AJ: What's up everybody, it's AJ with etrailer.com. Today we're going to be checking out a Fulton heavy-duty winch strap on our boat trailer here. Now when you buy a winch, sadly, it comes with a normal, basic winch strap, that's probably not going to be heavy-duty enough to hold up to what you need it for, such as this big boat today. We replaced the strap on here that was already fraying and damaged from the sun, because we needed something that was way more heavy-duty, and I think this strap is going to do it. Let's check it out.Looking at the strap side by side, you can already see the difference. Not only is this one been on there a little longer, it's a little more damaged, but this one's already thicker, and it seems just like a more heavy-duty material compared to the seatbelt style strap we have here.
You see some of the threads came out on this one, prompted it to start ripping. This one, if you can see the design here, there's a lot more zigzags. It feels like it's going to be more reinforced overall. So I don't think you're going to have this ripping up problem on this strap.You come in the front and look at the hook, the hook is thicker here at the front and top too, and not to mention this gate here works just fine. This one, it's been worn out.
It moves, but it just stays where you push it, and that's not helpful when you're trying to keep it hooked onto the boat. With the hook side by side, I also want to point out that this one is zinc plated. So it's going to not end up like this one over time. It's going to stay and keep its finish and not rust and corrode. The strap itself is 20' long by 2".
It also has a safe working load limit of 4,000 pounds and a break point limit of 10,000 pounds. And what that means is, when they we're testing it, it seemed to break around 10,000 pounds. It's going to give you plenty of strength for whatever you're hauling.It's definitely time to get this one off the winch and install the new one. So I'm going to back out the strap so I can get to the hardware. It looks like when they installed this one, they ran it through the holes here on the side to keep in place.
So I'm going to try and work those out. Another option you have is you could just cut it and move on. We're going to try and get all this old strap out.Now ready to install our new strap. You see the loop here, we're going to run the bolt through this side of the winch, through this loop and to the other side. Now it doesn't come with hardware, so you're going to need to have your own. Now I'm going to add the nut to the other side. Just going to get a couple of turns with a wrench. With our nut tightened down on this side, we're ready to go ahead and crank in the strap. We're going to go ahead and attach our hook to the boat, and pull it tighter. Now with our strap pulled tight between the winch and the boat, we're done. It was that easy to install, and that heavy-duty strap is going to last a lot longer than that original one did. That does it for our look at the Fulton winch strap. Hope that helps.

This heavy-duty strap measures 20' long x 2" wide and has a working load limit of 4,000 lbs.well if you have enough depth on your winch spool,
which i did, and you can disassemble your winch ( get spool off) bolt head broke off’ 1998 shorelander profile 2000; bolt was seized inside sleeve”
was a job !!! but all came out back in business:
Product fit perfectly on winch. Strap appears to be much stronger than original on trailer. You must save and use original bolt or purchase a new one to attach to the trailer winch. I purchased a stainless steel nut and bolt for about 2.00 USD. Overall etrailer came through for me again. Great product, Price was nice and standard shipping delivered my item in three days. Thank you etrailer!
I used the strap and a new winch for the first time this week-end. Both worked great pulling our 28' foot cruiser onto it's trailer.
Fast shipping, good pricing and fantastic follow-up from customer service rep.
Extremely pleased with the purchase process.

The strap has performed well. No problems. Thanks for the follow-up.
WILL WORK PERFECTLY FOR A REPLACEMENT
Perfect fit now I can wind it up and not have the knots I put in the old one get in the way...
Very heavy, almost to thick for a boat winch strap.
Good quality and reasonable price. This replaced a 30 year old strap, and it should last just as long.

Working great!
What can I say...It's a strap. It's yellow. It's strong. It's got a loop in the end to attach it to your trailer winch. And it's got a BIG hook. Everything I needed to replace the rope that was on my winch. Now there will be no worries cranking the boat up onto the trailer at the ramp. I'm a happy camper (boater).

Its been a year and the strap still works. I am noticing some fraying around the area where the hook connects to the strap, but I think I should get another year out of them before I seriously need to look at replacing them.
This strap looks like heavy duty. I'll be using it on my boat winch. It was time to replace my boat winch strap. It is heavier than my other strap. Give me a piece of mind.

This strap still looks like new.
This is an awesome strap and gives me great confindence that this strap will hold my boat to the trailer for years to come as the strap is twice as thick as the original and the stitching apears a lot better also. Very pleased

It is still like I bought it and doing just fine. Thanks
This is a good strap, but it requires a larger winch spool, most likely for larger boats. I have a 20' boat and was concerned about the thickness of the strap being too much for the spool, and I saw a couple of reviews indicating that concern. I called and the rep told me it would be ok. However, I'm finding it's too thick, so it wraps over the spool and gets cut by the top of the spool. Will need to replace it soon.

I will have Customer Service reach out to you.
Replaced strap that came with trailer. Alot beefier than original. Used to winch 21 ft. fiberglass boat. Happy with purchase. Confident it will do the job for a long time.

Very sturdy strap. If this came as original equipment on trailer, I doubt I would have replaced it yet.
As described and as expected - manufacturer brand OEM replacement. Prior was original to the trailer and weathered - eventually broke. Nice being able to find OEM from a high service company like etrailer.

Winch strap replacement that I used to replace the OEM strap on my 2002 Mastercraft trailer is still working great and enduring the weather well!
Absolutely the best boat strap I have ever owned.
The color is great for visibility & safety.
The strength is unbelievable, yet maintains it's uniformity.
Cannot be happier, buy it, don't hesitate especially at this low price.

Could not be any more satisfied, great product, heavy duty
I just replaced the original one that was on the trailer when I bought it new and I can say that this one is a much heavier grade strap than the original.....another great product

Still working fine, ready for it’s second winter
Great replaced strap and hook the winch was still good and sound this hook seems stronger than original.
I am totally delighted with my experience with etrailer. Their winch strap has a higher working load rating than I could find anywhere else, and the price point is below other less sturdy models elsewhere. It was shipped immediately, and arrived in just a few days even though I elected for the cheapest shipping. All contacts with this company have been professional and satisfying. The strap itself is super sturdy and the right length at 20 ft (longer ones form too high a roll and are in danger of falling off the sides of my winch drum).
Looks very good. I have not put it on the trailer yet, but it looks very well made.

The winch works perfect. No problems at all. Great buy.
To start,I am absolutely very satisfied with everything ETRAILER.COM...you folks at ETRAILER have been SPOT ON with everyone of my orders,from shipping the very high quality product in a absolute timely manner..even with this pandemic situation we find ourselves in..you never fail in customer satisfaction...and for this customer I am whole HEARTEDLY satisfied...and will continue to order from you folks in the future....I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ETRAILER.COM FOR ALL YOUR TRAILER NEEDS AND THEN SOME..
The product is as advertised and arrived promptly on time. I installed it and it worked perfectly. This is a much stronger strap than the lighter models originally installed on my trailer and this gives me a much greater piece of mind. It does take a large winch wheel so make sure that you have a large winch wheel before you order one or you will need to replace that also. Mine was plenty large with room to spare, but my old strap looked puny on the wheel, so I was fairly certain that it would fit.
I just received my Fulton Winch Strap, model FWS20D0200 from etrailer.com as my original strap had recently snapped after 5 years of solid use. The product I received is what I expected. I'm not a fan of the new yellow color would have preferred black, but hey, it's a winch strap. I hope this strap holds up as long as the first.
Ordering through etrailer.com was easy. I was kept up to date with order confirmation, and a tracking number was provided with my order. Great customer service.
I rated this product based on the look and feel of it. To give an honest opinion I would need to install it on my boat trailer and use it for a few months - then I would be happy to come back and give a report.
I depend on what others say about products I purchase so I am always more than happy to share my opinion when asked by a vendor.
Great service - quick response on delivery - that I can rate as 100% satisfied.
Excellent service and products. Very informative videos with installation instructions. Could not be happier.
