Winch bars are used with flatbed winches to add tension to a strap. This allows the strap to be tightened more than it could with a ratchet. Winch bars are especially important for situations where greater tension is needed such as heavy-duty cargo hauling. Ratchet winch bars simplify the tie-down process and are a useful tool for many flatbed trucking operations. Browse the winch bars we carry from brands like Ancra and Durabilt with several length options from 24 inches up to 38-1/2 inches.
