50mm Heavy-Duty Ratchet Straps

Master the heavy haul, South African tough.

WrapZilla 50mm Heavy-Duty Ratchet Straps are engineered for the most demanding transport tasks. These professional-grade tie-downs defy the harsh South African climate and tame the constant vibration of long-haul travel, securing your industrial cargo from departure to destination. 

Built for strength and durability

• High-tensile polyester: Our industrial-grade webbing is specifically crafted to resist UV degradation, chemicals, and fraying—essential for frequent cross-border hauls under the African sun.
• Superior leverage: Features heavy-duty steel ratchet mechanisms designed to apply maximum tension with minimal physical effort, providing a rock-solid hold.
• Reinforced J-Hooks: High-strength steel hooks designed to anchor securely to chassis points, trailer rails, and flatbeds without the risk of warping or slipping.

Understanding your limits: LC vs. Breaking Force

Safety is about knowing your limits. To ensure you and your cargo stay safe, we adhere to SANS 52195-2-2007 and EN 12195-2:2000 compliance standards.

• Lashing capacity (LC): This is your safe, allowable force for regular daily use. This rating specifies exactly how much weight the strap manages during a standard journey. Always choose your strap based on the LC for maximum security.
• Breaking force: This is the absolute maximum tension the equipment can endure before failure. The breaking force provides a critical safety buffer for unexpected shifts or emergency braking.

Choose the right Heavy-Duty Ratchet Strap for the job

We offer two heavy-duty configurations to match your specific industrial requirements, both available in 6m, 9m, and 12m lengths.

The 50mm 3-Ton Workhorse

The 3-Ton Workhorse is our specialist for large bakkie loads, automotive parts, and medium machinery. It features a compact short-handle ratchet, making it efficient for use in tighter spaces where a full-sized handle won’t fit. This grade offers a Lashing Capacity of 1500 kg (1500daN) and a breaking force of 3000 kg (3000daN).

The 50mm 5-Ton Powerhouse

Designed for heavy construction equipment, containers, and HGVs, the 5-Ton Powerhouse is the ultimate industrial tie-down. It is equipped with a long-handle ratchet for maximum leverage, allowing for industrial-strength tensioning with ease. This powerhouse provides a Lashing Capacity of 2500 kg (2500daN) and a breaking force of 5000 kg (5000daN).

Pro Tips

• Know Your Load: Check the WrapZilla tag to ensure the Lashing Capacity (LC) matches your cargo’s weight.

• Stay Flat: Lay the webbing completely flat to prevent uneven tension and strap damage.

• The 10km Rule: Re-tension your straps after the first 10km, or sooner if driving on rough gravel or corrugated roads.
