Boat Buckle Stainless Steel Ratchet Transom Tie-Down, 1 Inch x 3.5 Feet, Sold in Pairs

The Boat Buckle Stainless Steel Ratchet Transom Tie-Down is built to secure a boat to its trailer at the transom, using high-quality stainless steel components down to the rivets and springs for long-term corrosion resistance in wet, marine environments. Each one-inch-wide ratchet strap uses durable nylon webbing paired with a protective web pad, which keeps the metal ratchet hardware from contacting and scratching the boat's surface during tie-down. The ratchet mechanism allows the strap to be cinched down tight and held securely, and the tie-down is rated for a break strength of 1,000 pounds and a safe working load of 333 pounds per strap. Each strap measures 1.0 inch wide by 3.5 feet long, and the tie-down is sold as a pair so both sides of the transom can be secured with matching hardware. Because the core hardware is stainless steel rather than standard coated steel, this tie-down holds up well to repeated exposure to saltwater, freshwater, and outdoor storage without the rust and corrosion that can develop on lower-grade tie-downs over time. It is a straightforward, durable choice for boat owners who trailer their boat regularly and want transom tie-downs that will not need frequent replacement.
