Every contractor, landscaper, or hauler knows the frustration of a tangled ratchet strap. Webbing gets bunched up around the mandrel, refuses to release smoothly, and turns what should be a simple task into a wrestling match.
That’s where the SpinFree ratchet strap brings something new to the table.
A Smarter Mandrel Design
What makes the SpinFree unique is its patented spin-free mandrel, which allows the webbing to release cleanly every time. No binding, no jamming—just a smooth unwind, even under tension. If you’ve struggled with traditional ratchets locking up or tangling, this design feels like a breath of fresh air.
It also features a self-contained webbing system, storing excess strap material behind the ratchet housing itself. That makes for a much cleaner setup—less dangling, fewer knots, and quicker deployment.
You tighten it like any other ratchet strap—but when you release, the webbing practically falls away on its own. It’s fast, simple, and a pretty clever innovation for anyone who ties down cargo frequently.
Our Take
This new strap design borrows some familiar elements, but combines them in a way we haven’t seen before. It’s designed to make loading and unloading faster, cleaner, and less of a hassle.
That said, we haven’t personally tested this strap in the real world, and we can’t speak to how it holds up under constant use, harsh weather, or bumpy terrain. But from a design standpoint, it’s one of the more interesting updates we’ve seen in the ratchet strap category in a while.
What We Use Ourselves
If you're looking for a solution that’s been tested over and over in real job site conditions, we do carry and recommend the ShockStrap. It’s a completely different kind of strap—built for high-impact hauling where keeping constant tension is key. Not as sleek as SpinFree, but rock solid when the road gets rough.
Bottom line: If your biggest issue is tangled straps, the SpinFree might be worth a look. If your main concern is staying tight on rough terrain—ShockStrap has earned its place in our gear bags. Here's the Shockstrap in action:
