Got stopped by the OK HP

I like electrical tape for extra strap. Holds fine and no residue. When it comes time to remove I can just grab the extra strap and yank and it'll break. No sharp tools near the strap like you need with zip ties.

 

I prefer a bungee, but yeah, I get the idea of a wicked sharp blade near those expensive straps. Cringe to the extreme. Don't slip!

 

I have reusable zip ties that I got from Cluck. They work good.

 

Did he mention a source?

 

I use duct tape on my 3" ratchet straps. No problems with residue. I usually leave a big enough loop that I can tear it off by just pulling on the bundled strap.

For the 2" straps I fold the excess and run it through the tail on the ratchet handle end.

 

Pony clamps work well.

If U have a small screwdriver U can hit the release and reuse em endlessly

 

Never understood using duct tape on strap tags. You can get a good 5 years out of a tarp strap if that's all you're using them for.

 

Huh???
