I see folks advise to use binders on a trailer load quite a bit. I'd like to offer up my 2bits on them for securing a rolling/mobile load.
I only use one binder if at all possible. This due to the chance of them unlashing( the fewer possible problem the better). Example of hauling a tractor or truck. I always start at the rear. Period. A good solid chainup there has to hold all the load in a quick stop. The hooks should be oriented in a way that if the chain slacks gravity will keep the hooks connected. The binders only get used on the front and then only if I can tie the binder handle to the chain. Pulling all the load forward and binding will help ensure the binders don't come loose. Maybe not in reality but sounds good in my peabrain. If need be I'll add a strap binder under tension to keep it all snug. Think of what will happen when something may and act ahead to save your bacon. Loren.
