Length of the Retractable Section of the Erickson Retractable Ratchet Straps, part # 34413

Updated 10/04/2016 | Published 10/03/2016

Question:

I would like to know how long is the non retracting end from the end of the hook to the center of the ratchet? I have a jet ski and dont want the ratchet laying against the hull. I am replacing the pair I have now that are broken and the distance from the end of the hook needs to be between 9 and 14 inches. Thank you. If these wont work then maybe you have ones that will. They dont have to be retractable but I want ratcheting. See the attached photo.

I went out and pulled a Erickson Retractable Ratchet Straps, part # 34413 from our warehouse to get the dimension you asked about.

From the inside of the hook to the nearest portion of the ratchet assembly measures 6-1/2 inches and then from the inside of the hook to the furthest point out on the ratchet measures 10 inches.
