Types of Chain Binders for Sale, Lashing/Load Chains and Binders

Chain Binder or Load Binder — these two terms are often used interchangeably. A chain tensioning device used to bind, clamp, anchor, or tie down large cargo loads for transport is what a binder is. Our range of lashing chains and binders includes high-quality ratchet load binders for sale, available in both standard and customized sizes to meet specific load requirements.

The ratchet chain binder device uses a ratcheting action to tension the chain and secure cargo. It provides powerful load binding and the ratcheting motion of the binder easily draws the ends together, providing maximum tension with minimal effort. We also carry AS4344 ratchet load binders, EN12195-3 G80 ratchet load binders. The lever load binder device, on the other hand, uses a leverage action to tighten and secure loads. With a tension hook on each end, this load binder requires more strength to tighten than ratchet binders. For specialized applications, our hand wheel load binder can be used as a wire rope or chain accessory in offshore oil engineering, lifting tugboats, and other extreme environments. Additionally, a tension lashing lever is commonly used for binding containers, vehicles, and other goods during shipping, making it an essential tool in logistics and transport. As a leading supplier of lashing chains and binders, we offer a wide range of options. Contact us today to learn more about our full range of chains and binders for sale and find the perfect solution for your cargo securing needs.

How to Choose Chains and Binders for Sale?

When selecting chains and binders for sale, the first step is to choose your preferred style of chain binder — either a lever load binder or a ratchet load binder. Both types have their specific advantages depending on the application. If you're looking for ease of use and safety, ratchet binders for sale are generally the better option. However, if you're aiming for a more economical solution, lever load binders for sale may be the right choice.

Size

Once you have decided on your preferred style, it is time to decide on the size. Both types are designed to fit the specified sizes of Grade 80, Grade 70 and Grade 43 chains, so it is important to know the grades and sizes of the lashing chains and binders you are using. Each load binder is marked with a specification (interval) where the smaller test value represents the size of the Grade 70 chain and the larger value represents the size of the Grade 43 chain required.

Example

For example, size 3/8'' - 1/2'', 3/8'' is for Grade 70 chains and 1/2'' is for Grade 43 chains. Technically, it is possible to use both 3/8'' or 1/2'' Grade chains, but if you use them with 1/2'' Grade 70 chains, the chain load binder will be weaker than the chains, making the load binder the weakest part of the component.

Use

So if you are using 1/2'' grade 70 chains, it is best to use them with 1/2'' - 5/8'' load binders so that the load binders and chains are equally strong.

The strength of a component depends on its weakest link.

What are Chain Binders?

Chain binders are devices designed to tighten chains when securing a load for transport. Also known as load binders, they are available in two main types: ratchet load binders and lever load binders. The ratchet type load binder has a ratchet handle with two tension hooks at either end. Ratchet load binders are easier to adjust in finer increments and do not have the same kickback effect or recoil as lever load binders. Lever load binders use leverage to create tension on the chain and store kinetic energy in the handle. These binders are simpler in design and easier to fit because they have fewer moving parts, but they require more force to tighten.

Our selection of chain binders for sale includes various options, allowing you to choose the right one for your specific needs. We also offer chain binders for sale for those looking for cost-effective solutions without compromising on quality. Whether you need ratchet load binders for sale for heavy-duty transport or mini ratchet binders for more precise tasks, we have the right products to meet your needs. Our lashing chains and binders are made from high-quality materials, ensuring durability and reliability in every application.

The Difference Between Ratchet Load Binder And Lever Load Binder

Price

There is a difference in price between the ratchet load binder and the lever load binder. Typically, the lever load binder is the more economical option, making it a popular choice for those looking to save on costs when purchasing load binders for sale.

Safety

Ratchet load binders offered by LG RIGGING®, a leading rigging hardware manufacturer, are generally considered the safer option. They use a ratchet mechanism to create tension on the chain and secure the load, while minimizing the amount of energy stored in the handle. This reduces the risk of handle backlash, which is a common concern with lever load binders. For this reason, many prefer ratchet chain binders for sale, especially for heavy-duty applications.

Hooks

Both types of chain binders have tension hooks at each end, but they differ in how they create tension and secure the load. Lever load binders use leverage to tighten chains and hold the load. They are simpler in design and require more physical force to operate. They are also known as lever chains or snap binders due to the way they store energy in the handle. Ratchet load binders, also known as ratchet chains, use a ratchet mechanism to apply gradual tension, making them easier to operate and safer, especially in heavy-duty applications.
