Product Description
Erickson's new retractable ratchet solves the problem of excessive webbing. With this innovative tie-down, only the webbing needed to secure the load is unrolled from the spring-loaded compartment. Once installed, the strap is then tightened like a normal ratchet. When not in use a strong return spring rolls the webbing up, similar to a seat belt or tape measure. Storage is so simple - no more piles of straps and webbing. 1" x 6'. Hold up to 1500lbs.

      After many years of assorted straps, many of which I still have, I am sold on these retractable straps. No more untangling and time trying to make "one fits all". They are a little more expensive but then again convenience has it's value too. Nice to know I can just grab one and it will do the job with no fuss.

      I ordered this particular product because it said that it would handle up to a 1500 lb. load. My Kawasaki 3 person JetSki weighs 1,000 lbs. . When I installed it on my trailer and JetSki the first time and did not overtighten it at all, it appeared that the web strap which is only 1" wide appeared to be coming apart from the main web strap. I think that I will be going back to the bungee strap that I had on it before.

        These are perfect for my 18' boat because they are so quick to attach or remove. Much better than the straps that came with the boat.

                Old tie downs would always get tangled after taking them off and were difficult to adjust. These go on in seconds and are super easy to adjust. No more untangling.

                  Comments about B Erickson Erickson Retractable Ratchet Tie-Downs (2-Pack):

                  The load rating online is stated as 1,500 pounds when in fact that is the break strength and load rating clearly stated on product as 500 pounds. Need to be more clear as I would have ordered the more heavy duty straps.

                      Push button to pay out and hook. Push again to retract excess strap, ratchet tight and go.

                                Neither, the load strength is 500 pounds as clearly identified on the product. Need to go to the two inch for $49 to handle that load.

                                As a recent purchaser of this product, I would say that the minimum (shortest) length where this can be used is about 14". I use it in an area of only about 16" to 18".
