BoatBuckle Kwik-Lok Transom Tie-Down Strap, 2-Inch x 4-Foot, F13111
BoatBuckle Kwik-Lok Transom Tie-Down Strap, 2-Inch x 4-Foot, F13111
The BoatBuckle Kwik-Lok Transom Tie-Down (F13111) is a transom tie-down system used to secure a boat to its trailer during towing. Each buckle is rated for a 1,200-pound breaking strength with a 400-pound safe working load, giving trailering boaters a dependable, quick-connect hold-down point at the transom. The webbing is 2 inches wide and extends to 4 feet, made from durable polypropylene with a protective web pad that helps prevent chafing against the hull or trailer frame during transport.
Hardware is built for outdoor and marine exposure: the top hooks are vinyl-coated to guard against scratching gelcoat and painted surfaces, while the trailer-side hooks are zinc-coated for corrosion resistance. The Kwik-Lok buckle design allows for fast attachment and release at the boat ramp, so less time is spent securing the boat and more time is spent on the water. This tie-down is sold as a single unit in black.
