tie-down systems
Tie-down systems are arrangements of straps, ropes, or chains used to securely fasten cargo or equipment during transportation. They prevent movement, shifting, or falling, ensuring safety and stability on trucks, trailers, or other transport vehicles. Proper tie-downs distribute force evenly and are rated for specific weights, helping to protect both the cargo and people handling it. Effective use of tie-down systems is essential for safe, compliant transportation and prevents damage or accidents caused by unsecured items.
