Lashing Capacity & Break Force Guide

Understanding lashing capacity and breaking strength is essential when choosing ratchet straps and load restraint equipment, but the terminology can be confusing if you’re not dealing with it every day.

  • What lashing capacity (LC) actually means in real-world use

  • How breaking strength (BS) differs from safe working limits

  • Why lashing capacity is the figure that should guide load restraint decisions

  • How to choose the right strap for your load with confidence
