Product Information
Full details
The KARGO Stealth Ratchet Straps (SRS/LD) are designed for individuals needing a secure and straightforward method for tying down light to medium loads. Their primary benefit is the quick, sideways strap insertion, which simplifies the loading process compared to traditional ratchet systems. A potential caveat is their 400kg load capacity, which may not be sufficient for very heavy items. These straps feature 25mm polyester webbing, anti-corrosion coated components, a comfort grip handle, and a length of 4m, making them practical for general cargo securing.

FAQs
What is the difference between load capacity and break force?
The Load Capacity (400kg) is the maximum weight the strap is safely designed to hold during use. The Break Force (800kg) is the point at which the strap is likely to fail under extreme tension.
Can these straps be used for heavy-duty applications?
No, these are light-duty straps with a 400kg load capacity. For heavier loads, please refer to the KARGO Heavy Duty range (e.g., SRS/HD).
How do I clean the ratchet straps?
Clean the webbing with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry completely before storing. Do not machine wash or use abrasive cleaners.
What is the warranty period for these straps?
Information regarding specific warranty periods is not provided in the product details. Please refer to the retailer or manufacturer's official warranty documentation.
How many straps are included in the SRS/LD pack?
The SRS/LD pack contains two Stealth Ratchet Straps.
Can I use these straps in wet conditions?
Yes, the polyester webbing is generally resistant to moisture and the components are anti-corrosion coated. However, it is best to dry the straps thoroughly after use and before storing to maintain their condition.
Troubleshooting
Strap won't feed into the ratchet
Ensure the strap is inserted straight into the sideways slot. Check for any obstructions or kinks in the strap end.
Ratchet mechanism is stiff or difficult to operate
Check the mechanism for debris. Gently clean with a dry brush. Avoid forcing the handle if it feels jammed.
Strap slips after tightening
Ensure the ratchet mechanism is fully engaged and locked. Check that the strap is not frayed or damaged where it engages with the ratchet.
Components show signs of rust
While components are anti-corrosion coated, prolonged exposure to salt or harsh environments may cause minor surface rust. Clean with a cloth and consider a light application of a rust inhibitor if necessary. Ensure straps are dried thoroughly after use.
