Description
Our 18’ ShockStrap Ratchet Safety Strap has an industry leading 2 year warranty and a breaking strength of over 4600 lbs. The Ratchet Safety Strap is built with a commercial grade ratchet, 2” black Polyester webbing, integrated soft ties, double steel hooks, and our unique flexible ShockStraps.
We incorporated a Safety Strap on one side of the ShockStrap for two very important reasons: first, if a catastrophic accident happened and the ShockStrap were to break, the Safety Strap would keep the tie down tight and your load secure; second, the Safety Strap also acts as a limiter so you won’t over-tighten or put undue stress on your load.
Our 2” Polyester webbing has a 5000 lb breaking strength and the overall Ratchet Safety Strap has a 1533 lb working load limit. The commercial grade ratchet has an outside release for ease of use even with gloves on. It is bolted on so you can replace it in the future and keep your investment working. We continue to use Polyester webbing because it has superior attributes, it stretches less, is more resistant to rot and mildew, has a higher strength rating and a softer feel in your hands.
We doubled the hooks and added a yellow zinc chromate finish which offers better weather resistance and durability compared to standard chrome plating. Next to each hook there is an integrated soft loop to use when the hook won’t fit. You can wrap the soft loop around an axle or handlebar and pull it tight against the hook.
ShockStraps are made from a proprietary formula and are not affected by most chemicals, sunlight, oil, salt water, fungus or moisture. The strength of our product comes from the ability of the ShockStrap to maintain constant pressure on the strap when hitting bumps or having side pressure applied to it. You won’t be pulling over every 50 miles or at a gas station break to retighten ShockStraps.

We have been using ShockStraps for a few months now securing RZR’s, Rangers, General’s, ATV’s, ACE’s in our show semi’s and so far have had great success with them. When the drivers arrive the units are right where they secured them resulting in big savings not having damaged units.

I thought you would like to know your new straps are a winner. I just took my 74 Bronco on a flat bed to Moab and it is the first time I didn’t have to pull over and ratchet my straps at least once while driving. I have to admit I was nervous since you don’t have a clip on your hook but you said they don’t come loose and I didn’t need it. I don’t think I ever had a trip with my old straps where I didn’t pull over and retighten them. I know I will be using these for years!

I ordered the straps long before you had them in production. We already had 4 of your first ones and love them. But in January 16 or thereabouts. I received my 2 9′ straps. You had my card for a few months before using it. The straps are the next best thing to being perfect. I just ordered an 18 foot strap for just to have a longer web Keep up the good work, you have the best strap setup out there.

I picked up my Shockstrap at the Fort Worth Hunters Extravaganza in 2015. Was very impressed by product demo. so I bought one for my Yamaha Viking. I use one 18′ 2″ strap running over the floorboard. We travel lots of rough roads to and from our camp. I never have to worry or check to see if the strap is on. Once you ratchet it down, you don’t have to worry about the hooks coming loose or getting any slack in the strap. I’ve recommended Shockstrap to everyone I know that hauls ATVs/UTV’s. Great product and great staff. Have spoken to the several times at Hunters Extravaganza and DSC. Super friendly and helpful. Just an outstanding product.
