Our 1" x 10' retractable ratchet straps wind back in — no loose tail flapping in the wind, no tangled ball in the toolbox. Push the button and they spool like a tape measure. Available in a 2-pack or 4-pack.
The 514 lb working load limit is the number that governs your load — not the break strength. Break strength is the point of failure, not a target. Industry practice is a 3:1 safety factor, which is exactly the gap between these two figures, and that margin exists to absorb road shock, not to be spent.
This is a light-to-medium duty tie-down. Right for a dirt bike, ATV, mower, appliance, lumber, or a load of gear in the bed. Not right for anything approaching the strap's break strength.
Not for lifting or overhead use. This is a cargo tie-down assembly only.

The 514 lb working load limit is per strap, and a proper tie-down uses at least two — often four. A dirt bike, ATV, riding mower, appliance, or a bed full of gear is squarely in range. If your load approaches the strap's break strength, you need a heavier strap, not more of these.
Why does the strap retract?
A standard ratchet strap leaves you with several feet of loose webbing after you tighten. It flaps at highway speed, frays against the bed rail, and knots itself in storage. This one winds the slack back into the housing at the push of a button — like a tape measure. It's the difference between a two-minute job and a ten-minute one.
What's the difference between working load limit and break strength?
Break strength is where the assembly fails: 1,540 lb. Working load limit is what it's rated to hold in normal use: 514 lb. The 3:1 gap between them is the safety factor, and it's there to absorb the shock loads of a real road. Treat 514 lb as your ceiling.
Will the hooks scratch my truck or my bike?
The S-hooks are vinyl-coated to protect paint and chrome, and each has a spring safety latch so it can't pop off an anchor point if the strap goes slack over a bump.
How do I care for it?
Rinse off road salt and mud, let it dry fully before retracting, and store out of direct sun — UV is what kills webbing. Inspect before every use and retire the strap if you find cuts, fraying, burns, glazing, or any deformation in the ratchet hardware.
I am thoroughly impressed with this product. Its sharp and clean appearance is visually appealing. Additionally, it is remarkably quiet, eliminating any rattling noises. Overall, it is an exceptional.
I own a construction company and I have a fleet of trucks and trailers. Heavy duty trailers have the 2 5/8 inch hitch, while the smaller enclosed trailers have the 2 inch hitch. My guys were getting tired of swapping back-and-forth, so we invested in Bull Boulder hitches. They look great, and they’re super strong!! Highly recommend these for your trucks and trailers!
This drop hitch is by far the best hitch I've seen on the market in my 55 years of driving ! Beefy , heavy weight, solid construction out of single pieces, not poured cast aluminum! I have lifted TRD , and it fits my needs perfectly, and still has room to adjust to different trailer tounge heights! ! And no sloppy wiggle !
Put it on a 2011 F-150 to haul 21’ and 18’ Aluminum boats. I used to have leveling issues and flipped the hitch upside down to raise the hitch. The fit was perfect and I went with the 8” just to have a few more options. As a machinist myself, I looked closely at fit and finish and was very impressed. I will use this on multiple vehicles so the nice box with foam slots will work for storing in different vehicles when not in use. Definitely recommend.
Received my hitch on Tuesday and could not wait to install it on the truck. Talk about eye candy, this thing is really a work of art. I have not used it yet but will soon, thanks again. Forgot ,the pkg it came in was first class.
I received my BullBoulder Hitch approximately 3-weeks ago and just now had the opportunity to use. This hitch is for real!! No rattle, fits securely, and handles a fairly heavy load. Although I only tested it out with a quick run around the block - this hitch will need to withstand 4000-mile roundtrips from NC to CO on a regular basis under heavy loads -we'll see how she holds up? Other than that, I'm pretty happy with the hitch at this point. Thank you BullBoulder Team!!
The quality in the presentation of this hitch is outstanding very meticulous in the machine work and the finish very impressed with the product. Highly recommend.
