Rhino USA Retractable Boat Trailer Tie Down Straps 2PK – Durable (2in x 43in) Trailer Mount Transom Straps for Boat, Jet Ski – Powder Coated Black Steel – Fresh Water Compatible

Junk

These straps speed up launching and trailering my boat tremendously. They are much quicker and easier than removable straps. They appear to be of good quality. Rhino USA is an American company and claims this product has a lifetime warranty. The bolts supplied to mount the strap were much too long. I had to buy hardware for mounting on my trailer. If your trailer is made from channel iron rather than square tubing you will likely have to do the same. I would definitely recommend these straps to anyone.

Purchased the powder coated version 2 years ago, and the gears, springs, and assembly got extremely rusted and corroded during that time. I did use this in a saltwater environment, but the product advertisement at that time stated that the powder coated version would hold up to the marine environment. Buying the powder coated model instead of stainless steel was a big mistake. Powder coated version began rusting almost immediately, and completely failed after 2 years. I thoroughly washed these with freshwater after every trip. I removed these from my trailer today, and went with a different brand that is stainless steel (BoatBuckle G2 Stainless Steel). I'm still planning on spraying the gears of the new tie down with a waxy spray coating to prevent rust and corrosion (Yamalube Yamashield). I like the new tie down vs the Rhino model, because the release mechanism is easier to engage and the strap auto retracts when released. The Rhino tie down doesn't auto retract ... instead you have to pull the gear handle and keep cranking the gear until fully retracted. It takes 30 seconds or so to do it (on each side) and it makes a lot of noise. New straps are a breeze and much quicker. Also, the release mechanism on the Rhino tie down was a bit clunky. You have to press the green button and push in the gear handle all the way down, then it releases the strap. However, sometimes it was a hard to get it to release. The new BoatBuckle tie-down has big Release buttons and they are easy to push down and release the strap.

The Rhino USA Retractable Boat Trailer Tie Down Strap is exactly what I needed for securing my boat. The retractable design is incredibly convenient—no more tangled or messy straps—and the mechanism works smoothly every time. The strap itself is heavy-duty, with strong stitching and a solid hook that gives me confidence my boat stays secure during transport. I also appreciate how compact it stores when not in use. Installation was simple, and it fits perfectly on my trailer. Overall, this tie-down strap is durable, reliable, and makes hauling my boat so much easier. Highly recommend!

I have so many sets of ratchet straps because I would rather buy new ones than try to figure out how these things work, but these retractable straps have been a life saver for me! I absolutely love them and they are blonde proof! 😅 They also make great gifts for the men in your life. My dad and brothers love them just as much as I do! Easy to use, with clips on the ends so no need for a second person to keep the strap stable. The value of these straps are worth it for me because it’s saved me from buying anymore that just get tangled up and tossed around.

easy to operate and easy to install.

Easy install and quick way to secure a boat.

I bought this set in August and have used them probably 10 times that rachet down fine. But they don't like to retract. Had some other brand on 2012 bass boat no problems at all.
