Steel Coil Securement

4 coils for 45k, will most likely all be around the 11k mark each. Make sure you put 2 chains each on them. I've seen some fellas throw a strap thru the center, then a chain on either side of that. Personally, I think the strap is a waste, but if it makes you feel better, go for it.

 

Straps.

 

I would use straps to secure them. Usually, the 'eye to the sky' coils are finished product. I'd strap them. Chains are better for the big shotgun and suicide coils, but eye to the sky, strap em.

 

What you have in the picture are coil belt/strips.
These go between your lumber and the coil.
You said you have 8, that’s fine, use two per coil.

Your chains, I would use one chain straight through the eye, pulling down on every coil, then one chain on each of the front 2 pulling back about 45 degrees, then one chain each on the back 2 pulling forward.

you can run the chain around a stake pocket. You could go around one spool and up inside a stake pocket. I don’t like using 2 spools, the chain can spin/slide on them.

 

This is true, vertical or eye to sky, straps work best.

 

Horizontal is flat to the deck. It could be shotgun or suicide.

Vertical would be eye to the sky.
