Review of SmartStraps Tie Down Straps - Axle Strap - 348856

Today we're taking a look at the SmartStraps Axle Strap with D-Rings.This is going to make a great attachment point for your vehicle if you're going to be towing it with a trailer, and it helps to secure it down to the bed of that trailer. Just wrap the strap up and around our axle, and then tie it down to a secure point on our trailer, whether that's to either side, or back on itself.It has a protective sleeve to help prolong the life of our strap, help to keep wear to a minimum, and it's constructed of a durable webbing, has some reinforced stitching on both ends, to make sure that that doesn't come apart. Our two D-Rings have a pretty thick construction. They feel pretty nice and secure.You will want to use this with a ratchet strap to make sure that everything is tightened down properly. Of course, you can find a lot of ratchet straps here at etrailer.com to load everything up and get everything tightened down properly.This measures 31" from end to end, going from the very tip of the D-Ring to the same point on the other side. The strap measures 2" wide. more
