Abstract:
A strap securing device and method for securing a free end of a strap to a metallic surface including an upper jaw, a lower jaw, and a leverage arm is disclosed. One of either the lower jaw or the upper jaw has a jagged contour and a magnetic surface. The upper jaw and the lower jaw are secured together through the leverage arm, which pinches the free end of a strap between the upper and lower jaws. The magnetic surface allows for attachment of the strap securing device to a metallic surface, such as the surface of a truck bed.
