I have the TSC ones and they do indeed have a WLL of 3300#.Anyone use these ratchet straps? With the sale price and 20% off coupons I can get the price down to maybe $13 but I'm not sure if these are the same straps often seen for $10 on sale at various places such as TSC. They all seen to be Chinese so how different can they be? I use them for a four corner hold down when I trailer my L4300. While one says 10,000 lbs and the other 3300 lbs, I think they are the same rating because the 10,000 seems to equal a working load of 3300 lbs. Go figure.

I'll add that it seems prices are really creeping up in price at Harbor Freight.

Did you have to do anything funny to get that to work? I got one last year and the clamp part doesn't seem to work.5 Function Digital Clamp-On Multimeter, with a 20% off coupon I found on the internet it was just over $10
Used it to get current draw amounts on 240v breakers in my box, so I would know what combinations of item's my generator will run at the same time.

mvwicker said:They are what I use to hold down a 2500 lb tractor plus 1000 lb FEL plus 600 lbs brush hog. I use 2 on the tractor, one on the FEL and one on the brush hog. I use all 4 straps even if the FEL or implement is left off, pulling in opposing directions. Nothing has budged the least bit in several trips, and this setup is sufficiently redundant so that if one strap lets go the other 3 have enough WLL to hold and prevent the load from shifting.
It has been a while, but I think they were about $10 each at HF when I bought them. HF has gotten more expensive just in the last year or two.
