SMARTSTRAPS Retractable Ratchet Straps are designed for securing heavy cargo such as boats, motorcycles, or appliances in pickups or trailers. These straps feature an ergonomic design for optimal performance, including overmolded handles for leverage and comfort. The orange color-coding indicates heavy-duty capacity with a safe work load of 1,000 lbs and a break strength of 3,000 lbs.
