The LockDown straps use polyester webbing, which holds up better than common polypropylene straps against abrasion, sun and water and stretches less. A rubber cover over the buckle helps keep it from denting or scratching the car or boat while you strap down.

Good to know
- Put a twist in any long section of strap that is not touching the boat to cut down on wind hum at highway speed.
- Check strap tension again after the first few miles, since boats can settle into the rack pads.
