Ancra’s gear drive tensioner

Feb 28, 2018

Ancra’s Gear Drive Tensioner is available in a 2-inch strap assembly with either flat or snap hooks to help secure specialized cargo such as bottled gases. The gear drive is designed to provide more control when tensioning the strap than a ratchet buckle, with the ability to be locked gradually in place every 1/28th of a spool rotation. The worm gear is engineered to self-lock against back-drive rotation, while the folding handle is built to lock the gear system and tension when folded over, with a magnetic detent to hold it closed.
