Ratchet Strap Hook fittings are at the heart of any custom ratchet strap assembly, and at Rope Services Direct we stock lots of different products of this type. From claw hooks and chassis / rave hooks to snap hooks, you will find what you need on our site.
To keep cargo in check during transit, lashing devices are a necessity. The ratchet strap hooks we offer are fit for just such a task. With our claw hooks being the most popular option to ensure safety. We sell claw hooks of different sizes and widths, so you can order bespoke ratchet strap fittings from our site.
Our chassis hooks are a little wider than standard claw hooks. They tend to be chosen for securing loads in HGVs. With safe working limits of up to 10 tonnes, these hooks are capable of standing up to heavy duty work.
The production of claw hooks involves shaping and welding metal wire. This is so it is able to offer superior strength when securing a load-bearing strap in place. If you need a claw hook that comes with a latching system to create an even safer anchor point, these are also available from Rope Services Direct.
A claw hook typically sits at the end of a ratchet strap. This is to provide a fast yet effective way of quickly keeping a load in check. Because we offer custom ratchet strap assemblies, you can configure something unique that includes this type of component. It is possible to choose different materials to provide additional resistances against hazardous environments.
or lashing heavy loads in a road transport context, rave hooks can be the most useful ratchet strap fittings on the market. They can be quite a bit wider than our claw hooks and so can accommodate webbing of various sizes and capacities.
Our chassis hooks also fall into this category. They offer the aforementioned advantage of having an extra bar of metal wire secured between the two sides. This keeps the entire assembly more stable and resilient over time. Making sure that even the most sizable types of cargo can be fastened in place during transit
Flat snap hook fittings are a versatile type of ratchet strap fitting that offers an extra layer of security when lashing larger loads.
Flat snap hooks fittings are the right fitting to choose when you want to make sure that there is no chance of a ratchet strap becoming loose. The snap mechanism locks it in place to an anchor point, so it cannot be jiggled out of position unnecessarily.
A snap hook is not just a great option for avoiding accidents and ensuring safe transport of cargo. It is also a slim, compact, cost effective component that lets you stitch the strap through it for a permanent lashing solution.
While flat snap hooks sit flush with the strap, twisted strap hooks are oriented at 90 degrees. This is so that they can clip onto an anchor point that aligns with this angle. They can be deployed for various purposes, but tend to be used mostly to stop loads from shifting in transit.
Furthermore our twisted snap hooks have the advantage of being equipped with a safety catch. This lessens the likelihood that the strap will slip off an anchor point of its own accord. Safety catches are also available on our chassis hook range so you are not limited to relying on a twisted snap hook to access this feature.
