Marine Grade 316 Stainless Steel Ratchet Straps

Choose the strap width based on the load, the item being secured and the available attachment points. 25mm stainless ratchet straps are a compact option for lighter-duty securing, 35mm stainless ratchet straps are suited to medium-duty applications, and 50mm stainless ratchet straps are the heavy-duty option.

The main difference is the strap width and load rating. 25mm straps are rated up to 500kg, 35mm straps are rated up to 750kg, and 50mm straps are rated up to 1500kg. Wider straps are generally chosen for heavier-duty securing or larger equipment.

Yes. These straps use 316 stainless steel hardware, making them suitable for yacht, superyacht and marine environments where corrosion resistance is important. As with all marine hardware, regular rinsing, cleaning and inspection is recommended, especially after saltwater exposure.

316 stainless steel offers strong corrosion resistance for marine use, but it should not be described as completely rust proof in every condition. Saltwater, lack of cleaning, contamination or harsh storage conditions can still cause staining or corrosion over time. Rinse with fresh water and inspect regularly.

Snap hook end ratchet straps are best for padeyes, deck eyes and fixed attachment points where a secure clip-on connection is preferred. They are a popular option for yacht deck tie down setups where the strap needs to connect securely to a fixed fitting.

Hook end ratchet straps are a versatile option for general securing points, hooks, eyes and suitable deck fittings where an open hook end is required.

Choose loop end ratchet straps when the strap needs to pass around or through an existing fixing point, such as a rail, pole, post, hook or suitable deck structure.

Endless ratchet straps are used for bundling items or securing loads where there are no fixed end points, hooks or deck attachment fittings. The strap wraps around the item and feeds back into the ratchet.

No. Stainless cam straps are adjusted through a cam buckle and are best for light-duty securing where ratchet tension is not required. Ratchet straps use a ratchet mechanism to apply more controlled tension and are better suited to heavier or more secure tie down applications.

Yes, marine stainless ratchet straps can be used as part of a suitable jetski securing setup. For complete deck securing systems, see our jetski tie down kits and universal jetski chocks.

Yes, they can be used for suitable tender securing applications when the correct strap width, load rating and end fitting are selected. For complete tender securing systems, see our tender tie down kits and universal tender chocks.

Yes, provided the padeyes and deck structure are suitable for the load and the correct strap end fitting is selected. Snap hook end straps are often used with fixed padeyes or deck eyes. Always check that the complete securing arrangement is suitable before use.

Attach the strap ends to suitable securing points, feed the webbing through the ratchet mandrel, then operate the ratchet handle until the strap is correctly tensioned. Do not over-tighten, and always check the strap is aligned correctly and not twisted before use.

Press the cam buckle, feed the webbing through, pull the strap tight by hand and release the cam buckle to grip the webbing. Cam straps are best for lighter-duty securing where ratchet-style tension is not required.
