Description
Overview:
The Drop Forged Ratchet Loadbinder 5/16"-3/8" is a heavy‐duty chain tensioner for securing loads on trailers, plant, and agricultural or construction transport. Built from drop‐forged steel with a durable painted finish, it uses a ratcheting screw mechanism to draw chain tight with control and minimal kickback. Suits chain sizes from 5/16" (7.9 mm) up to 3/8" (9.5 mm), covering common tie‐down setups on recovery trucks, flatbeds, and site vehicles. A long 380 mm handle provides good leverage, while double hooks give a safe, positive connection to chain. With a breaking strength of 19,000 lb (approx. 8,630 kg) and up to 250 mm of take‐up, it delivers reliable clamping force for everyday load restraint. Manufacturer part number: 200 631.

Typical Applications:
Securing excavators, compactors, generators, and palletised goods on trailers; restraining building materials and equipment on flatbeds; recovery and towing operations; agriculture and landscaping haulage; general cargo control in warehouses and yards. Ideal wherever chain tie‐downs are used and precise, gradual tensioning is preferred over lever‐type binders.
