Cinching tie-downs secure your gear to a cargo carrier or roof rack. Each durable polypropylene strap has a chrome-plated cam buckle that holds the strap tight over your cargo. And vinyl buckle guards prevent scratches on your gear. 700 lbs Max load.

Specs:
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. It is recommended that you always use straps in pairs.

Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Sport Rack Sports Gear Cargo Straps, 9 feet in length, red in color, rated at 700 lbs, part number Sr0700. We'll go ahead and take it out on our test course to show you how the straps perform. These Sport Rack tie downs have a wide variety of applications. They can be used to secure gear in your hitch-mounted or roof-mounted cargo carrier, or maybe secure a kayak or small boat on the roof of your vehicle. They have a nice stainless steel sturdy cam buckle here. This is what you would insert the end of the strap through the buckle and pull tight. It has this nice vinyl pad here.
If this buckle happens to rest on maybe a painted surface in your vehicle or maybe some painted surface of gear that you're hauling around, or the application that we have set up for today, if by chance that you have a kayak or a small boat, maybe of fiberglass or any other sensitive materials, this special pad is designed to prevent any scratches, maybe some dings or dents, deep gouges that this buckle could cause when you cinch the strap down. The strap itself is 1" wide by 9 feet long. It has a 700 lb break strength. It has these specially woven fibers for increased strength and durability. Both straps do come with this part number, giving you the ability to tie it on multiple items. How these straps work is basically they're designed to loop around something, or loop and come back around to itself. You'll notice they don't have any hooks or any type of caraveener 01:50, so basically what you would do is take this around your gear, take this around your basket or kayak, loop it back around, go through the buckle, and pull it tight. Now we have this kayak here set up behind us.
We'll go ahead and show you how to secure it. We'll go ahead and climb up and access the roof of the vehicle. You can see we've got our kayak all loaded up. We already have the bow and stern secured, which is recommended when loading up the kayak. We'll simply take these straps and how we're going to loop this around, we'll go from the back side, going to go over there and throw that strap around. At the other side, we're going to take this strap and actually loop it under the bar and then go back over the top of the kayak.
We want to make sure both ends are at the top. Then we're going to repeat that process for that other side. When you're bringing that strap around the underside of the bar, you want to make sure it's on the inside of the foot ore tower so that the strap doesn't accidentally slip off the bar and your kayak goes floating down the highway. Then we'll bring the strap back around and push in this little silver tab here at the top of the buckle. We'll insert the end of this strap through the little slot of that leather vinyl, then insert the end into the buckle.
Basically we'll just pull it tight. Then we'll just go ahead and secure the excess strap. You can see that this vinyl pad is directly. the entire surface of the buckle is being protected by that vinyl pad protecting the surface of our kayak. You can see this strap is 9 feet long, and we are getting kind of the end of the strap here, sort of pinning on how wide the whole of your kayak is. You may need to purchase a longer length of strap. Then we'll go ahead and repeat the same process for our other cross bar. The straps have a break strength of 700 lbs, but when the strap is looped, the break strength increases to 1400 lbs, add a working load limit of 233 lbs, and they come with a limited lifetime warranty. Now that we've got our kayak all loaded up, we'll go ahead and take it on our test course to show you how the straps perform. That'll complete today's review of the Sport Rack Sports Gear Cargo Straps. 9 feet in length, red in color, part number Sr0700. .

Up-to date status & quick shipping.
Would definitely use etrailer again!
It does the job holding my ladder in place on my roof rack. However it is a bit annoying to have to wrap it around as opposed to something which clamps down on the load. Also the straps fray making it difficult to put through the metal clasp.
Heather A - 07/23/2018These were a great help building the bike / kayak rack for my 55 chevy truck
These are good for short haul and light weights such as securing a tarp over something you're hauling. I would not use them for securing heavy objects in my pickup truck. For light duty, they're worth the price.
Michael M - 11/08/2018The products ordered were great and worked as promised as was the customer service, as I have come to expect from trailer, which I why I keep coming back.
Strap is good. Latches are okay. Looks like it would rust if exposed to the elements.
Mtb K - 11/09/2020Great product for what I need it for. Use it to tie down my kayak on the car's roof.

Great quality for great price and fast shipping

I bought several Erickson Tie-Down Rope w/ Ratchets to allow me to lift/store my truck cap. Best value and quality I found anywhere. Makes this job so much easier -I was using standard ratchet straps which I had to unwind (can only ratchet a little before it becomes "full". Used a couple of 2x4s under the cap and 2 of the SportRack Cam Buckle Cinch Straps to keep the cap attached to the 2x4s.
Don't go to Walmart - prices and selection were much better here!

I used this to tie down some cargo in the back of my pickup, and when I got to my destination (about 350 miles), it was already frayed in several spots. When I checked the specs on the straps, I realized I hadn't ordered ones strong enough for what I wanted. They are great for short distances and lighter weight, and I've used them several times for that.

2 long straps, very good, strong quality, buckles that fit tightly. Will be used to hang up a kayak on a wood beam. Even looks good, green color. Strap feeds through a small protective pad, so the buckle cannot rub against anything. End of strap is cut at an angle, pointed, sealed so that it is thin and feeds easily through the buckle.

Worked well for a trip with a cargo car topper. Ran it from San Diego to Canada and back, no problem. If you want to stop the strap from whistling in the wind, simply make sure it has a twist or two in the strap before securing, this will eliminate the windy whistling sound. This product perform well for a 30 day expedition, on the car 24 hours a day with multiple weather patterns etc. No issues at all
Review from a similar Sports Gear in Boat Tie Downs
Glad I got the 15' version. I used them for extra security on fastening a Rola expandable bag on the top of my Carpod carrier. The Rola bag fastening system is secure front to back but the SportRack straps provided the peace of mind I wanted for side to side. The straps never loosened over a 3200 mile trip. The buckles are protected somewhat by an attached flap. That flap is very flimsy and ripped immediately where there is an opening for the strap. The flap remained in place and provided the protection for the cargo but better material in the flap would have appreciated.

Exactly what I expected. Looks like good quality material.
Review from a similar Sports Gear in Boat Tie Downs
Good for light duty, such as securing a tarp around whatever I've carrying in the back of my truck. I wouldn't trust them to tie down heavy loads. They are worth the money for light duty.
Review from a similar Sports Gear in Boat Tie Downs
I was looking for the same kind of straps 10' to 15' in Sporting Goods, Walmart, Target and other stores but i could not find the same or similar to this product. I really satisfied about this product that i bought it from etrailer.com. Thank you and wish you much more progress for the future to serve the customers.
Thank you.
Review from a similar Sports Gear in Boat Tie Downs
Used the straps to secure a hot tub cover. Worked great but I had to fasten hooks as the straps did not have the hooks option. Would have purchased hooks if available.
