A ratchet-tension system for securing loads on lorries has been announced by Irvin Great Britain, leading maker of parachute equipment in the UK. The tensioner and webbing have a
working strength of 2i tons which is equal to that of a in steel chain, the lashing being designed to obviate damage to the load.
Irvin claims that the system is particularly suitable for securing heavy loads liable to damage from chains, such as cut timber, concrete pipes and concrete building frames. And it also has advantages for securing many other types of load including steel pipes, heavy electrical and mechanical equipment and structural steelwork.
