Speaker 1: Today we're going to taking a look at the Erickson heavy duty tie down straps, part number EM06741. These extra long heavy duty tie down straps are great for loads that you don't want to have too much flexibility in your cord. They have limited stretchiness, and remain taut, which is great for heavy loads in your truck, trailer, or cargo basket. There are S-hooks on each end, which are held in place with the rubber grommet.They measure 40-1/2 inches, from rubber end to rubber end, and 45 inches from the end of each S-hook. It's made of a durable EPDM synthetic rubber, that stretches to a maximum length of 56 inches. Its thickness is designed for heavy duty applications.
The S-shape hooks are great for various types of tie down points. These come in a quantity of one, but more can be found here at etrailer.com to fit all of your tarp and tie down needs.If you're on our site, and you're trying to choose between a tie down strap versus a bungee cord, an example of a bungee cord is Erickson part number EM06623. There are going to be a few differences between these. This tie down strap is going to have a higher holding power than a bungee cord. Because the tie down strap is stronger, it is going to have less stretchability than a bungee cord.A tie down strap will usually only have an open end S-hook, whereas a bungee cord can have various ends, such as open hooks, safety hooks, carabiners, and closed hooks.
Bungee cord ends will not be able to be removed, while a tie down strap hook can be removed and replaced if damaged. If you're comparing this to other tie down straps, this is going to be a good option. It'll hold up to the standards of others.Another tie down strap option is the Pewag, part number PW96. The main difference will be the length. The Erickson is the longest one, at 44-1/2 inches, whereas the Pewag is only 15 inches.
You need to choose the best one for your application as tension is the most important part of keeping your load secure.And that completes our look at the Erickson heavy duty tie down straps.

This sturdy strap helps tie down a tarp over your truck bed or trailer. Synthetic rubber stretches for a good fit, and S-hooks at either end attach to the tarp and to an anchor point on your truck or trailer.I needed a couple of these straps longer than the standard 36" straps sold at hardware stores. ETrailer had the straps in stock, shipped immediately, and sent excellent email communication regarding my order.
For you musicians out there, you'll understand what I'm referring to. Pictured is a power amp sitting on top of a bass speaker cabinet. Both have smooth surfaces. At a fairly high volume, those low bass frequencies.create quite a bit of vibration. Due to the vibration, that bass power amp tends to want to "walk" eventually to the point of falling off of the cabinet, that is if I don't catch it in time. The fastest and easiest way of securing the power amp to the cabinet is with this strap. The strap is performing just as I had hoped.
There, another new use for a tie down strap!
FYI -- I attempted to purchase a tie down strap locally at this length but the three hardware stores I visited only offered them in shorter lengths. They did not offer them in the 41 inch length your company has available. Their loss was your gain.
Arrived quickly, great service.
Sorry i am late getting back to you, i did open the box and everything looks great however i think i did an overkill on the tie downs but i will be able to tie down anything that i would ever need to
Well made tie down straps at a reasonable price - impossible to find at local stores in the 41" length. Had them in my hands 3 days after ordering (paid for 3-day shipping).
I am traveling and strapped for time but I can tell you, I am always happy with you guys, your products and most of all your service.
thank you.
Still working in the sun. Has a few cracks beginning to show, but still elastic

Interesting use of a bungee. That is a Peavey bass amp and looks to be one of their cabs. Another hometown St. Louis Area company. Rock on!
