Vee Board Corner Edge Protectors and Tie-Down Strap Cushion Guard Bumpers for Flatbed Trailer Loads and Truck PalletsCargo tie-down chains, winches, and ratchet straps exert pressure that loads may be unable to safely bear. V Boards provide a simple and effective way of minimizing the damage to your goods and equipment. Made of durable hard plastic, they cover the edges of your freight to act as buffers for the straps. The stress of the tie-downs get redistributed over the boards, allowing the cargo to remain whole and undamaged and reducing the prospect of strap cuts due to strain and sharp load edges. 8" x 8" x 12" V Boards with 2 4.5" Wide Slots for Cargo Tie-Down StrapThis blue Vee board corner protector is ideal for covering loads of steel, lumber, and other solid loads whose sharp edges can easily cut tie-down straps. It is 12" long and extends 8" down on both the side and top of the load; its flexible size makes it perfect for cushioning the edges of mixed and uneven loads like cable spools and custom deliveries. This edge protector guard bumper is pliable enough to conform to the load's size and sturdy enough to withstand brutal cold and heat. It has a 4.5" wide slot on each side, allowing the tie-down strap to be threaded through for added convenience and ultimate security. With this V board corner bumper, you will never again need to fear crushed freight or torn straps. By minimizing the possible risks to your cargo, you demonstrate your reliability as a cargo transporter, and lengthening the lifespan of your straps can save you a bundle of money and energy over time. With a plastic cargo corner guard, you avoid the personal injury sharp edges can cause and you will satisfy your federal requirement to use an edge protection that 'resists abrasion, cutting, and crushing' in a case where 'a tie-down would be subject to abrasion or cutting at the point where it touches an article of cargo'.
