These steel backing plates for the 5' E-track in your enclosed trailer provide more support than just securing it with using wood or metal screws. Bolt each plate to your E-track on the opposite side of the wall or under the floor.
Features:
Specs:
Note: The included hardware lets you mount your E-track on surfaces up to 2" thick.
These backing plates provide more support for your E-track (sold separately) than only using wood or metal screws. Simply put, they allow the pulling force to be distributed over a greater area. This prevents your mower, ATV, or other heavy object from pulling your E-track away from its mounting surface and tearing up your trailer's wall or floor. They're perfect for trailers with thin walls or floors.
Pre-drilled holes accommodate the standard 4-bolt mounting pattern found on most horizontal or vertical E-tracks. There are also holes to accommodate D-rings, Snap-Locs, and odd-shaped tie-down anchors.
To install, drill pilot holes in your mounting surface as close as you can to each end of your E-track and directly in the middle so that the plates will be evenly spaced. Place your E-track where you're mounting it and insert the included bolts. On the opposite side of your wall or floor, place the plates over the bolts and secure them using the included washers and nylon lock nuts.

These steel backing plates for the 5' E-track in your enclosed trailer provide more support than just securing it with using wood or metal screws. Bolt each plate to your E-track on the opposite side of the wall or under the floor.I have had these installed on my utility trailer for a year. They were easy to install and do an excellent job holding my e-track and 1000 lb bike down. Well worth the price and the peace of mind knowing I am not just relying on some screws.
The backers were substantial and provided a solid base for our winch and other attachments made to the inside of the trailer, would strongly recommend
These E-tracks installed relatively easily on my new trailer using the available backing plates. Total install of 18' of track took less than 4 hours - a one man job except for the final tightening of the bolts included in the backing plate kit.
Used them across the i-beams of my aluminum trailer and they worked great.
Exactly what I needed. Great having all the hardware.
Product works as described. Perfect for what I needed.
This is the only way to go with a "thin" plywood floor! You could buy another e-track rail and chop it into backing plates, but then you don't have the hardware to go with it which gets pretty pricy.
Nice product
Backing plates worked perfectly and bolts were long enough to go through a 1 1/2 board
You guys are great! Always seem to have just what I need, easy to navigate website, great customer service, lots of "How to" videos, and exceptional shipping department that jumps on it and gets me the product in near no time.
Very pleased! Product was shipped promptly and I received exactly what I ordered. Thank you!
What I like the best is your customer service. I was missing 1 backing plate in my order, I called and talked to Adam and he got me taken care of ASAP.
Everything else was exactly as advertised on your website.
I really appreciate your instructional videos.
I have come to expect the very best from your products and will order again.
Great customer service! You can tell from employees that people care at this company.
Great product & even better service
Review from a similar etrailer Backing Plate in Accessories and Parts
Shipping was very fast even recieved before date due to arrive.Plates worked well with my DC Cargo vertical etracks. Good quality and was easy to install . Definitely would recommend when using on trailer deck or flooring that is 1/2 -5/8 thick .
Review from a similar etrailer Backing Plate in Accessories and Parts
Back plates are very easy to install as the holes are universal enough to fit about any pattern of bolting the tracks in place. They seem sturdy enough to get the job done. I cannot attest to how long they will hold up as I just installed them, but I would expect they will last a long time. However, I actually plan to seal mine with undercoating to ensure longevity.
