TRANSPORT CHAIN & BINDERS
Chain load binders come in different types, but they generally consist of a lever, ratchet, or cam mechanism that is used to tighten the chain and create tension. The chain is then secured in place with a locking mechanism, such as a grab hook, clevis, or slip hook.
There are two main types of chain load binders: lever binders and ratchet binders. Lever binders use a lever to tighten the chain and create tension, while ratchet binders use a ratcheting mechanism to tighten the chain. Cam binders are another type that use a cam mechanism to tighten the chain.
Chain load binders are commonly used in the transportation industry, particularly in the trucking and cargo industries, to secure heavy loads on flatbed trailers, boats, or other types of cargo carriers. They are also used for securing loads on construction sites, in agricultural settings, and in other industries that require heavy-duty cargo securing.
It's important to choose the right type of chain load binder for your specific application, and to use them properly to ensure that your cargo is safely secured during transport. It's also important to regularly inspect your chain load binders for any signs of wear or damage, and to replace them if necessary.
