Weight Capacity for the Erickson Stake Pocket Tie-Down Anchors # EM09085

Question:

Upon looking at tie down anchors what does WLL stand for. And does the 2000lbs designated to each anchor Im hauling 1050lbs pumps in the back of my Gmc pickup....are my holding anchors rated for that load?

WLL stands for Working Load Limit. The Erickson Stake Pocket Tie-Down Anchors # EM09085 that you referenced have a 2,000 lb working load limit when used as a pair. Working load limit means the amount of weight it can secure continuously. Some have a break strength capacity listed as well that is typically quite a bit higher.

For securing a 1,050 lb load these anchors would have more than enough capacity and would work well.
