Nite Ize Dual CamJam Tie Down System - Ratchet Straps - Straps for Trucks & Cars - Luggage Strap for Camp Gear - Tie Down Moving Supplies - 12 ft, Black

Seemed like a goofy consumerist purchase given anyone can tie something down, but I am super pleased with it. Appears to be high quality and should last many several years (I purchased to replace another cam strap that broke after two years). Revolutionized securing down lumber or a canopy tent to my roof rack, especially when I don't have somebody on the other side of the car to toss the loose end back to me. Doesn't require much effort to cinch really tight. Not hard to replicate with a rope and trucker's hitch, but worth it for anyone without a fondness for knots but who has to regularly lash down a canoe.

I love this compared to traditional tie downs. The buckle can be located precisely to out of the way locations. Its amazing how much tension you can get on these, I would say almost equal to some ratchet straps. Worth the money, I'm going to buy the longer one next.

Easier to operate than standard ratcheting tie downs!

I have used it as a cloths line, used it to help moving a rusted washing machine. Haven't had any vehicle or major uses as yet. I enjoy the weight and compact nature which is why this is apart of my backpack and daily commute. It is easy to use and like I stated above it can be used for more than just holding things to vehicle.

Big fan of these straps for tieing canoe to roof racks.

This is as advertised and exactly what I needed to easily tie down objects in my truck. Would recommend and purchase again.

The loop at the end of the strap was a great idea.

i return my malone straps because it came lose and this dual cam jam secured my cargo. so i got 1 more
