The Safest, Most Accurate Way To Secure A Load! Quickly and easily secure loads on ships and rail cars. Our patented Tensors are an ideal industrial tool for any tensioning or pulling application. Many styles are available. Tensors have a screw-type action with eccentric loading. By turning the drive head, the large tube telescope over the inner tube and pulls the anchoring points together.
Initial low tensioning or pulling (up to 1,000 lbs.) simply by turning the drive head by hand.	Easy tensioning with a common ratchet wrench.	Effortless, speedy tensioning with a powerful impact wrench.
