BoatBuckle Kwik-Lok Stainless Steel Transom Tie Down Straps, 2 Inch x 2 Feet, 2 Pack, F12065
The BoatBuckle Kwik-Lok Transom Tie Down Straps (F12065) secure a boat's transom to the trailer during transport, working alongside bow tie-downs to keep the hull from shifting or bouncing on the road. Each strap combines stainless steel hardware with nylon webbing and a protective web pad, giving the assembly corrosion resistance for saltwater use while the pad guards the boat's gelcoat and paint from abrasion where the strap contacts the hull. The Kwik-Lok buckle allows quick tightening and release without the ratcheting or cranking required by other tie-down systems, and S-Hooks on the ends let the strap attach directly to trailer tie-down points. Each strap measures 2 inches wide by 2 feet long and is rated for a 1,000-pound break strength with a 333-pound safe working load, giving boat owners a clear margin for securing the transom under normal towing conditions. This listing is for a set of 2 straps in black, so both sides of the transom can be tied down as a matched pair. The stainless steel components resist rust and salt spray better than painted or plated steel hardware, making these straps suited to boats that see regular saltwater launches as well as freshwater use.
