5 ft Vertical E-Track Rail — 12-Gauge Galvanized Steel

A vertical e-track rail gives you an anchor point that moves. The slots take any standard e-fitting, so a ratchet strap or a shoring beam locks in where the freight actually sits instead of where a fixed ring happens to be. This is the 5 ft vertical section in 12-gauge galvanized steel, sold one at a time. Suppliers spell it e-track, etrack and e track interchangeably, and it is all the same slotted rail.

Vertical e-track runs up the wall of a van or an enclosed hauler, which is what you want when the load is stacked and needs restraint at more than one height. It bolts on or welds on, and you run as many sections as the wall needs. The galvanized finish is there because the inside of a trailer sees road salt, wet freight and washdowns.

One thing worth knowing before you size a strap to it: the rail itself is not the rated part. E-track carries its working load limit per fitting, so the e-fitting and the strap you clip into it are what you match to the load. We stock e-track ratchet straps with e-fittings on both ends, and an adjustable aluminum shoring beam that latches into the same rail.
