A high-performance hybrid tie-down system engineered to provide the constant tension of a bungee cord with the superior load-bearing strength of industrial webbing.
The Tiegear Helix is designed to solve the problem of loads shifting or settling during transit. Traditional rigid straps can become loose if a load compresses, while standard bungees often lack the strength to secure heavy gear. The Helix features a heavy-resistance internal latex tube integrated into the webbing, allowing the strap to maintain active tension at all times. This "dynamic hold" ensures that mid-weight items like kayaks, surfboards, storage cases, and ladders remain locked down tight even over corrugated roads or high-speed highway travel.
Key Technical Features
-
Hybrid Tension Technology: Combines a high-tensile latex core with rugged outer webbing, providing a secure hold that adapts to load movement without coming loose.
-
135kg Maximum Load: Significantly stronger than standard bungee cords, featuring a 45kg Safe Working Load (SWL) per strap for reliable cargo management.
-
Integrated Mesh Storage Pocket: Features Tiegear’s signature "stash" pocket sewn into the webbing to neatly house excess strap, eliminating wind-flutter and tangling.
-
Heavy-Resistance Latex Tube: The core is engineered to prevent the "rebound" effect of cheap bungees, offering a controlled, high-resistance stretch that dampens road shock.
-
Universal 2.4m Length: Provides ample reach for securing gear to roof racks, ute trays, and trailers, with easy adjustment for smaller loads.
-
Corrosion-Resistant Hardware: Designed for the Australian elements, featuring durable hardware that resists rust and degradation from salt and UV exposure.
-
Sold as a Pair: Each pack includes two complete Helix straps, providing a balanced tie-down solution for most recreational and work applications.
