🔒 Erickson 34403 Blue 1-Inch x 6-Foot Cam Lock Buckle Tie-Down Straps, Pack of 2 Review

Good price for two. If you need to tie something in a tight spot, these straps are 8.5 inches from the end of the buckle to the end of the hook.

The best inexpensive cable tie with a cam buckle I've found (and I've tried many). The webbing is noticeably heavier than other budget buckles. I still think Ancra is the best, but it's a good alternative.

I wanted to save a few bucks so I decided to buy them. If you're buying an off-road bike, think twice. First of all, pay attention to the shape of the hook. This is an S hook, not a fishhook shape. Also, the hook is smaller than an ankar or similar tie. The hook fits exactly on my rented items. I suspect there are many handlebars that are just too wide (in diameter) for the hooks, although that wasn't my problem. I returned them.

Initial twisting of the lock is a real pain. Very difficult to accomplish. Once set up, the system works very easily. tighten. One button to unlock. I keep the 100 lb alternator in the back of the van (cargo basket hitch) so it can't hold a lot of weight. Just note that the traditional ratchet system is much stronger and can hold objects much tighter than this one. However, for what I do, this system is quick and easy (again after initially creating the threads) and basically gets the job done.
