E Track Straps

E Track Straps

E Track straps are the best partner that works with the E Track rails which are installed in the moving van, enclosed trailers, moving trucks, etc. With the strength of the wall or floor, the E Track strap can provide strong cargo securement ability during your cargo transportation. E Track straps are very popular in the cargo securement market because they can secure firmly, quickly, and fit for different securement points. These tie down straps can help truck drivers and professional movers to improve their working efficiency. In another way, we can say the E Track tie downs make you load and unload cargo easier and establish good relationships with your customers.

E Track straps normally come in two main types: E Track Ratchet Straps and E Track Cam Buckle Straps. They are designed to latch into the E Track system easily. E Track Ratchet Straps are designed to tighten heavier cargo and E Track Cam Buckle Straps are designed to tighten light duty cargo or some sensitive cargo, such as antiques, paintings, glassware, etc.

Before tying down, it is very important to decide to use E Track ratchet strap or Cam Buckle E Track Strap. If you transport customer’s personal belongings, we suggest you use cam buckle e track straps to tie down the cargo by using your hand strength. If you are transporting industrial cargo, such as metal, machine, or wooden, we suggest you use E Track ratchet straps to tie down the cargo with enough strength.

How to Use E Track Straps?

A. Installation of E Track Rails:

1. Determine Placement: Decide where you want to install the E track rails in your vehicle or trailer. Consider the size and shape of your cargo and ensure that the rails are positioned in a way that provides optimal load securement.

2. Mark the Mounting Points: Use a measuring tape and marker to mark the locations where the E track rails will be mounted. Ensure that the rails are evenly spaced and aligned.

3. Mount the Rails: Secure E track rails to the vehicle’s interior using screws, bolts, or rivets. Ensure firm attachment to support expected load.

B. Securing the Load with E Track Straps:

1. Selecting the Appropriate Strap Type: Choose the appropriate E track strap based on the weight, size, and shape of your cargo. Consider factors such as load capacity, strap length, and tensioning mechanism (ratchet or cam buckle).

2. Proper Placement and Tensioning:

a. Attach the Strap: Insert the loose end of the strap through the opening in the E track rail and pull it through until you have enough length to reach the cargo.

b. Position the Strap: Place the strap over or around the cargo in a manner that ensures securement. Make sure the strap is positioned to apply downward pressure or prevent movement in the desired direction.

c. Thread the Strap: Feed the loose end of the strap back through the E track rail, ensuring it is securely inserted.

d. Tension the Strap: Depending on the strap type, use the appropriate mechanism (ratchet, cam buckle, or integrated fitting) to tighten the strap and apply sufficient tension.

3. Securing and Releasing the Straps:

a. Lock the Strap: Engage the locking mechanism of the strap (ratchet buckle, cam buckle, or integrated fitting) to prevent slippage and maintain tension.

b. Test the Securement: Verify the load’s stability by gently shaking or tugging it. Confirm secure hold and make any tension adjustments if needed.

c. Releasing the Straps: To release the straps, disengage the locking mechanism (ratchet or cam buckle) and carefully pull the strap out of the E track rail. Ensure that the tension is released gradually to prevent sudden movement or recoil of the strap.

d. Store the Straps: Properly coil or store the straps in a designated area when not in use to keep them organized and readily accessible for future use.
