DIXIE INDUSTRIES RATCHET BINDERS
Dixie Ratchet Binders are built to exceed the highest military and professional specifications, including CVSA Cargo Securement Guidelines, Federal Highway, and DOT requirements.
FORGED Dixie forges each ratchet component from pure alloy steel bar: Barrels, Handles, Eye Bolts, Hooks, Gears, and Pawls providing the strongest / lightest binder money can buy.
RUGGED BUILT HANDLE The handle is purposely designed loose using self-locking one-way bolts. This loose design allows mud, snow, ice or any other substance to be easily removed from the ratchet mechanism by striking with a hammer or other tool, even when below freezing.
PROOF TESTED To insure quality, each individual load binder, as part of the manufacturing process, is proof tested to two and a half times its working load limit.
GEAR Dixie ratchet gears are permanently welded to the barrel while many others are simply roll pinned. With our ratchet, there is no pin to fall out.
BARRELS Dixie Industries upset forges all our barrels which builds mass for deeper, more consistent threads that will not pull out. This provides constant contact for the Acme threads between the bolt and barrel. Competitive swaged barrels have thinner walls that do not allow for full thread contact. Swaged barrels are also associated with excessive barrel breakage when overloaded.
ACME THREAD Fastest take up, stays put, won’t back off.
MADE IN USA All our products are forged with USA, our name, product trace codes, and Working Load Limit (WLL), as required by many laws and manufacturing best practices. Dixie proudly stands beside you for the working life of our product.
