For a very easy-to-use tensioning device, you can never go wrong with the strength of a Ratchet Buckle from Ancra Aircraft. These buckles are one of the most reliable ways to secure a load, making them a popular choice among freight handling operators everywhere, both on the road and in the air.
To tension a tie down strap using a ratchet buckle, you just need to feed the strap through the spool, pull it so that there’s no slack, and then work the ratchet until the strap is nice and tight against the cargo, holding is steady and stable in a viselike grip. Throughout the process, you remain in control over how much you want to tighten down the webbing. This is the ideal tensioning device if you want to experience full cargo control.
