, we have this nice cross stitching at each end, so the hook is going to stay in place, we don't have to worry about that coming undone or fraying or anything like that.Now, as far as the dimensions, again, it is going to be one inch by 25 feet long. The J hook is going to measure about two inches from the end to the end of the hook. The safe working load limit again, is going to be 1,000 pounds, our max load or break strength is going to be 3,000 pounds. This is one strap, but you want to keep in mind that it's always a good idea to have two straps to secure any load that you're working with. And you want to keep in mind that you don't want your cargo to exceed the combined working load limit of the straps being used.

For example, if you're using a strap with a working load limit of 5,000 pounds each to tie down a load weighing 1,000 pounds, then you would need at least two straps to safely secure that load. So it's always recommended that you use these in pairs to make sure that you have everything loaded up safely and securely.That's going to do it for our look at the Erickson ratchet tie down strap with double J hooks.
