I bought this rope ratchet for one purpose, that being, to help me secure the 25-foot overhead line (technically weed eater string) that I install every year to hold a Moravian star that we use at Christmas time. (I 've attached a photo of the ratchet which also shows the star in the distance, which is about 10 feet above the ground). Technically the star is located above a manger/stable, but this has been put away for the season. Even though the star only weighs about 1 pound, it has been difficult for me to stand on a ladder and exert enough force to make the line taught. This rope ratchet makes that job very easy. I'm glad I purchased it and would recommend it to other customers. I realize that it can be used for many applications.

These are great. I use them to hang ceiling lights when I'm working solo

I'm looking for a hand crank to hold a small sun sail in place. My choices seem to be this or a 2000 lb boat lift. When this arrived it looked like it would be too 'wimpy' but it seems to work fine. A simple solution.

Rope freighted on end won’t thread around pulley. Had to put glue on end of wait to dry so I could thread it

These are great little rigs. I actually used them with my tent rain fly to secure that and keep tension on it.They work great for their original purpose of securing cargo as well. Might be a bit of a hassle to store them if you’re not careful. I use rubber bands to keep the ropes neatly wound up so that they’re not all tangled when I want to use them.I was pleasantly surprised with the capabilities of these, and they’ve allowed me to add rope to my cargo-securing repertoire again. Lighter and faster than a ratchet strap when you have light cargo in your truck box that you don’t want to blow out.

'Rope Ratchet' like 'Coke' or 'Taser' has become generic for all similar products in routine conversation , but only these original design actual 'Rope Ratchet' brand devices made by Carolina North can be depended on to work properly and always...always...hold in place, imho... I currently have about 40 of them in sizes from 1/2" to 1/8" and almost never use any other tie down methods except the occasional ratchet strap when something needs binding, not just securing. I have never had one slip. I have never had one break. Each is well marked on the packaging for recommended load limit, which I have exceeded shamelessly at times, and still no failures. The junk sold at a freight place near the harbor can't hold a tiny candle to these. These cost a bit more, but you get more. The weak spot of ALL such devices is the rope eventually wearing from contacting rub points. I extend the life of the ropes greatly by simply padding the rope at rub points, such as utility trailer side rails, etc. I use either small rectangles of heavy cardboard wedged between rope and rub point, or when I'm at home and have it available I buy cheap rubber vacuum hose at wally mart, cut it to the length needed to cover the rub point, slit it lengthwise, then slide that onto the Rope Ratchet rope to protect it from sharp edges. That also works better than cardboard if anticipating wet conditions. Save and re-use the rubber pieces. Eventually, all things wear out, but you can buy individual parts for 'Rope Ratchets' - ratchet, hooks, ropes, and easily repair them yourself cheaper than buying brand new. I actually usually buy said parts direct from the manufacturer and build my own with longer ropes, except when they are out of stock on a size I want and I go to Amazon.

Just what I needed. I use these a lot and therefore will probably need more... Sort of a disposable item for me.. if they last a year or 2 great! It would not surprise me if I broke one...I abuse the heck out of these things and they have held pretty well in the past 5-6 months.. I mean its plastic and a small rope and a hook...If you stay with in limits will be fine!Quick Shipping!
