Lifting Gear Products - Loadfast® Ratchet Assemblies
 |
Manufactured from polyester, these products are designed to resist wear and to grip loads efficiently. The straps apply pressure over a broad area and are therefore unlikely to cause damage to either sheet or load. Once tensioned the straps require little or no further adjustment. Polyester webbing is unaffected by weather, oils, grease and most chemicals. It is recommended however, that contact with strong alkalis should be avoided.
The 50mm restraint, commonly used for commercial applications is available as an endless assembly (LF1), or with D-Ring (LF2), Snap Hook (LF3) or Claw Hook (LF4). Each Loadfast Restraint is manufactured to BSEN 12195 Part 2: 2001. The larger widths (50mm & 75mm) are provided with two chafing sleeves to help reduce damage and wear to the webbing. Larger and Non Standard products are available on request.

Recommendations for inspection, safe use & maintenance.
Always ensure that sufficient Loadfast assemblies of the correct type, strength and width are used to secure the load. They should be attached to the anchorage points by suitable fittings. Ensure the sum of the strength of all Loadfast assemblies is at least equal to the load. As a general guide, 1 assembly should be used every 1.5 metre minimum.
Always tighten the securing system in accordance with the instructions, and use anti abrasion sleeves when securing loads. Corner protectors or pads are also recommended. Never tie knots in webbing, either to shorten or join 2 pieces of webbing together. Do not use levers or bars to forcibly tighten the ratchet as this may lead to damage in the ratchet, the webbing and the end fittings. Alterations or repairs to Loadfast assemblies should not be carried out. If a defect or any damage occurs to the assembly, withdraw from service and seek the advice of Certex.
