Boat Buckle Pro Ratchet Transom Tie-Down Straps, 1 Inch x 3 Feet, 1200 lb Break Strength, 2-Pack

The Boat Buckle Pro Ratchet Transom Tie-Down (F18740) secures the rear of a boat to its trailer during towing. Each set includes two ratchet straps measuring 1 inch wide by 3 feet long, built with durable nylon webbing and a seatbelt-quality polyester strap for long-term reliability.

Ratcheting is made easier by molded SUR-Grip handles, which give a firmer, more controlled grip when tightening. Protective rubber pads sit under the ratchet mechanisms to guard against wear, while the strap connects to the boat with vinyl-coated steel top S-hooks that protect the boat's paint finish. On the trailer end, zinc-coated steel bottom hooks provide corrosion resistance for long-term outdoor use.

Each strap is rated to a break strength of 1,200 lbs with a safe working load of 400 lbs, giving a dependable margin of holding power for transom tie-down duty. The combination of corrosion-resistant hardware and heavy-duty webbing makes this set suited to repeated use in wet, trailering environments.
