Differences Between Different Brands of E-Track
Question:
I’m going to be purchasing some e track rails and accessories at some point. I have never used them because I always used open trailer. Looks like there are many manufacturers. Any suggestions on deciding?

Since the slot dimensions and capacity of different brands of E-Track are identical, really the only differences are the finish and the lengths the tracks are sold in. If you're using the E-Track in an area where aesthetics are important, you can use a powder coated version like # e42VR. If a galvanized steel finish is okay with you, the # e62VR that you'd looked at would work just fine for you. Both part numbers provide 4-8 foot sections of E-Track.
I've used E-Track for years, and the versatility of loading options if offers you is amazing. I've linked you to our selection of E-Track accessories and ratchet straps.
