Abstract:
A tie-down strap tensioner maintains a desired strap tension on cargo when placed on a truck flatbed or sea transport. Tie-down strap tensioners are made of rubbery-type resins that remain compressive in the amount of hand applied pressure on the strap assigned to a given cargo container shape. The tie-down strap tensioner has at least three different embodiments: one is for round or radius corners such barrels, one is for square corners such as boxes, and one is for either or both round and square corners. Each tie-down strap tensioner has an upper surface and a lower surface and the lower surface has extending members that are compressive in amount of tension applied to the strap thus accommodates the shape of the cargo container selected which remains expandable to its original shape.

Claim (Index 1):
A tie-down strap tensioner, the tie-down strap designed for holding a cargo on a flatbed truck or a sea transport, comprising in combination:\n an upper surface over the cargo; a lower surface extending over the cargo, wherein both surfaces remain compressible and expandable associated with tension applied to the tie-down strap holding the cargo on a flatbed truck or sea transport during transport phases; and the tie-down strap tensioner substantially consist of a rubbery polymer resin, whereby the tie-down strap tensioner maintains a pressure on the strap and secures the cargo.
