Ratchet
lashings are used to fix the cargo while transporting,
shifting or moving storage. It being more secure, reliable
and much lighter in weight as compared to chains, wires
and jute ropes which were traditionally used, it has become
a more reliable method of securing all types of load across
an entire spectrum of requirements. It also offers a significant
advantage over steel banding, the latter being much heavier
and more prone to damaging the finished goods, it provides
a superior level of cargo control through high pre-tensioning.
Depending upon the loading requirements, the webbing of
the Lashing system is available in 25mm, 35mm, 50mm, 75mm
and 100mm. There are different types of ratchet systems which
are carefully designed and tested to exert the right amount
of pre-tensioning of the lashing. These are manufactures
as per the BS 5759 &
EN-12195:2000 standards. |
