Description

Overview

The Load Binder Ratchet Dog 6mm is a tough chain tensioner for transport lashing. It takes up slack fast, so you can set tension with control. Use it with 6mm Grade 70 chain systems on trailers and carriers. It also suits jobs where a lever binder has limited swing. Because the handle works in smaller arcs, it helps in tight deck spaces.

Features

• Ratchet action for steady tensioning, even in tight spaces.
• Supplied with Grade 70 chain and two winged grab hooks.
• Swivel winged hooks cradle the chain, so links stay supported.
• Short reach hooks for better take up on shorter lashings.

Compatibility and Fitment

This Load Binder Ratchet Dog 6mm suits 6mm transport chain and winged grab hooks. Fit the hooks so the chain sits in the cradles. Then tension the system until slack is removed. If you need more take up, wind the hooks in before final tensioning. Also confirm your anchor points meet the required capacity.

Compliance and Safety

Always use this ratchet dog within the rated lashing capacity. Because ratchet binders store energy, release tension slowly and with control. Inspect the binder, chain, and hooks before each use. If you see bent links, cracks, or heavy wear, replace the damaged parts. For best results, keep the Load Binder Ratchet Dog 6mm clean and lightly lubricated at the pivot points.

Trailer Applications

Use this ratchet dog on flat tops, drop decks, floats, and skel trailers. It suits machinery tie downs, steel restraint, and general freight where chain lashings are preferred. It also works well on short runs where you need extra take up. If you run multiple lashings, use the same chain grade and size across the set.
