Tie Down Engineering Trailer Frame Bracket 86567, 7-Gauge Galvanized Steel Ratchet Strap Mount
The Tie Down Engineering Frame Bracket, part number 86567, is a heavy-duty mounting point that lets you secure ratchet straps directly to your trailer frame. Instead of looping straps around frame rails or relying on makeshift anchor points, this bracket gives you a dedicated, purpose-built attachment that keeps your boat or cargo locked down during transport.
The bracket is made from 7-gauge steel, a thick-gauge construction chosen to handle the repeated tension and shock loading that ratchet strap tie-downs put on a trailer frame. It is finished with a hot-dip galvanized coating, which fully coats the steel in zinc to resist rust and corrosion from road spray, launch ramps, and general outdoor exposure -- an important feature for any hardware that lives on a boat trailer.
Because it mounts directly to the trailer frame, the 86567 bracket is a simple bolt-on upgrade for trailer owners who want a stronger, more permanent tie-down point than factory-stamped loops or generic hooks. It pairs with standard ratchet straps to hold a boat, ATV, or other cargo firmly in place while towing.
