BoatBuckle Kwik-Lok F12811 Bow Tie Down Strap, 1 Inch x 3 Feet, 1200 lb Break Strength
The BoatBuckle Kwik-Lok Bow Tie Down Strap (F12811) is a 1 inch by 3 foot loop-end tie-down built to secure a boat's bow to its trailer during transport. One end is a webbing loop that wraps around the trailer's I-beam or center tongue, while the opposite end carries a zinc-coated steel hook that attaches to the boat's bow anchor point. Tension is set and released with the Kwik-Lok buckle, which has a non-slip surface for quick, one-handed adjustment.
The strap webbing is seat-belt quality nylon rated at 2,500 lbs., giving the assembly a 1,200 lb. Break strength and a 400 lb. Safe working load. The strap is black and is made in the USA. IMMI, the manufacturer of BoatBuckle products, recommends that a bow tie-down like this one always be used together with a winch strap and a transom or gunwale tie-down for complete trailering security, rather than as a stand-alone restraint. It is compatible with ATV, RV, trailer, and watercraft applications and is sold as a single strap.
