Can E-Track be Driven Over and be Used to Secure Vehicle Tire To
Question:
Im thinking of putting E-Track on the floor of my trailer which I will be driving over it with a 5,000lbs car then using tire straps to anchor the car down. Question is Will the E-Track hold up to the weight of the car or will the E-Track collapse?

Expert Reply:
E-track can be driven over and it will be fine. It would not collapse or otherwise damage itself. You could use and drive over the Erickson Horizontal E-Track # EM19147. Then for a wheel strap the Erickson E-Track Wheel Tie-Down Strap with Roller Idler and Ratchet # EM58523 would work well. I attached a picture of a wheel and tire secured to this track for more info as well.
