Erickson E Track - EM09144

Roller idler lets you secure your vehicle by the tire or the frame to the E track in your trailer. Sturdy idler helps you route tie-down straps for easy ratcheting while also protecting your cargo.

Wide roller ensures smooth operation - strap won't catch or pull

This roller idler can be very helpful when you're securing your car to your trailer with a ratchet strap. Without the roller idler, the ratchet would be located under your car where there often isn't enough space to comfortably tighten down the strap. And if you ran the strap out from under your car to better operate the ratchet, then the strap would rub against your bumper. The roller idler allows you to move the ratchet out from under your vehicle so that you can easily tighten the strap, and it prevents the strap from rubbing against your bumper.

I have not had an opportunity to use these yet, but in set-up they look great, are well made, and will make the trailer tie-down process each.

by: George 07/16/2019

Used this product to shorten a ratchet strap and provide the correct angle of pull. Couldn't be happier.

When you are new to E-track you get the tracks, the tie down rings & tie off straps and of coarse the tie down straps. But you may over look this idler roller tie off. You find that certain cargo is too low making difficult to use tie off straps. This forces you to strap more horizontally which doesn't allow sufficient down force. I found this out when transporting a 72" mower deck. Now I can place a couple of these idler under each mower arm and use only 1 tie off strap (instead of 4) . This allows for direct vertical force plus you don't have to worry about scratching the paint with hooks.

Works fine a year later. This has a unique capability for tying down cargo and is part of my tie down tool box.

by: Mike 02/28/2018 One Year Later

I have e-track on my car trailer deck, mostly to provide handy points for strapping on random stuff like furniture. I got these for that purpose, unfortunately this isn't handy for hooks or straps. I sometimes use the ones with the loops, or mostly strap straight into the e-track.

by: William R 04/02/2018 One Year Later

This product is well made and the idea is great when you have limited space and need to secure cargo but have no room for the ratchet. However, wider 2 & 3” straps work best where 1” straps tend to seek one side or the other of the device and potentially could be damaged.. The roller reduces resistance allowing more tightening of your straps and giving you valuable room as well to operate the ratchet in close quarters situations. A bit pricey but one of those tools you’ll come to appreciate if you haul atv’s or cars.

by: Vintage Bob 06/27/2014

I have always have a great experience with E Trailer. Great prices and top quality merchandise delivered in a timely manner, and at great prices. What more could I ask for. They are my number one go to for all my trailer and tie down needs. I actually used the roller proportion to adapt to an L track slide bottom for my race car trailer tie downs. Worked a charm. Thanks.

by: James 04/25/2022 One Year Later

I was just using my trailer today and realized what a great investment these e-tracks are. Yeah, they're expensive, but ya just can't beat the versatility of being able to lock something down anywhere you want.

by: Rev 06/01/2014

Works great, holds full tension on the strap. Perfect for tying down my Mini Cooper S. I use this to transition the strap over the tire, the clamp the free end to the Etrack I got for here also. ETrailer always delivers, my order was shipped quickly, and correctly.

by: Brian 10/21/2025

Like your stuff nice product decent price

by: Brian B 02/02/2015

Great accessory for E-track! Allows me to lock down my UTV tires with little to no effort and takes out the hassle of adjusting the straps to odd angles.

by: William 03/11/2019

Yes I did receive the order and it was exactly what I needed. I installed the etrack on my trailer and hauled my bike to Florida. It worked great and I didn’t have to worry about the tie downs coming loose.

Thanks

by: Eric 05/05/2015

Works great with other E-Track products purchased through etrailer. I'm using it on a strap to hold the wheels of my Ariel Atom to the trailer floor.

by: Tom B. 05/31/2015

I have purchased from etrailer.com in the past and I have had excellent service, turnaround, and product selection for my requirements each time. The current purchase is for securing my 2015 Chevy Equinox inside my enclosed car hauler. This will be towed behind my 42' Motorhome. I highly recommend etrailer as I have found no other supplier as product comprehensive.

by: Don 08/21/2018 One Year Later

This is a very well built product that has help secured many items in my trailer. From ATV's, ladders and generators just to name a few.

by: steve s. 06/01/2017

I received my order a few days ago. Everything was there and well packaged. I had great help and answered my questions. Now the work begins installing my E-track on my new car trailer and getting everything to work the way I want it to. Thanks etrailer for your help.
Sincerely,
Steve S.

Comparing the Erickson Roller Idler to a different brand being sold by a local trailer dealer: These appear to be equal in quality (and I'll trust my cars' safety to them) and lower in price, including shipping charges.

by: Capt Tony Savannah Ga 01/21/2017

Great company easy ordering super fast processing and shipping and fantastic price
The Erickson roller idlers worked perfect for a lower pulling angle for all my Honda 1000 pioneers and Rincon's on my featerlite 3110 trailer with e-trac

by: William 03/22/2018 One Year Later

Excellent quality, fits track rail system correctly, no issues.

by: Danny B. 11/24/2013

Excellent product idea. A little concerned with how they fit in the track. If pulled toward the latch side, the other side barely stays in the slot. Going to try to make sure I only pull them the other way.

by: Fritz 02/20/2024 One Year Later

I do not use these frequently, but they are handy when needed. Positive attachment to tracks.

by: Johnny 03/28/2022 One Year Later

Works great with my side x side and my Spyder, straps over tires with no suspension compression.

by: michael p. 04/05/2017

perfect for my trailer tie downs.

by: Jeff B 06/19/2016 One Year Later

One year later and all is working well. My toy trailer is properly outfitted to adapt to many different vehicles.

by: Daniel 11/14/2017 One Year Later

The product broke and the car came loose on the trailer the very first time we used it.

Do you have a question about this E Track?

Erickson E-Track Tie Downs for Mini Cooper
The Erickson Adjustable Wheel Net with E-Track Fittings # 77314 would not be compatible with the Erickson Roller Idler for E-Track # EM09144 simply because there would be no way to get the straps from the Wheel Net through the Roller Idler because of the E-track fittings attached to the Wheel Net. I've left links to video reviews of each product for you to take a look at.

The roller of the Erickson Roller Idler for E-Track # EM09144 that you referenced is 3 inches from where it attaches to the E-track. The E-track will then be 7/16 of an inch from the ground so in total the roller of the # EM09144 is 3-7/16 inches tall from your trailer floor.

Using Erickson Roller Idler Along with E-Track Tie Down Ring

This tie down ring has a Safe Working Load Limit of 2,000 pounds and a 6,000 pound capacity. As you referenced in your question, when using this with the Roller Idler that will act as an anchor point, the strap will then be fed through the ratchet and run more parallel to the E-track. This will not affect the weight capacity of the Tie Down Ring. I confirmed...

Can Snap-Loc E-Track Tie-Down Strap Work With Erickson Horizontal E-Track
The Snap-Loc E-Track Tie-Down Strap, part # SLLS28RER will work great with the E-Track systems like part # E19148 and part # EM09144. You will want to make sure you have the E-track attached to the floor really secure. To make sure it is secured properly you may want to use the E-Track Backing plate, part # e96RR.
