Transporting cars on trailers and vans places special demands on safety. Lashing straps play a decisive role here. Not only are they required by law, they are also essential to protect vehicles from damage during transport and to ensure road safety. These special straps, often referred to as lashing straps, are specially designed to securely and stably fasten cars to the loading area. The correct use of these straps is crucial to minimise potential risks such as vehicles slipping or tipping over, which could endanger not only the load but also other road users.
The role of lashing straps in car transport securingLashing straps
are an essential element in the logistics and transport of cars. They are used to securely fasten the vehicles to the trailer or van by stretching them over or around the vehicles. These straps are designed to withstand a high tensile force, which is essential for safety during transport. The use of lashing straps is instrumental in preventing movement of vehicles during transport. They protect the vehicles from damage caused by slipping or impact, thus helping to prevent accidents and damage. Correct stowing and securing with lashing straps is therefore a critical aspect that must be taken into account every time cars are transported on trailers and vans.
Types and properties of car lashing strapsWhen
transporting cars on trailers and vans, special lashing straps are required that differ in type and design to meet different requirements. These straps are designed to ensure secure fastening while protecting the integrity of the vehicle.
Car lashing straps are specially developed for loading and securing cars. They feature a controller or protective sleeve that is pulled over the tyre to avoid direct loading of the tyre and ensure even distribution of tension. These straps are ideal for use on car transporters and trailers as well as on RoRo ships.
Another example is the standard car lashing strap with a length of 3 metres and a width of 35 mm, which has a standard ratchet with hook. These straps are available in different colours, such as blue, and comply with the EN 12195-2 standard. They are equipped with a rubber protector that protects the vehicle and the straps themselves from abrasion and damage.
Car lashing straps are another variant that are specially designed for securing vehicles. These two-part straps have a width of 25 mm and a length of 2 metres, with a fixed end of 0.3 metres and a loose end of 1.7 metres. They are fitted with rubberised hooks to provide extra protection and grip and prevent slippage. These straps are available in white and are also manufactured in accordance with DIN EN 12195-2.
Use and correct attachment of tensioning straps for carsThe
correct use of tensioning straps is crucial for safety when transporting cars. Incorrect use can lead to serious damage to the vehicle or dangerous situations on the road. It is therefore important to follow a few basic steps when attaching the straps.
Firstly, check that the straps are not damaged, such as torn or worn. The straps should then be placed around the parts of the vehicle to be secured, such as the wheels. Make sure that they do not run over sharp edges that could damage the material.
When tightening the straps, make sure that they are taut but not excessively so. Excessive tension can damage the vehicle or overload the straps. The ratchet should be securely locked to prevent loosening while driving.
It is also important that the straps are fitted so that they secure the vehicle evenly and the load is distributed across all straps. This prevents the vehicle from shifting or tipping over during transport. The positioning of the straps should be chosen so that they effectively secure the vehicle without damaging sensitive parts such as the bodywork or paintwork.
Selection criteria and purchasing advice: Tensioning straps for car transportWhen
selecting the right tensioning straps for securing cars on means of transport, various criteria should be taken into account to ensure optimum safety and functionality. Firstly, it is important to select the correct strap length and width according to the size and weight of the vehicle.
Material and workmanship also play a decisive role. High-quality materials such as hard-wearing polyester ensure durability and reliability. Standards such as DIN EN 12195-2 are an indicator of compliance with safety standards.
Additional features, such as protective rubber coatings on hooks and ratchets, help to protect the vehicle. Choosing the right colour can also help to easily identify the
straps
on a busy van or trailer.
Common mistakes and how to avoid them when using lashing strapsWhen
using lashing straps to secure cars on trailers and vans, it is easy to make mistakes that compromise safety. One common mistake is insufficient tensioning of the straps. Straps that are too loose can cause the vehicle to move and possibly be damaged. Belts that are too tight, on the other hand, can cause damage to the vehicle or the belt itself.
Another mistake is incorrect positioning of the belts. They should be positioned in such a way that they effectively secure the vehicle without damaging sensitive parts such as the bodywork or paintwork. It is also important to check the straps regularly for wear and damage and to replace them if necessary.
Following this advice can help to avoid common mistakes when using tensioning straps and thus increase safety when transporting cars.
