A longer ergonomic handle increases leverage, which means less force is needed to reach the same tension, and the handle is easier to grip and release, especially with gloves on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Choose the Right Length\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasure the path the strap will take over the load, from one anchor point to the other, then add spare webbing for the ratchet to take up. Shorter 4m and 6m straps suit smaller loads, 8m to 12m covers most flatbed work, and 15m to 20m suits long or wide loads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSafe Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNever exceed the rated capacity shown on the strap label.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck the webbing, stitching, fittings and ratchet before every use, and replace any strap that is cut, frayed, bent or damaged.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse enough straps for the size and weight of the load, and protect the webbing from sharp edges with a wear sleeve or corner protector.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRe-check tension after the first few miles and during long journeys.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes this ratchet ergonomic?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has a longer handle than a standard ratchet, giving more leverage so the strap can be tensioned with less effort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does 5 ton mean on the strap?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is the strap's rating.
