BoatBuckle Boat Tie Downs - IMF17632

Features:

Heavy-duty tie-down straps firmly secure your boat's transom (stern) to your trailer
SUR-Grip rubber-coated Kwik-Lok buckle is easy to grip and control with one hand
Seat-belt-quality polyester webbing
Hi-Vis protective PVC pads under the buckle and vinyl-coated steel top S-hooks protect your boat's paint finish
Zinc-coated hook attaches to trailer and withstands the elements
Night Eyes closure patch on buckle reflects light, adding to your safety at night

Specs:

Strap dimensions: 2" wide x 4' long
Maximum load strength (break strength): 1,200 lbs
Safe working load limit (WLL): 400 lbs
Quantity: 2 transom straps
1-Year limited warranty

Load your boat onto your trailer, open the buckle, connect the bottom S-hook of the Pro Series strap to the back end of your trailer's frame, then connect the vinyl-coated top S-hook to the loop on the stern of the boat. Pull the end of the strap through its buckle and turn the buckle down to tighten the strap.

Note: Transom tie-downs should always be used along with a winch strap and a set of gunwale tie-downs. All straps and cables should be chosen according to their safe working load limit (WLL). To determine the maximum load, or break strength, of the strap, simply multiply the WLL by 3. The WLL is always one-third (1/3) of the maximum load.

Excellent tie downs for a boat trailer. Would recommend them for walleye boats and any aluminum boat. Mine is an 18 footer with a 94 inch beam with a 150 Optimax on a hydraulic jack plate.

Just what I needed and received fast

by: BiffR 10/01/2014

First off, etrailer rocks. Anything I order from them arrives so fast it's scary.
I just put these on my boat and I really like the way they work and the ease of use. Also, the rubber backing is nice to keep the buckle from scratching up the boat. The only negative I could find with these is the rivets that form the hinge on them seems a bit wimpy. They are a bit overly long and small in diameter for the holes they are in, so they seem to flop around a bit and are at an angle when the buckles are locked. I could see myself replacing these with small nuts and bolts in the future. Otherwise, these things are absolutely perfect boat straps.

I guess its been a year and my straps are still going strong. I thought that the rivets that form the hinge might break, but so far they are fine. I dont crank them down as tight as i know I could, but I get them plenty tight to hold the boat to the trailer.

by: Skip 11/30/2017 One Year Later

The straps work well and are easy to use. I had started using them with motorcycle loops wrapped around the frame, but that was awkward and then the loops got lost. Now I hook the tie downs directly to a hole in one of the support brackets and they're easier than ever. The lever action makes them nice and tight.

Still like them. Review still stands. Still like them. Review still stands. Still like them. Review still stands

by: Tom B 07/28/2016

This is a good quality product and Etrailer shipped it very quickly with a fantastic tracking system.
I especially liked the rubber backer that protects the boat. I have used this same product in the past and this newest set looks as if the company has made some nice improvements.
The only thing I'd like to see on the product in the future is a Made In The USA tag.

Great pair of straps. Hard use from them the past year and no wear shown.

by: Chris S 11/25/2019 One Year Later

Replaced my not-so-old tie downs with these etrailer.com ones and couldn't be happier. They are easy to attach and the lever buckle is much easier on my hands. Once tight, they do not slip!

Still working great!

by: Jac 04/07/2017 One Year Later

These are the best tie down straps. First available in multiple lengths to fit either the boat trailer or jet ski trailer. Protective covers to prevent metal against the hull. Tight and secure. Any excess strap held well in place by Velcro. Recommended.

by: Brian 11/26/2018

The selectin and ordering process was a breeze, the items were described clearly. My order (included various items) was shipped and received very quickly. The Transom tie down straps fit on my pontoon boat just as I hoped, the upper hook was coated to prevent scratching, the straps and buckle assembly seem to be very secure.

by: Cary 06/21/2013

I got these for a 12 ft. 1975 Jon Boat. The Transom of these boats are so light, that it shifts left or right from bumps or wind currents. I saw these somewhere , and priced them. eTrailer beat the rest out there on costs, shipping and reliability. I would put these on a 2000 lb. Boat and not worry . Much easier to use and clamp and adjust than the other straps/ pulls out there. WORTH their weight in GOLD.

by: Alex 06/21/2013

I had the same straps that lasted me five yrs. They frayed near clamps from friction to the piont of breaking.Ordered them agian and planning to be bit carefull that strap does not run to close to the metal edges when clamping.I like these because on my boat trailer the transom hook plate is easy to hookup straps standing up, then hook to boat transom eye hook adjust and clamp.The ratchet stile are nice but they require you to bend down to ratchet .Good for the young guys.I like to keep things simple,my old ones never loosend while trailerilng.So for the price i will use these again.Will keep the old ones for back ups.

by: PJ 08/19/2016

The product is great. Unfortunately, I can only hook up one side of the boat with the tie down strap, as I have a dive platform on the rear port side of my boat. My fault for not thinking of that. I am afraid that if I run the strap over the platform, it may either damage the platform or the boat if I were to hit a hard bump in the road. So, I put the second strap to good use using it to hold down the bow more securely that a strap I had been using.

by: ILLINIFAN 12/26/2012

tie downs. These are of much better quality than our local boat dealer who charges almost double for his product (sold singularly for almost what I paid for the set.) I highly recommend etrailer for purchases and have used them several times. Fast shipping, fast knowledgeable response to questions, and always courteous. I like to shop where my business seems to be appreciated.

by: Al C 10/22/2019 One Year Later

My BoaBuckle transom tie down straps work great. After a year of frequent use they work like new. I just retuned from a 700 mile trip where they worked flawlessly !

by: Brad 09/21/2016

After much looking around for new transom straps I found these. They are so easy to use other then the old ones I used to have fumbling around with the buckle after boating. I despised that after every boating trip and happy the old ones broke. These new ones are the quickest and simplest ones I have used. Love them and makes my boating experience happy once again. You can't go wrong one these straps.

by: Mike T 06/05/2015

I really liked how they sent the parts out I needed on a Sunday. Then the tracking was just terrific. I could see exactly were my things were each day. They told me how many days to expect them, when I got hom they were in my mail box. What a great job and a great product. I will take my boat this weekend and I will use the straps to secure the boat to the trailer. My old straps were damaged by letting them drag the ground.

by: Thomas Pendarvis 09/10/2014

The first set of trailer transom tiedown straps that I ordered were too short. The folks at E trailer couldn't have been more helpful in assisting in the return and replacement of the correct tiedown straps. I had ordered some other materials from them in the past, but their customer service this time was so extraordinary that it was certainly worth the time to make this post.

Rec'd my boat buckles today (one day earlier than expected) !!
Very good quality straps with very distinct snap when locked in place. hooks on the boat end have a good covering . I should have these straps for many fishing seasons!

Received fast! Had same set on my boat for 9 years and we're used a lot. Had good luck with this product and didn't want to change. Great product, great transaction.

Great Tie Downs well built!

by: Roger 08/08/2023

I needed a pair with a short distance between the buckle and the vinyl coated loop. These were perfect. The yellow rubber pad to protect the boat neatly nestles the buckle and the velcro cover secures the buckle. They don't seem overly robust but not much stress on them to hold a boat down on bunks is needed. I suspect they will be well worth the money.

by: Erik 07/17/2019 One Year Later

So far, so amazing. These buckles are legit. I have a light star craft super sport bow rider and these buckles hold the boat to the trailer tighter than a steel bolt to a sky scraper beam. Best purchase I’ve made in a while

by: Travis 07/28/2020

The Stern Straps I purchased for our boat we easy to use and look great, the protective covers really help protect the boat surfaces when installing or removing.
Shipping was quick and easy, the item arrived sooner than expected. I would highly recommend this item and e-trailer as a retailer.

by: Michael Greytok 10/19/2023 One Year Later

These are the best tie-downs I've ever used very easy to use. Easy to adjust, easy to explain to my brother. How they work Thank you very much, very satisfied.

by: Matt 05/06/2014

Ordering was easy and product showed up promptly. After getting my hitch thru etrailer, I was showing my loyalty. The straps did great as I towed the boat approx 150 highway miles.

Length of BoatBuckle Pro Series Kwik-Lok Transom Tie-Down # IMF17631
The BoatBuckle Pro Series Kwik-Lok Transom Tie-Down Straps # IMF17631 referenced in your question feature an overall length of 2 feet, which is measured from the inside of one hook to the inside of the other. There may be an inch or so tolerance but if you are needing any more than 2 feet your best option will really be with the 4 foot Transom Tie-Down Straps # IMF17632 that you also mentioned.

Can BoatBuckle Pro Series Tie-Down Straps # IMF17631 Be Adjusted For Less Than 24 Inches
The BoatBuckle Pro Series Tie-Down Straps, part # IMF17631, have a maximum tie-down length of 24 inches. The straps can be tightened down to a length less than 24 inches. You should have no problem using them if you have a tie-down length of 22 inches. It will not leave much excess strap. I would also look at the BoatBuckle Pro Series Tie-Down Straps, part # IMF17632. These straps have a maximum tie-down length of 48 inches and can be tightened down to 22 inches, but will leave you with...

Recommended Transom Straps For 4,500 lb Combined Boat And Trailer Weight
For your boat and trailer weighing 4500 lbs combined, I recommend the BoatBuckle Pro Series Kwik-Lok Transom Tie-Down Straps - 2" x 4' - 400 lbs - Qty 2 # IMF17632. These straps are more than enough to ensure that your boat will stay held tightly to your trailer.

Recommended Stainless Steel Boat Transom Tie-Down Straps
I spoke with my contact at BoatBuckle and they told me that the metal components on the BoatBuckle Pro Series Kwik-Lok Transom Tie-Down Straps, part # IMF17632, are made of steel but they are not stainless. They told me the hook that attaches to the trailer on this system is zinc-coated for corrosion resistance, and the S-hooks are vinyl-coated to protect your boat finish. We do offer straps that use stainless steel. Part # IMF14256, uses a stainless steel body that resists rust and...

The BoatBuckle Kwik-Lok Transom Tie Down Straps you mention, part # IMF17632 have a 1200 lb breaking strength, 400 working load limit (WLL) per strap. When determining the straps needed to secure a load of a certain weight, use the WLL figure. With the BoatBuckle straps you mentioned, the two straps will safely secure a load weighing 800 lbs (400 lbs per strap). Tie-down straps should always be chosen according to their WLL. The item being tied down must not exceed this weight. If the...
