Expert Reply:

I took a sample of the Erickson Bolt-On Re-Tractable Ratchet Straps # EM34417 from our warehouse so that I could take the measurements you asked about. I prepared a photo for you to illustrate the measurements of the main ratchet housing and the bottom mounting surface.

The overall ratchet housing measures 5-1/2-inches from end to end and 2-1/4-inches wide at its widest part. The base portion that bolts down to your preferred mounting surface measures 4-inches long x 1-3/4-inches wide.

Please refer to the linked photo for these and other dimensions.

Tie-down straps must be chosen according to their safe working load limit (WLL). The weight of the secured cargo must not exceed the combined WLL of the straps being used. For example, if you are using straps with a WLL of 500-lbs each to tie down a load weighing 1,000-lbs, then you need at least 2 straps to safely secure that load. It is recommended that you always use straps in pairs.
