Can these be used as a standard tie-down, for example: can they be used to keep furniture secure on a utility trailer?

They can, just remember one end is permanently longer. Unlike other straps where you can tighten it down to 6" long.

Yes, they can secure furniture on a trailer. Would recommend getting longer straps. I secure a motorcycle on a trailer. (Harley Softail, which is quite heavy) The straps I bought work great for my use.

These tie downs can be used to tie any thing down, just remember, they are short, this is why I liked them and bought them

I would say yes. The difference in this ratchet tie down is the short non-adjustable side is longer than standard with a "D" ring sewn in. This is for wrapping around something and attaching back to itself. It works well. The hooks have safety latches making them little tight to just hook back into strap, but they will do this also. Nice tie-downs to me.

Yes, in my opinion they are more versatile than the standard hooked straps, and are less likely to scratch your cargo using the looped end.

I believe they can be used to keep furniture secure on a utility trailer. You can attach the hook to a O-ring on some other tie-down point on the trailer; or you can wrap the end of the strap around a convenient point on the furniture and then clip the hook to the O-ring on the strap while attaching the other end to the trailer. Keep in mind the strap is only 8' long, but yes; the strap can be used as a standard tie down.

I did not use them for that purpose so I can't give you a clear answer on that,but they are very durable and I believe they would work. Good Luck.

If you can drill the holes through the bed so that you use the backing plate it should work just fine. But you MUST use those backing plates for a tight connection so it doesn't lift off.. For the hooks I think it should be fine. I have used 2 hooks on one ring to tie down commercial equipment with no problem.. Also the trick is when you mount these hooks pre layout on the trailer what you need to tie down. Because you want to make sure that your hooks connect to the rings at least on a 45 degree angle. Something I learned from a friend that drives a truck and used to haul a lot..

i used them to steady my trailer but i don't think they will hold the front of a truck

yes absolutely. get 4 long enough 1/4 " anchor bolts you can lock with a nut and washer on the back side. you will have to drill a pilot hole for each. should hold just fine.

You could thru bolt a one foot piece of 2×6 to each side of the fence and then mount the holds to that. I suspect they may be a bit spongy as the chain link fence has some give but, it would work.

Sure you can use it for that if it is secured properly. Not sure why you would want to do that though. Remember the higher you go, the less weight the jack will hold.

There's nothing to secure them so I don't think you can. I would not recommend it as they are very heavy.

I don't see why not, as long as you don't stuff if with lead weights :-). In fact, I'm glad to read this as I haven't installed mine yet for the same reason. Also, my trailer is very small and this thing would take up some very valuable cupboard space, so for now I'm keeping it in a closet and taking it out when I need it in the "kitchen". Withe the command hooks, I could also move it when necessary, so thanks for the idea!

I do not use mine for this purpose. But I am sure they are plenty strong enough. I use these to lift beds off off of trucks they weigh a lot more than a person. These beds weigh from 350lbs to 600lbs. These straps are very strong.

Yes. Although i have not used them myself when moving the bike around in my garage. Using tie down straps is always a good idea for any lift

I am sure you could drill them and zip tie them. They definately need something like that if used on a deck. Keep in mind that they have metal rods between each section to hold them together. I was going to use them on my deck, but, decided to go get PVC fence section from Lowes instead. They were just too short for my use.

Probably would work provided the tools weren't too heavy although they are designed to bind electrical cords together to avoid tangling. I use them to wrap up the cords on power tools and small appliance as well as to manage the connecting cables for TV and DVD players, and computer cords.

I've only used them to hold a chair protector on a recliner chair but they have worked very well for me. I am no longer constantly having to readjust it every time I sit or get up. I imagine you could also use them to keep wayward sheets pinned at the bottoms and sides of a mattress depending on the kind of mattress you have. They are like tiny screws that go into the material and backing of the furniture to keep various types of covers in place. Hope this helps.

I bought some sectional clamps, but I haven't installed them yet. I don't think cable ties would work well bc the legs are so short. I used rubber pads on the feet as a stopgap; they seem to eliminate some of the sliding around.

Yes, the only problem would be how you put under the trailer....they are designed to be bolted on...you could probably put a flat plated or something on it.

I haven't used them in that regard but I would think they wouldn't be too successful. They're fine for keeping light things tacked together where no real gravity is applied. I would think keeping something like stockings up would be too much weight for the adhesive
