Transport Restraints

Transport Restraints

Transport Load Restraints are ideal for ease of lashing a load securely and safety.

High Quality Restraint lifting products are used for transport restraints. When transporting the truck or heavy vehicle there are some extra considerations that drivers need to be aware of to ensure that material will be load correctly or not.

Heavy Trucks carry more load than its actual capacity of Load. When a truck brakes, accelerates, changes direction or travels over rough road surfaces forces are generated on the load which are far greater than the friction between the load and the truck platform. The load will move if not secured and there is chance of accident.

Unless the load is secured by adequate restraining devices (chains, webbing belts, chocks, netting, twist locks etc),  THE LOAD IS NOT SECURE: The forces acting on a load during braking increase with the weight of the load and the heavier the braking (deceleration). It requires much greater force to stop a load which has started moving - like a Battering Ram effect - than it does to prevent movement (restrain) in the first place.  TIE-DOWN: Load restrained using tie down lashings, eg 50mm wide web belts. Lashings are tensioned to clamp the load to the deck. Friction comes both from load weight and downward force of lashings.  CONTAINMENT: Such as tippers, tankers. Load contained with no securing devices necessary, within the body of the vehicle or container.  BLOCKED LOADS: Loads can be directly restrained by blocking against vehicle structure example Headboard, or drop sides. Still requires additional sideways, rearward and vertical restraint.
