Long-Handle Ratchet 50 mm

Long-handle ratchet with double pawls and a wide grip – for simple but extremely effective tensioning of your slackline.

Available with built-in plastic reducers (spacers) for 25 mm or 35 mm slacklines, or without them if you tension 50 mm webbing. Spacers are also available separately as replacements or for further ratchets.

Includes a sewn-on, reinforced sling (approx. 25 cm, abrasion-protected). Sling colour usually black.

Who is this ratchet for?

The ratchet is the simplest tensioning system there is: thread it, move the lever, done. Depending on webbing and strength, it gets you to lines of roughly 25 to 30 m. The long lever is what sets it apart from hardware store ratchets, you need noticeably less force. The double pawls hold the load on two points instead of one.

For longer lines you need a pulley, for example the Ellington with our tensioning webbing. Which system suits which length is explained in Tensioning a slackline.
