Could Brophy Rope D-Ring Tie-Down Anchor SS15-C Be Used with 3/4 inch Plywood

Question

Question:

Can I use this on 3/4 thick plywood or do I need thicker? It will be mainly used to tie down motorcycles for transport.

Helpful Expert Reply:

3/4 inch plywood will be fine as long as it is properly installed to the floor of your trailer and your motorcycle isn't a 1,200 lb monster like a Goldwing.

I would recommend using an anchor plate below the plywood like the part # e96RR.
