This securing strap is perfect for my needs in the material handling industry .Through trial and error I found that it works great for securing heavy items during transit. The Velcro is strong and durable, ensuring the strap stays in place. The black color gives it a sleek look and makes it easy TO spot in my toolbox. The only con is that it can be a bit difficult to adjust the length once it's been tightened. Overall, a great industrial and scientific product..
