    Just wondering is there a way of joining the plain ends of two ratchet straps together other than just tying them in a knot which might be hard to undo?

    Thanks

    Is it to make a longer strap?

    I'd be very wary of doing this as it would compromise the strength of the strap.

    Yes Allinall, just to make two shorter straps a bit longer.

    And only for tying stuff down at home - not for anything where safety would be an issue.

    Feed the two ends into one ratchet and tighten up

    Knowledge is learning something, wisdom is learning from it, intelligence thought of it first.

    Yeah, I have a spare ratchet so might try that.
