Chained ???????

Posted by Ohio Puller on September 20, 2005 at 19:02:32 from (152.163.101.7):

Just thought I would do a little follow up just in case any body interested. Spent about 3 hours in federal cargo securement regulations, as other regulations. Section 393.130 says minimum 4 tiedowns 10,000lb or over. Section 393.128 says under 10,000lb minimum 2 tiedowns. Now these sections cover equipment, tractors, ect. Nowhere could I find it to say anything about tiedowns except they had to be able to handle the G fource of the load and be above the WLL to handle load. Nowhere could I find anything that said tiedowns had to be chains and binders let alone just rachet binders. For my own tractors I'm going to secure with 3\8 grade 70 chains and grade 70 rachet binders just to be safe and keep the law happy.
