Load Hugger BASICS

Load Hugger cargo control and load securement products are of the highest quality. They offer the van and
flatbed operator a wide variety of options to meet Department of Transportation and CVSA requirements.*
Features, Advantages and Benefits Department of Transportation Regulations 393, 102(b)
use Ultimate Breaking Strength to calculate the number
of tiedown assemblies required to secure a load.
Promotes Safety
• Flexible, conforms to and controls the load
We publish Ultimate Strength for this purpose only.
For safety, we recommend that only Working Load
Limits be used for your calculations.
• Ratchet assembly allows easy adjustment
• All hooks and chain assemblies equal or exceed
   strength of webbing
Environmental Considerations
• Meet all DOT (Department of Transportation)
   and CVSA (Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance)
   regulations.
• Nylon and polyester are seriously degraded at
   temperatures above 200° F.
• Prolonged exposure to Ultraviolet light adversely
   affects nylon and polyester. Tie down straps become
   bleached and stiff when exposed to sunlight or arc
   welding.
Saves Money
• Soft and wide - does not damage costly cargo
• Large selection - choose the capacity that’s right for
   the load carried
• Many acids, alkalis and chemicals have an adverse
   effect on nylon and polyester.
Saves Time
• Light weight, easy to handle
WARNING: These products may contain chemicals
known to the State of California to cause cancer and/
or birth defects or other reproductive harm.
• Large selection of end fastenings, winches and
   ratchets make choosing and using the correct
   assembly easy
Safe Operating Practices
Inspection Criteria
• Inspect tie down straps and all hardware when load
   is first being secured.
Remove from service if any of the following are
visible:
• Re-tighten tie downs periodically during run.
• Cuts, holes, surface abrasion or crushed areas
• Never use Load Huggers for anything other than
   securing cargo. Do not use for lifting loads or towing
   vehicles.
• Burns or chemical damage
• Separation of load carrying stitch pattern
• Hardware, fittings or tensioning devices which are
   broken, bent, twisted, cracked, or have nicks and
   gouges
• Load should be securely blocked and stabilized
   before tensioning the straps.
• Never exceed rated capacities.
• Knotted webbing
• Use caution when tossing straps and chain anchor
   assemblies over a load.
• Splices or other makeshift repairs
• Damaged loop ends
• Check installation of portable winches - ratchet pawl
   must be at top of toothed wheel and bolts tight against
   the rub rail.
Definitions
Working Load Limit: The maximum load that may
routinely be applied to an assembly or component in
straight tension.
• Weld-on winches should not be cracked.
• Corner protectors and wear pads should be used to
   protect Load Huggers from sharp edges and abrasion.
Ultimate Strength: The load at which an assembly or
component will fail in testing.
• All hardware must be in line with direction of pull to
   achieve full strength.
