1.5″ 35MM 2T/3T Aluminum handle Ratchet Tie Down Strap with double J hook
In the realm of securing cargo during transportation, ratchet straps play a pivotal role in ensuring safety and stability. These straps, with their robust design and ease of use, have become indispensable tools across various industries, from logistics and construction to recreation and agriculture. However, with safety being paramount in any application involving heavy loads, standards like EN12195-2 have emerged to set guidelines for the manufacturing and utilization of ratchet straps.
EN12195-2 is a European standard that specifically addresses the requirements and testing methods for lashing and securing arrangements using restraining devices like ratchet straps.
Strength and Durability: Ratchet straps must be designed and manufactured to withstand the expected loads during transportation. This includes factors such as the breaking strength of the strap material, the durability of the ratchet mechanism, and the integrity of load-bearing components.
Marking and Labeling: Clear and accurate labeling is essential for identifying the specifications and capabilities of ratchet straps. EN12195-2 mandates that each strap should bear markings indicating its minimum breaking strength, length, and manufacturer details.
Safety Factors: The standard outlines safety factors to ensure that ratchet straps maintain their integrity under varying conditions. Factors such as the angle of inclination, the coefficient of friction, and the method of securing the load are taken into account to prevent accidents and load slippage.
Testing Procedures: EN12195-2 specifies rigorous testing procedures to validate the performance of ratchet straps. This includes static and dynamic load testing, fatigue testing, and environmental testing to assess resistance to factors like temperature extremes and moisture.
