Lashing rails are indispensable components in the world of load securing, providing a flexible and reliable way of securing loads in vehicles and containers during transport. These rails are available in various types and materials, with aluminium often preferred due to its lightness and strength.
What are lashing rails?
Lashing rails, also known by specific types such as airline rails, are metal rails that are installed in means of transport to provide anchor points for lashing straps or other securing aids. They are available in different shapes such as semi-circular, square or retractable and can be used in various environments including:
- Vehicles: lorries, trailers, motorhomes, sprinters and vans
- Industrial applications: On loading areas or in containers where heavy goods are transported
Installation of the airline rails
The installation of lashing rails is relatively simple and can often be carried out by the users themselves. The rails are typically mounted on the floor or on the side walls of the transport space. It is important that the installation is carried out in such a way that the rails are firmly anchored and the lashing straps or securing hooks can engage securely.
Lashing rails therefore offer a robust and flexible solution for load securing that can be adapted to different load types and sizes. In the rest of this text, we will look at the different types of lashing rails in more detail and discuss their specific applications and benefits.
Types of lashing rails and their applications
Lashing rails are available in different types, each designed for specific requirements and vehicle types. Each type offers unique benefits and is optimised for specific load securing needs.
Airline rails:
- Areas of application: Airline rails are particularly popular in the aviation and transport industries where flexible securing points are required. They are also commonly found in commercial vehicles and motorhomes where customisable load securing is required.
- Features: These rails are typically made from aluminium, making them lightweight and strong. They offer numerous attachment points along the rail and are often retractable to allow for a level loading surface.
Rod lashing rails:
- Areas of application: This type of lashing rail is often used in smaller vehicles or in areas where discreet but effective securing is required. They are well suited for car trailers or smaller lorries.
- Features: Rod lashing rails are narrower and often fitted with a rubber guard to protect the load from damage. Their installation is less invasive, making them ideal for lightweight applications.
Half-round and square lashing rails:
- Areas of application: Half-round rails are ideal to be mounted on the floor of transport vehicles, while square rails are often attached to the side walls.
- Features: Both variants offer robust mounting options and are available in different lengths to suit different vehicle sizes and load requirements.
Lashing rails are an essential component in logistics, not only improving the safety and efficiency of transport, but also increasing flexibility to respond to the diverse requirements of cargo transport. In the next section, we will go into more detail about the technical specifications and installation of these important securing systems.
Technical specifications and installation guidelines for lashing rails
Selecting and installing the right lashing rail requires an understanding of its technical specifications, which have a significant impact on the effectiveness of load securing.
Technical specifications:
- Material: Most lashing rails are made of high-strength aluminium, which offers high load capacity and low weight. Steel rails also exist and are recommended for particularly heavy loads.
- Length: Lashing rails are available in various lengths, from short sections for small spaces to long rails that can extend the entire length of a vehicle.
- Load capacity: The load capacity of a lashing rail is decisive for its selection. It is measured in decanewtons (daN) and should be matched to the maximum loads that need to be secured during transport.
Installation guidelines:
- Measurement: Before installation, it is important to accurately measure the area where the lashing rail is to be fitted. This ensures that the rail is neither too long nor too short.
- Fastening: Lashing rails should be mounted in places that allow optimum distribution of lashing forces during transport. This usually includes the floor surface and possibly the side walls of the means of transport.
- Tools: Simple hand tools are typically sufficient for installation. In some cases, however, professional installation may be necessary, especially if modifications to the structure of the vehicle are required.
Safety considerations
- Checking the fixing points: Ensure that all attachment points are solid and have no weak points while the rails are in use.
- Regular inspection: Lashing rails and their attachment points should be checked regularly for wear and possible damage to ensure safety.
The correct installation and maintenance of lashing tracks is crucial to ensure the safety and integrity of the load during transport. In the next section, we will discuss the many applications and associated benefits of lashing rails in various transport environments.
Applications and benefits of lashing rails
Lashing rails are essential in a wide range of transport and load securing applications due to their versatility and efficiency. Their use spans various industries and vehicle types, making them an essential tool for load securing.
Areas of application:
- Transport vehicles: Lashing rails are used in lorries, vans and trailers to securely fix loads, which is particularly important on long journeys or in uneven driving conditions.
- Logistics and haulage: In the logistics sector, lashing rails enable a wide range of load types to be secured quickly and flexibly, which improves the efficiency of loading and unloading processes.
- Private and commercial use: Lashing rails are also used in private cars, motorhomes, converted campers and smaller commercial vehicles to ensure the safety and stability of transported goods.
Advantages of using lashing rails:
- Increased safety: By firmly anchoring the load, lashing rails minimise the risk of the load shifting, which can lead to damage or accidents.
- Flexibility: The option of attaching lashing straps and securing elements at any point along the rail enables customisable and needs-based load securing.
- Durability and ease of maintenance: Aluminium and steel, the main materials of the lashing rails, are not only robust but also low-maintenance, which extends their service life.
- Easy installation and use: Lashing rails are relatively easy to integrate into vehicles and loading areas, which makes them attractive to many users.
These applications and benefits show why lashing rails are a critical component of modern load securing systems. They not only offer increased safety during transport, but also improved efficiency and flexibility when handling different types of loads.
Buying advice for lashing rails
The right choice of lashing rails is crucial to maximise safety and efficiency when securing loads. Here are some tips and considerations to help you choose the best lashing rails for your specific requirements.
Lengths and shapes:
- Customised length: Make sure that the length of the lashing rail fits your vehicle or loading area. There are lashing rails in different lengths that can be used flexibly for different space sizes.
- Shape of the rail: Half-round and flat lashing rails offer different advantages depending on how and where they are installed in the vehicle. Flat rails are often easier to install, while half-round rails can offer better force distribution.
Load capacity and intended use:
- Maximum load: Check the maximum load capacity of the lashing rail to ensure it meets the requirements of your specific load.
- Typical use: Consider what type of load you usually transport and choose a lashing rail that is optimal for the way it is used, for example retractable rails for flat loading areas or special rails for heavy industrial applications.
Installation and compatibility:
- Easy installation: Look for lashing rails that are easy to install and whose installation instructions are clear and understandable.
- Compatibility with accessories: Make sure that the lashing rail is compatible with other lashing rail accessories such as lashing straps, end caps and fittings that you already own or plan to buy.
Choosing the right lashing rail can significantly improve the safety and efficiency of your transport operations.
