Ancra’s 5/16-in.-3/8-in. EZ load binder makes loading and unloading with transport chain faster and easier. Made with heavy-duty steel and finished with electro zinc plating, the EZ binder can withstand loads up to 5,400 lbs and remain reliable for years after exposure to harsh conditions. The extra-long molded grip ratchet handle provides plenty of leverage for easy operation, swivel hooks make securing chain simple, and free wheel functionality allows for a quick take up to 12-in. during tensioning. To operate, simply attach chain links to either hook and pull the lever to tighten. The ratchet chain load binder accepts chain from 5/16-in. G70 up to 3/8-in. G43. Failure to follow all instructions may result in serious personal injury, property damage and loss of life. Observe the working load limits as noted below and on tags to determine the number of tie-downs and hardware required under federal D.O.T. FMCSA 40 CFR Parts 392-393. Use extreme caution when tensioning load binders to ensure chain links are seated securely in the hook before releasing tension on the load binder.
