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.
This ratchet features Back Off Technology that lets you safely back the tension off step-by-step. This helps prevent sudden movement when removing the strap. Simply put the lever into the additional Back Off position and ratchet in reverse to release the tension.

Speaker 1: Today we're taking a look at the ProGrip ratchet tie down strap. Now this tie down strap lets you easily secure cargo in your truck bed or trailer. The ratcheting mechanism makes it very easy to tighten down the strap, and it maintains tension on the strap. All you need to do is hook both sides to your truck bed or trailer, pull the slack out of the strap, and then use the ratchet to apply tension and tighten the strap over your gear.The main thing that sets this ratchet apart from others is it features a technology called Back Off technology. When you release the tension on a standard ratchet strap, they have a tendency to pop and release all the tension at once. This mechanism gives you the ability to release tension just like standard straps, if you want, as well as to release tension gradually or click by click using the handle to do so.
I'm going to place this here on the edge of the table. I'm going to go ahead and tighten the strap down. We got it pretty tight. Now this ratcheting mechanism has a locked position. This is the position you'd want it in during transport.
Then you have the center position, which is your ratcheting position. Then you have the fully open position, which would allow you to release tension like a normal ratchet strap and allow you to remove the strap from the ratcheting mechanism.Then you have this position here. This is a little slot. There's four different positions. The slot I'm going to show you allows you to use the handle to release tension.
You can't really hear it or see it, but what we just did is we released tension step by step or click by click. It's a lot safer. You don't have to worry about it popping. You don't have to worry about all the tension being released at once. It's a very easy way to release tension or loosen the strap when you're getting ready to unload your gear.The ratcheting mechanism has a really nice large handle, offers an easy grip design.
We have finger indentions there. It's easy to use even if you have gloves on because of the large design. Then you have the really nice release lever there that's easy to access also. The strap itself is made from durable polyester webbing. It's yellow in color so it's bright and highly visible. The hooks are double j-hooks. They're welded together. That's going to add to the strength and durability of the connection points. Those are made from steel and they feature a really nice corrosion-resistant plating to keep them safe from rust.Now the strap itself measures 2" wide by 40' long. The safe working load limit is 3,333 pounds. The maximum load or break strength is 10,000 pounds. Just always keep in mind that tie down straps must be chosen according to their safe working load limit. The weight of your 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 ProGrip ratchet tie down trap.
Ratings & Reviews
Great
Works as designed.
Doesn’t seem to work correctly
The reversible latch is not smooth during operations and gets stuck more than it works.
I received one of two items that seemed like it had previously been opened
Great quality and service.
Easy web site, great communication of order status, fast shipping/delivery.
Great customer service for returns and product replacement. Hassle free and prompt.
My initial shipment had some issues and they were quickly resolved.
Woefully inadequate and slips under load. Only one side of the cam catches the ratchet placing all the strain on one latch pin. Caused my load to shift. I threw them out after first use because I didn’t want my employees to accidentally use them.
Tie down works
Custom service was great George J and Chelsea D didn't forget my order and let my know what was going on with it and let me know when the tie-down I order a few months ago came in Thank You
Just got them today, looks exactly as I figured. Should last many years, key for me was reversible racheting since I will be using them to hoist my Jeep hard top. Will visit again once system is in place. Thanks etrailer
Excellent. What I like most is the safety release. I use this for lifting stacked washer and dryer into and out of closet installation..with a skyhook from the ceiling.
Ok let me say that I usually do not leave reviews however I was prompted to by etrailer thru an email to do so. Below is the email I wrote back to them stating why I did not write a review. Again I was prompted by etrailer. With the response I received back from them I thought is was appropriate to do so. Here is their response "I do apologize this product did not work for you. This being a year old I cant do much. Next time if you get a product and it breaks please give us a call to see if we can get the problem resolved for you right away."

Hello George. I would be happy to give a review but to be honest the ratcheting mechanism stopped working within two months. I have had many different straps in the past that stopped working and it usually could be fixed with some oil. This ratchet actually became misaligned and almost fell apart. I have never had one do that before. I simply threw that part into the metal scrap pile and found another ratchet to add to the strap side.
I may have had a faulty one or misused it in some way but I usually do not give bad feedback when I am not sure of the exact problem.
Great offering, fair price, free shipping incentive is good, initial order and follow-up is appreciated and perfect....arrived on
time...just beautiful!!! Thanks!
On time, good value
It is a solid item. Haven't used it but it looks like it will bevery solid.
