Load Binder Solutions

If you're securing a load with a chain, you need to keep things as tight as possible to prevent shifting and slipping, and a load binder or chain binder makes tightening easier. There are two main types of load binders: ratchet and lever.

• A ratchet binder has a T-shape with hooks similar to those found on pulleys, located on either end of the top, plus an internal ratcheting mechanism that creates tension on the chain.
• A lever binder has a long handle with two chains hanging at one end, and it tightens chains via leverage rather than ratcheting action. Generally, a lever chain binder is easier to install, but a ratchet load binder offers increased security.

When choosing a load binder, pay attention to the working load limit, ensuring that it is adequate for your cargo. In addition, choose a chain binder that can accommodate the chain size you’re using.

Tie Down Options

Tie downs offer another solution for securing heavy or bulky loads for transport. There are many types to choose from, but one of the most popular options is the ratchet tie down. Also called a ratchet strap, a ratchet tie down locks in place with a buckle that stays securely fastened until you pull a release lever. This design ensures security while also allowing for ease of use. As with cable binder hardware, tie downs have maximum working load limits that you'll need to adhere to for safety. Ratchet tie downs come in a variety of lengths to suit your needs.

Cable Puller Products

When you need to reposition, tighten or stretch an object that you can't manipulate on your own, a cable puller or come-along can help you complete the task. You can use one when repairing or replacing fencing material, lowering tree limbs for cutting, transporting construction and landscaping materials and more. Although designs vary, most cable pullers feature attachment hooks on either end. Once you secure these hooks, a drive lever moves a mandrel and gear plates to move the rope, webbing or cable. Like load binders and tie downs, cable puller products have different working load limits, so be sure to select one that is suited to your application.
