Description of ๐Ÿ”„ Cargo Tie-Downs Strap Winder: Efficient Tool for Roll-up of 4" Wide Winch Straps in Trailers, Trucks, Warehouses, Docks, and Vans

EVERY TRUCKER KNOWS that keeping straps and other tiedowns organized is essential to keeping your business running smoothly. But how many of us have the patience to roll up those long and wide straps every time?. THIS STRAP WINDER is perfect for every truck and trailer operator, from amateur to professional. Whether youโ€™ve got thirty straps on your flatbed or just two sitting in your truck cargo box, you know that a strap winder will make it SO MUCH EASIER to work with your straps. SEE PICTURES for instructions. Just pull the loose end of the strap through the spool and fold the webbing over one spoke. Then hold the strap in place and begin turning the spool over the loose end. Keep winding around until the strap is rolled up and you can slide the rolled up strap right off!. INSTALLING IS EASY and doesnโ€™t include any hardware. Insert the threaded edge of the Z bar through the tunnel at the end of the winder and screw on the spool (spokes facing outward) all the way. Loop over a stake pocket or side rail that is up to 1/2" thick; bolt the securing bar until the winder is immovable. This strap winder can easily wind up WINCH STRAPS UP TO 4" WIDE. It is made of super strength steel and finished with a thick coat of black powder paint. With a weight of just 3 pounds and immeasurable benefit, this strap winder is a purchase you'll appreciate for the rest of your trucking career.

Great price for a great product!

I really like this product, this is the third I bought, not for brakes but for absent-mindedness. I've found that if you put some lube on them, it stops their annoying squeaking. In the future .

Pros
  • Good performance
Cons
  • There are flaws

Works great, buy these at the rest stop.

Works great, buy these at the rest stop and they always get tangled because the thread on the screw has slipped making it difficult to retract the belt easily. This one won't do because it has a 2 inch gap where the thread ends. Belts roll quickly and smoothly

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Not sure

Don't drive a pickup truck without it

We bought this for our son who started his career as a commercial pickup truck driver. He likes it very much. This greatly reduces the winding time of the tape. This gives him more travel time, which means more money. I think it has already paid off and he has only been using it for 1 week.

Pros
  • Permanent test results
Cons
  • Available in white only

How easy it is to use

If you use straps like other companies do how annoying the strap or straps you need can be tangled, twisted and snagged on everything in the box when you try to pull them out. With this belt winder, all these problems are a thing of the past. You just can't fit the straps by hand faster than winding them neatly. I wish I had bought a year ago. Absolute 5 star product.

Pros
  • Great construction
Cons
  • There are flaws

Broke after 3 weeks

Worked great for the first week then it started to squeak a lot which was very annoying. Then after about 3 weeks the part holding it to the trailer failed (particularly the welds) and now it's falling apart and completely useless unless it can be attached to the trailer. I don't know if I have a broken one or if they all need buffing but now I need to find a better one to buy because I hate hand winding straps.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not sure

Doesn't work on flatbed without a trailer

Although I don't drive an 18 wheeler, I'm still a Class A driver on a Ram 4500 with CM flatbed. I got this for winding straps, but the unit had two main problems installing it: it was too low so I had to bend down to wind the straps, and 2) the handle isn't wide enough to empty toolboxes, and I can't get away with it. As a result I will return it. Overall the product was easy to assemble and the material looked solid, but to me it's completely useless due to the issues it has.

Pros
  • Annual probationary period
Cons
  • Appearance

High-quality material on the tow straps

I am a truck driver and transport trailers with tarpaulins. I got a belt winder from my employer, the kind you find at truck stops, and the welds broke on the first try. I wanted one right away, but didn't want to pay truck yard prices. Found this one and am amazed by the quality. The metal is thick and really stands up to the rigors of shipping. The welding is also on top and not some inferior spot welds that don't hold the print well. Just in case, I'm considering buying another one, but notโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Updates available

What to look out for when using this handy little tool

This tool makes it easier to wind belts. However, it has some disadvantages: 1. There are no washers on the handle to limit movement from side to side, axial play of the crank, it wobbles and creaks a lot because it has no bearings. 2 would be nice if it had a pre-cut area for the tension nut to keep the set screw from cutting into the spot reflectors. 3 When wrapping the webbing at the back, the metal edge will cut into the webbing, if it were slightly rounded it would be more comfortable forโ€ฆ

Pros
  • It's OK!
Cons
  • Expensive
