  • What Are Your Longest Retractable Ratchet Straps?
  • Currently the Retractable Ratchet Strap # Q74FR is our longest at 27' long. This does use 2 flat hooks on each side of the ratchet and is rated for a safe working load of 3,300lbs per strap. If you are looking for a more traditional ratchet strap the Strap # Q54FR has the smaller S-hooks on the ends of the strap. These are 12' straps with a 1" wide webbing having a safe working load of 500lbs.

  • Is There an Alternate Replacement Style Other Than the Replacement HideAway Cradle Ratchet Straps
  • No, unfortunately there is not an alternate replacement strap option other than the Replacement HideAway Cradle Ratchet Straps for Thule Bike Racks # TH536. The Replacement HideAway Cradle Ratchet Straps for Thule Bike Racks # TH536 works with the Helium Pro (TH9042PRO and TH9043PRO), Apex XT (TH9024XT, TH9025XT, and TH9026XT), Camber (TH9056 and TH9058), and Range (TH9057). If you have a different rack, let me know because the correct replacements may be different in that case.

  • Tow Dolly Ratcheting Strap to Replace Cables That Secure Vehicle
  • We do offer ratcheting tie down kits such as the Bulldog # BDW20230 but these do not bolt-down; they have hooks on each end of the four included no-stretch, high-strength polyester straps. The straps have built-in adjustable loops for wrapping axles. We also offer them individually as part # BDW20229. These are usually used with tie-down anchors like # RR5K. Your dolly may allow use of these axle straps to avoid the concern about tire damage. It would be a good idea to check with the...

  • Availability of 8 Foot Long Tie-Down Strap to Use on a Tarp
  • To use a rubber strap you would need to attach 2 or 3 straps, like the Erickson Rubber Tarp Strap, part # EM06741, together to be able to reach that length. I do not have a single rubber tarp strap that will stretch to 8 feet. I do offer tie-down straps and ratchet straps that would be able to give you the 8 foot distance you need. A few examples would be the Erickson Retractable, Ratcheting Tie-Down Straps, part # EM34417, that is 9 foot long. Also, have three choices in the 10 foot length...

  • Ratcheting Straps and Rack Parts for Open Utility Trailer
  • We do offer a range of trailer cargo control items but many of these are intended for enclosed utility trailers, such as roof rack # RA-28 from Fitz-All. We also offer cargo organizers for open utility trailers like yours, but these generally are not of the particular dimensions you mentioned. For your specific 12-foot rack needs you might be better off locally sourcing components. But we can help you with 20-foot ratcheting straps. Erickson offers # EM58629 which is a yellow Ratchet Tie-Down...

  • Is The etrailer Ratchet Strap with Snap Hooks Available in a Length Less Than 20'?
  • We have the etrailer Ratchet Strap with Snap Hooks # e54BR which is 10' versus the Strap # e34BR you found which is 20'. Both of these have a 10,000lb break strength. If you are needing longer than 10' you can always cut the 20' strap down to the length you need and melt the cut end of the polyester strap to prevent fraying.

  • Availability of a 10 Foot Ratcheting Tie Down Strap
  • We do have a similar ratcheting tie down strap available that is 10 feet long. That is the longest retractable strap we carry. Take a look at the Erickson Tie Down, # EM34416. It is a 2 inch by 10 foot strap and it has a 1,100 pound capacity. I have included a link to a video review of the strap for you. If you don't need a retractable strap, then the ProGrip Ratchet straps # 317-340720 are a great option that are 15 feet long.

  • Will Hooks of Ratchet Tie Down Straps # ETBMB-05852 Fit On Rails of Reese Cargo Carrier # 63153
  • Yes, the hooks of the Ratchet Tie Down Straps # ETBMB-05852 that you referenced will easily fit the rails of the 24x60 Reese Cargo Carrier # 63153. These straps would do a great job securing cargo on this carrier. This is a set of 4 ratchet straps with each having a safe working load limit of 830 lbs.

  • Is there a 10 Foot Long by 2 Inch Wide Retractable Ratchet Strap
  • For a 10 foot by 2 inch strap we have the Erickson Retractable Ratchet Strap, # EM34416. It has a 1,100 pound capacity for each strap but it is not a bolt on strap. It can be bolted on if desired as the base does have that capability but then you'd lose about a foot of length from that small strap with hook.

  • Availability of Erickson Car Tie-Down Straps With Ratchet
  • We do have a car tie-down kit from Erickson that is very similar to the one you referenced, though the Erickson Tie-Down with the Multiplier Ratchet and Swivel Hook is no longer available. Instead, I recommend the Erickson Car Tie-Down Kit with Ratchet # 08504-05, which like the kit you mentioned, is 7 feet long, has 2 inch wide axle straps and a 10,000 lb break strength. Each also has a 3,300 lb safe working load limit which will affect how many straps you need. For example if the car...

  • Do the ShockStrap Shock Absorbing Tie-Down Straps Come in a Retractable Style?
  • The ShockStrap Ratcheting Tie-Down Straps w Built-in Shock Absorbers - 1-1/2" x 7' - 1K - Qty 2 # 297-7RSDB are not available in the retractable style. This is simply because the shock absorbing element wouldn't be able to be retracted to the spring loaded coil. The manufacturer doesn't make a semi-retractable option at this time. If you would like a retractable strap instead of the shock absorber, then I recommend the Erickson Re-Tractable Ratchet Straps w/ Push Button Releases -...

  • Availability of a Light-Duty Hand Winch for Use in a Cargo Application
  • We do offer lower capacity hand winches that are like the 600-lb-rated Fulton Single Speed Winch FT6000301 that you referenced. Dutton-Lainson offers their single-speed hand winch # DL16003 that includes a 12-foot strap with hook, a handle, and a Tuffplate zinc finish for protection from corrosion. This winch is rated for 400-lbs. An article on winches is linked for reference. If your application is to secure cargo, you will be better served by a few sets of ratcheting tie down straps,...

  • Looking for Yellow Ratchet Straps
  • We do have some ratchet straps that come in yellow: # EM58501 (This is the same style as the other strap you referenced but is a 2 inch by 30 foot and rated for 3,300 pounds) # EM69627 # EM34410 # 802HD-27F # 58510 # EM52400 # 58514 # EM58500 # EM58511 Tie-down straps must be chosen according to their safe working load limit (WLL).

  • Replacement Rubber Straps Compatible with Fat Bikes for use on a Thule Bike Rack
  • I have a solution for you, but unfortunately there are no rubber straps longer than the 8-3/4" long Thule Replacement Straps for Cradles # TH534. The reason for this is that none of the racks like the Thule Apex that use these straps, are truly designed to carry a fat bike. Depending on which bike rack you have, you may be able to use the Replacement HideAway Cradle Ratchet Straps for Thule Bike Racks # TH536, which are ratcheting straps that are compatible with the Hideaway cradles...

  • Car Tie Down Ratchet Straps for Hauling Vintage Model T and Model A on 23 Foot Car Hauler
  • I looked over the various tie down options, and wasn't able to find anything that met all the parameters you mentioned. The Erickson # 08504-05 you mentioned comes the closest, but we don't have anything that has a longer strap. If you can live with S hooks, you could use the # 58505 axle strap along with the 2 x 27 10K ratchet strap, part # EM69627. You can always shorten the strap if need be. Fulton offers a 20 foot by 2 inch winch strap with a 10K capacity, part # FWS20HD0200.
