(weigh scales) inspection center, the inspector will see the Web Sling & Tie-Down Association's label, the inspector knows the tie-downs are made by a bona-fide tie-down expert. And now a few words on safety form Erickson Check with your Sates D.O.T. Rules and regulations but the following safety guidelines should be sufficient

The basic rule, to ensure safety, is a 3 to 1 ratio must be used on any item moving in any direction where brakes are being applied and G-forces occur. It is the responsibility of the user to determine the number of straps needed to secure his load safely based on the SWL rule.

SAFE WORKING LOAD LIMIT (SWL) is one-third (1/3) of the break strength. EXAMPLE: 15,000 lbs. (Break Strength) / 3 = 5,000 lbs. (SWL)

NOTE: All Erickson Ratchet Straps and Tie Downs 5000 lbs. & up come with a label
showing size, maximum load and S.W.L (safe working load). Remember the S.W.L. is 1/3 of the maximum load. Always use the S.W.L. when selecting tie-downs. Example: A box weighing 3300 lbs., you would use (2) straps with a 5000 lb. max. load limit. The safe work load for a 5000 lb. strap is 1650 lbs. or 1650 lbs SWL

ERICKSON MFG. LTD. is a member of the Web Sling Tie-Down Association. All straps are sewn to the Association’s specs. All straps have the associations certificate sewn in, along with the maximum and safe work loads. HEAVY DUTY PROGRAM ONLY, STARTING WITH ERICKSON'S 5000 LB. STRAPS.
