RATCHET LASHINGS

RATCHET LASHINGS

Generally, a lashing is selected for its minimum break strength, with the length and the type of end termination being the other determining factors.

The rated assembly strength of our lashing is 50% of the minimum break strength (as B.S.5759)

The ratchet lashings that we can supply are

• Inherently absorbent of shocks
• Corrosion free
• Simpler, more positive inspection- if it looks alright then it is alright
• Lighter weight means easier working, and less risk of injury
• Lower weight also means lower transport costs.
• Suppleness of polyester accommodates irregularities of the load. Chain may damage the load or grip in the wrong place.
• Less risk of damage to polished, painted or sensitive surfaces
• Superior level of cargo control through high pretensioning.

Our ratchet lashing systems are lightweight, modern and easy to use.

 The standard range includes 500kg, 1 tonne and 5 tonne minimum break strength (M.B.S.)
