The RB2509 is a mini ratchet buckle designed for 25mm webbing. It has a 900kg breaking strength and a 450 daN lashing capacity. It is manufactured from carbon steel, with a pressed steel handle. This is a non-locking ratchet. This ratchet buckle is a standard ratchet used for restraining lorry straps in road transport.
