Car Lashing System

No.4150

The H-Lift Car Lashing System for Ro-Ro vessels secures vehicles from four points to prevent movement during maritime transit. This EN 12195-2 compliant system features 25mm wide webbing (2-3m lengths) in blue, orange, or yellow, with PVC-coated steel buckles and hooks to protect vehicle finishes.

  • 25mm webbing width, 2-3m lengths
  • Lashing capacity: 750daN or 1000daN
  • Assembly breaking strength: 1.5T/2.0T (SF 2:1)
  • PVC-coated steel buckles and hooks
  • EN 12195-2 certified for marine safety
  • Technical Data

  • What is Car Lashing System

This specialized Car Lashing System is designed for the secure transport of vehicles on Roll-on/Roll-off (Ro-Ro) vessels and ferries. Unlike standard cargo straps, these are engineered to fit through car wheel spokes (25mm width) while providing robust holding power (up to 2 Tonnes) to withstand the dynamic pitching and rolling of the sea.

Ro-Ro Vehicle Lashing Application
🚗 Vehicle Protection

The steel hooks are specially PVC-coated to ensure they do not scratch or damage alloy wheels or the vehicle chassis during transport.

💪 Compact & Strong

Despite the narrow 25mm width (designed to fit wheel spokes), the system offers a Breaking Strength of up to 2.0 Tonnes.

☀️ High-Strength Webbing

Made from 100% Polyester (PES) webbing that resists UV radiation, salt water spray, and oil—essential for marine environments.

✅ Certified Compliance

Fully tested and manufactured in accordance with EN 12195-2 standards for load restraint assemblies.

Usage Guide: 4-Point Lashing System

For maximum stability on ship decks, industry standards recommend securing vehicles from four points:

  1. Prepare: Use 4 separate lashing straps per vehicle.
  2. Attach: Loop one strap through each of the vehicle's four wheels (or attach to designated tow eyes).
  3. Anchor: Secure the hooks to the deck's lashing points (star/cloverleaf sockets or D-rings).
  4. Tension: Tighten straps evenly using the ratchet buckles to slightly compress the suspension, preventing "bouncing" during transit.

A car lashing system (or vehicle tie-down system) is a specialized set of equipment designed to secure vehicles on transportation platforms such as trailers, trucks, flatbeds, and ships. Its primary purpose is to immobilize the vehicle, preventing shifting or damage caused by the dynamic forces of transit.

Key System Components

🎗️ Ratchet Straps

Heavy-duty webbing straps with a mechanical ratcheting mechanism. They secure the vehicle by looping around tires, chassis, or designated tow eyes to create high tension.

🕸️ Wheel Nets

Specialized basket-style straps designed to cup over the vehicle's tires. They are often used in combination with ratchet straps to hold the wheels firmly to the deck.

⚓ D-Rings / Anchors

Hardware installed on the transport platform (trailer/ship deck) that serves as the strong connection point for straps and chains.

🔗 Lashing Chains

Used for heavy-duty vehicles or rough conditions where webbing might abrade. Chains offer superior tensile strength and durability.

🛡️ Soft Tie Extensions

Padded loops used to create a connection point on the vehicle (e.g., around handlebars or axles) without scratching the paint or finish.

⚙️ Ratcheting Tensioners

The mechanical device used to apply force to the strap or chain, ensuring the vehicle suspension is compressed and the load is immovable.

🪝 Hooks / Connectors

Attachments at the end of straps (e.g., J-Hooks, S-Hooks, C-Hooks) that connect the lashing system to the anchor points.

⚠️ Safety & Usage Guidelines

Proper Tensioning is Critical:

  • Avoid Over-tightening: Excessive force can damage the vehicle's suspension, chassis, or the lashing equipment itself.
  • Avoid Under-tightening: Loose straps can lead to instability, allowing the vehicle to bounce or shift, potentially causing accidents.

Regulatory Compliance: Always comply with relevant safety regulations (such as EN 12195) and use equipment rated for the specific weight of the vehicle. Different vehicle types (cars vs. heavy trucks) require specific lashing techniques.
