{"product_id":"ratchet-chain-binder-7100-wll","title":"Ratchet Chain Binder 5\/16\"-3\/8\" — Load Binder, 7,100 lb WLL","description":"\u003cp\u003eA ratchet chain binder takes the slack out of Grade 70 transport chain and holds it there. The gear-and-pawl mechanism tightens in small, controlled increments instead of the single hard pull a lever binder needs, so there's no stored-energy snapback to manage during tensioning or release. This binder fits 5\/16\" and 3\/8\" chain and carries a 7,100 lb Working Load Limit with a 26,000 lb minimum breaking strength, both stamped on the body. That covers steel coils, machinery, pipe, and other freight that needs chain instead of webbing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt closes from 33\" down to 24\", so there are 9\" of take-up to pull the slack out of a long run of chain. Hook both ends with the hooks backed out partway so there's room to work, then ratchet the handle back and forth until the chain is taut. Stop as soon as it's tight. Over-tightening strains the chain and the binder's gears without adding real securement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFMCSA rules require cargo of 10,000 lbs or more to be tied down at a minimum of four corners, so plan on at least four binders for loads that size. Chain settles into the load's corners over the first miles of driving, so recheck tension within the first 50 miles and again at routine stops. Need the same binder in a lighter rating? The 5,400 lb version runs 9.4 lbs against this one's 11.5.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CARGO CONTROL CENTER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44452637868279,"sku":"CB-LDR-39-CC","price":39.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/0246\/3479\/files\/Photoroom_20260721_121508.webp?v=1784657422","url":"https:\/\/cargocontrolcenter.com\/products\/ratchet-chain-binder-7100-wll","provider":"CARGO CONTROL CENTER","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
