Ratchet 50mm / 5000kg Iron Zinc (Shorte Handle)

Ratchet 50mm / 5000kg Zinc-Plated Steel with a short handle is a metal tensioning mechanism for tightening and securing lashing webbing. By operating the handle, the webbing is wound around the spindle and tensioned in a controlled manner.

The zinc-plated version is suitable for 50mm webbing and has a specified breaking strength of 5000kg.

Applications

This ratchet is used for trucks, trailers, transport structures, truck tarpaulins and industrial fastening systems.

The short handle is practical where operating space is limited, for example close to a frame or another structural component.

What should you consider?

Check that the 50mm webbing width and 5000kg breaking strength match the intended application.

The specified breaking strength is not automatically the permitted lashing capacity. Actual load capacity depends on the complete lashing strap assembly.

The short handle provides less leverage than a long-handle version. Also check the required pretension and available operating space.

Processing and use

Attach the lashing webbing to the ratchet using a suitable stitched connection and thread the free end through the winding spindle.

Pull excess webbing through manually, then operate the handle to tension the webbing.

After processing, check the webbing routing and locking mechanism.
