Expert Reply:

I have an answer for you. Almost all of our drill-on retractable ratchet straps like the CargoBuckle Ladder Rack Tie-Down Straps - 1-1/4" Square Bar - 667 lbs # IMF18816 require a surface that is at least 1-1/4" long. With your 1" x 2" bars, these will not be able to bolt onto your square bars.

However, the exception to the rule is the ProGrip Top-Loader Tie-Down Strap - Double-J Hook - Zinc Bracket - 8' x 1-1/2" # 317-902500. I went ahead and called my tech at ProGrip with your dimensions, and he confirmed that these straps should work with your 1" x 2" square tubes. This is the best route. I went ahead ahead and attached a demonstration video for you to check out.
