Note: 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.
The gunwale (side edge around the boat) provides important tie-down points for securing your boat to your trailer, usually just aft of the midsection. This gunwale strap is intended to be part of a boat tie-down system, and it should always be used along with a bow strap and a set of transom straps, for safe trailering.
A tie-down system is only as strong as its weakest link. Heat, humidity, and salt from road treatments or ocean spray all contribute to rust, which causes the hooks and buckles in most tie-downs to weaken, seize, and possibly break. The stainless steel components in this Kwik-Lok gunwale tie-down provide maximum corrosion resistance. No more hard-to-open buckles or rusted hooks. In other words, no more weak links.
The Kwik-Lok buckle on this gunwale strap can be easily opened and closed with one hand, which simplifies the process of tightening the strap down. To release the strap, simply pop open its buckle. Then pull the strap through and snap the buckle down to close it. The sturdy polyester strap is woven through the over-center buckle. So once the buckle is closed, it will help maintain tension on the strap, keeping your boat more firmly secured than a strap with a standard cam buckle.

Speaker 1: Today we're taking a look at the BoatBuckle Quick Lock Gunwale Tie-Down Strap. This tie down strap lets you firmly secure your boat to your trailer. The unit does feature stainless steel construction when it comes to the double S-hook design as well as the quick lock buckle. Stainless steel is very strong and durable, provides maximum corrosion resistance, which makes this a great choice for saltwater applications. Now when it comes to these types of straps, you usually have a couple different designs. You either have a ratchet strap of you have a cam buckle strap but in this case, we're introducing the quick lock over center buckle.
It's easy to use and it holds your strap tight with a weave through design. Basically what you would do is you would connect your hooks to the connection points on the trailer and then you would pull out any slack that you may have. And just like a cam buckle, you pull it until the strap is tight over your boat.Then when you're ready to secure everything in place, you close the buckle and it has a break over point, which indicates that everything is tight and secure as it needs to be and you're ready to hit the road. Now this is easy to open and close with the use of just one hand. Once you have it all connected and tightened down, it's easy to operate with one hand.
It's also designed to maintain tension on the strap for a better hold, especially when compared to standard cam buckles. The material of the strap is like a seat belt quality. It's a strong polyester webbing. It's flexible and it's completely weather resistant. It's a nice strong durable design.
Now this strap is gray in color. It measures 2" wide and it's available in 10" and 13" lengths. For a 10", you'd use part number IMF12069 at etrailer.com. And for a 13", you'd use part number IMF12070. It features a safe working load limit of 333 pounds with maximum loader break strength of 1,000 pounds.
Just keep in mind that when choosing tie-down straps they must be chosen according to their safe working load limit. The weight of the secured cargo must not exceed the combined working load limit of the straps being used. That's going to do it for today's look at the BoatBuckle Quick Lock Gunwale Tie-Down Strap.

As usual, fast, courteous service. Boat Buckle kwik-lok gunwale tie-down strap is a simple, excellent way to prevent sway while trailering my boat. Attach to trailer, go over the gunwale and attach to other side of trailer. This is a old school product I have not seen in twenty years. E Trailer is the only place I could find it. 331968

Review from a similar BoatBuckle Kwik-Lok Gunwale in Tie Down Straps
Strap is well constructed and the buckle is very heavy duty. Much better than the ratchet strap I was using. I like that the buckle is on the top side near the middle instead of right on the side of my boat needing a lot of padding to keep from damaging the fiberglass. It's much easier to use than ratchet straps too. Just pull up the slack, snap the buckle down, your done. 287460
