i bought some cheap ones before with orange webbing and they were no good, the ratchet kept snagging up and i ended up binning them. maybe it was my technique, i dunno. anyway, please can someone point me to some good but reasonable priced ones? thanks fellas

Hmm, i'm going to need about 7-8 of something like this for next friday, i have 6 cabs and a pin to move in a luton

The ones you need are "Endless" ratchet straps.
Having a quick look at your link these looked a good price and are what you need.
Please don't hold me up for what quality they are as I don't know. I bought a few a while ago, good quality but around £8 a strap.

That ebay link looks like a winner on price. When I was looking a couple of months back the cheapest I could find were from here: http://www.theratchetshop.com/mini-ratchets-800kg-ratchet-straps-c-74_27_94.html

Yep good price :rockon:

A couple of ratchet tips ..which I'm sure you all know...

Always put some padding/cardboard etc between head and side rails to avoid 'denting'

If you are very precious about side/head artwork then place seem cardboard offcuts between strap and woodwork just before finally tightening. Over a long journey the straps can cause damage otherwise.

In need of a few myself to replace the ones I keep giving away with games.

Good value, excellent service.

no complaints, this is how they look when they arrive -


they're all one piece (no hooks or second part - hence 'endless' i suppose) and seem well put together, but i don't have enough experience to compare them to other brands. i used a couple without them binding up, so i was happy enough with them. Matt Vince may have a more detailed answer, as i gave him one as a temporary replacement for the more sturdy looking one he delivered to my place wrapped around a machine.
