The same design can also be used to attach a trailer to its towing vehicle by chain or cable, or to secure gear below deck so it does not shift while underway. Each strap is built from stainless steel for anti-corrosive performance in brackish or saltwater environments, making this version suited to boats that see regular exposure to salt air and spray.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is a one-bolt, permanent-mount setup, and a mounting angle-adaptive design lets the hardware sit correctly regardless of the mounting surface angle. The webbing itself is two-inch wide polyester seat-belt-style webbing that self-retracts into the housing when not in use, so there is no loose strap flapping in the wind or catching underfoot. Each strap extends up to 43 inches and carries a break strength of 1,500 pounds and a safe working load of 500 pounds, and the set is sold as a pair for symmetrical bow, gunwale, or transom tie-down points.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Boat Buckle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e F14256\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Retractable Transom Tie-Down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e Up to 43 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWebbing Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWebbing Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyester\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBreak Strength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1,500 pounds each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSafe Working Load (SWL):\u003c\/strong\u003e 500 pounds each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 (sold as pair)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation:\u003c\/strong\u003e One-bolt permanent installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mounting angle-adaptive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Anti-corrosive stainless steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.04 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 079111142565\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eUniversal tie-down for boats and trailers at bow, gunwale, or transom mounting points;
