Securing large, heavy cargo is quick and hassle-free with these ratcheting tie-downs that permanently bolt onto your trailer. Heavy-duty straps have a quick-release, self-retracting design for super-simple loading and unloading. 3,500 lbs Max load.
Features:
Specs:
Note: Tie-down straps must be chosen according to their safe working load limit (WLL). The weight of the secured cargo must not exceed the combined WLL of the straps being used. For example, if you are using straps with a WLL of 500 lbs each to tie down a load weighing 1,000 lbs, then you need at least 2 straps to safely secure that load. It is recommended that you always use straps in pairs.
CargoBuckle's third-generation tie-down straps bolt to your trailer and simplify the securing and unloading of your cargo. They have a self-retracting design, so there is constant tension on the strap and minimal ratcheting is required to secure your load. Dual safety locks keep the ratchet arm in the open or closed position, so the ratchet will not accidentally loosen or tighten up.
Instead of always having to find and store tie-down straps that hook to the anchor points on your trailer, you'll always find CargoBuckle straps right where you need them. Just pull up on the hook and strap, attach the hook to your cargo, and then operate the ratchet a few times. No more searching for a tie-down strap or dealing with extra webbing that flaps in the wind. And when you're ready to unload, simply push the release lever on the ratchet, free the hook from your cargo, and let the strap retract back down into the ratchet housing.
Using the included hardware, you can permanently mount the 2" wide ratchet straps to any flat surface. Or you can incorporate various adapters (sold separately) to use the tie-downs as either standard straps with S-hooks or as E-track straps. Angled brackets (sold separately) let you mount the straps at a 45-degree angle so that they are easier to access.

Securing large, heavy cargo is quick and hassle-free with these ratcheting tie-downs that permanently bolt onto your trailer. Heavy-duty straps have a quick-release, self-retracting design for super-simple loading and unloading. 3,500 lbs Max load.I mounted these straps on my 5x10 trailer. I love these straps. Work very well. They pivot making them very versatile, to hook to, and mount at different locations on the machines I transport. I installed with a very large fender washer between trailer and strap, with grease on both sides. Tight, but still moves. Not to loose to cause extra noise or problems. Only negative comment I have, is regarding the mounting bolts, washers and nuts. One package was open when I unboxed it, and all mounting hardware was missing. I purchased additional bolts, nuts, and washers, (stainless steel), and mounted the straps. I am awaiting a response from etrailer regarding this matter.
These straps are a big time saver, and more importantly, secure the load on my trailer better for peace of mind.
Excellent quality and great hardware included. I really like the retractable aspect and the nice firm and tight ratchet mechanism!! Far far better than a similar one I bought that was rated for 1000lbs!!!!! I’m very very happy with this product!!!

These devices are everything I hoped when I did my research. I have used them several times and they made an impression on the merchants to whom I was bringing devices for service/repair and the people helping me with loading.
The straps retract as advertised. I was a little concerned at first that the springs would eventually weaken and fail to retract but that has not happened. I don't use these that often, but they consistently work well when I do.
I had some difficulty locating them on my trailer. I positioned them with my UTV loaded, and should have spent a little more time with the location. They all work but the ratcheting handle is difficult to use because of some parts of the trailer frame. My fault. On the tail gate, I have to clamp them down with the gate lowered. I could grind out a bit here and there to address this but I don't feel it is worth the extra trouble and I don't want to introduce any structural weakness or sharp edges.
There are offset brackets I could have purchased but I opted against them. These straps have a rating for weight. So do the offset brackets, which is lower than the ratchet straps, and I figured I could only count on the lower of the two ratings. This was confirmed by someone at the company. I am probably being way too sensitive, and the offset brackets would have provided (my opinion) a better angle for the strap as it comes off the ratchet device. This is NOT a problem, just something I considered while doing my research.
I really love that I have these on my trailer at the ready whenever/wherever needed. I have also considered getting two or four more for the sides of the trailer. I often haul lumber on my trailer and the straps front and back of the trailer are not as easy to use for that. I hook them together crosswise and it works. With a 10 foot trailer and six foot straps, I'm at the limit of the straps as they are installed.
I was concerned about where to drill into my trailer frame to install the straps. I was afraid that this would weaken the frame at the attachment point because of the drilled hole. Tech support said this was not an issue. I'm not an engineer, but I try to consider everything. It has not been an issue for me.
My trailer has a 2x6 treated wood floor. This was a bit of an installation issue. I had to chisel out some of the wood at the attachment points for the bolt holding the straps onto the trailer. There was no mention of this in the write-up. No videos or suggestions. Again, I got it done and have not had to give it further thought.
Overall, I'm quite happy with the product. On the first contact, no one responded to my email for info. After that, I got quick response and an apology for the first experience. I had questions and they were answered quickly and satisfactorily.
I live in Northwestern Pennsylvania. Winters were a concern at first because these are exposed to everything. Weather has not been an issue.
I can recommend the straps without reservation and also the tech support for answering questions. I have had no issues at all. I would buy these again, and I may for the sides of my trailer. I don't have photos of the installation, but every one is going to be unique anyway so I don't think they would add much to this review.
Expensive, but well worth the money. This makes strapping my boat to the trailer soo much easier. High quality straps
Great product, use on 16' aluminum trailer to tye down polaris ranger, takes about 1 minute to do with these straps vs any other straps on the market, I use 4, two on front and two at back, Ranger 6 seater never moves. Ive have the same ones now,just relacing them and putting used ones on another utility trailer. I Highly recommend e trailer products. Delivered fast and on time again.
These are perfect to strap down a golf cart on a trailer. The short handle keeps people from going overboard on the tension and breaking things. This has been a real problem with some of our other tie down systems for equipment. My main concern was how these would hold up out in the weather on an open trailer. Well it's been over 4 years since I installed the first set and they still look and work great. I just got enough to do two more trailers making a total of five using these straps. I can't ask for more from a tie down. I just wish there was a stronger version for some of our heavier equipment.
These are absolutely the best straps on the market. So much easier than other products, and loading ATV on trailer takes less than half time. I’ve been very impressed.
I currently use them for securing my Kubota side by side, I always have 2 extra for emergency's...I do wish someone would invent a plastic cover for the buckle when the trailer is sitting out in the elements...
They are a great investment. Super easy to strap stuff to my rack without having to deal with loose straps. I love them.
Love this product. We can load our UTV in a matter of minutes with the cargobuckles.
A great investment due to time savings. Easy to use and fast hookup to tie down my subcompact tractor. I’m saving at least 20 minutes when securing my tractor.
Excellent product. Have purchased several. Can’t go wrong with cargo buckle.
Honestly the BEST straps we have ever owned! Rare to get excited about something like this but they really make securing our new Yamaha Rmax to the trailer so simple. We can drive on and have it secured with ramp up in less than 3-minutes. Looking for months and ran across these, glad I did!
These Retractable G-3 Tie-Down Straps are GREAT!! Very east to install and Operate. No more fumbling with loose straps! These Straps stay in place and they look Very nice on my Boat.
Just a bit of advice, I put sealant on the treads and on the bolt head to make it harder for someone else to remove.
Cargo buckles installed easily and are easy to attach and secure.
I have owned CargoBuckle since the beginning. The original ones lasted at Least 15 years. I have sent 3 sets of these to friends that haul UTVs or other items on a trailer regularly.
The new version is handier than the original. Love this product
Doug D - 11/11/2021They’re just okay I was sold on this product because of the retractable part. But of course one never retracted from the beginning and the other retracts sometimes.
Thomas M - 12/28/2021Replaced worn cargo buckles with this retractable ratchet tie down system. Works great! They are so strong they can bend the frame on our wheelchair lift. So once they are tight, pay attention to item you are securing, as cargo buckles are extremely strong!Perfect fit and arrive ahead of schedule. Thanks!!
Susan S - 10/17/2017Strap tore. Had to have it cut then sewn. Ordered second set of straps so I could have one repaired.Pic attached. 2nd strap is tearing. Pic attached. Not impressed with product. Use straps daily to hold ladder in place.
Victoria B - 01/20/2020Love them. So easy and fast to use. Removed while on trailer over the winter to try and make them last long but love these
I ordered a total of 4 CargoBuckles for my trailer. I absolutely love them, they make loading and unloading my Ranger such a breeze. One of the buckles never worked the same as the others often getting loose. I called the company and talked to the women that answered the phone (My apolgies, i don't remember her name), she was very apologetic that I had an issue and within 1 week I had a replacement for the bad buckle. This is how Customer Service is supposed to work. Thank you so much for standing behind your product.
Bob M - 09/01/2021These cargo buckles are great. I permanently mounted to ATV for loading on truck for snowplowing. They not only save time loading and unloading, they save me from messing with conventional straps in the snow and cold. I definitely recommend these for any application where you currently use conventional straps. I will be purchasing at least one more pair for other uses. Thank you!
The easiest ratchet strap I've ever used. I load the RZR and have it strapped down in less than 2 minutes. They are strong and no problems in the first year!
Great product! Makes securing my motorcycle
To the table lift real easy- no more tangled straps
Will buy more for different applications
Thanks Al
Excellent product. These work so well for the application I'm using them for. I've never had a problem with them releasing or holding like they should.
