They suit paddlers, campers, cyclists and anyone loading a roof rack, bike carrier or load bed. The stretch keeps steady tension on the load without a ratchet or buckle to wind in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy This Product\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGear that isn't a neat, flat shape is awkward to tie down: paddles rolling around a kayak, a tent trying to unroll itself, or tools sliding across a workshop floor. A stretch strap with a hook on each end loops around odd shapes and holds them together under tension, so items that don't sit flat still travel secured, and pack away small when you're done.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElastic build\u003c\/strong\u003e – stretches around irregular loads and keeps holding tension without a ratchet mechanism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHooks on each end\u003c\/strong\u003e – loop onto a rack, carrier or tie-down point for a fast fix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA few different lengths\u003c\/strong\u003e – sized to suit anything from a small bundle to a bulkier load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutdoor-grade materials\u003c\/strong\u003e – made to keep working after repeated trips in the weather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-purpose\u003c\/strong\u003e – moves between marine, camping, surfing, cycling, cargo and workshop jobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePaddlers and surfers\u003c\/strong\u003e who need a fast way to bundle a kayak, canoe paddle or board onto a roof rack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCampers packing the vehicle\u003c\/strong\u003e who want to bundle sleeping bags, tents and loose gear together for the drive.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCyclists using a bike carrier\u003c\/strong\u003e who tie bikes together on the carrier so they don't swing around in transit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnyone shifting cargo or tools\u003c\/strong\u003e since the stretch and hooks work as well in a garage as on the road.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLocal Support from 4Matt Campers\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur team at 4Matt Campers in \u003cstrong\u003eSouth Africa\u003c\/strong\u003e can help you match a Stretchie length to what you're loading.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Holdfast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 440080, 440090, 440350\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOptional Fitment \/ Upgrade Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStretchies come in a few lengths and are a general-purpose tie, so check these points first:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatch the length to the bundle or item you're loading — ask us if you're unsure which of the available sizes suits your gear.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThey're built for bundling loose gear, not as a rated tie-down for one heavy item; use a cam or ratchet strap for that instead.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThey hook onto whatever rack, carrier or anchor point you already have — Stretchies don't come with their own mounting hardware.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eComplete Your Setup\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSee the full range of \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/roof-racks\"\u003eroof racks\u003c\/a\u003e to load gear onto, or browse \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/accessories\"\u003eaccessories\u003c\/a\u003e for tie-downs and straps that pair with Stretchies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat can I use Stretchies for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey work on kayaks, canoes and paddles, tents and sleeping bags, surfboards, bikes on a carrier, cargo in a boot or load bed, and tools or equipment around a workshop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo Stretchies come in different lengths?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, they're available in a few lengths so you can match the strap to what you're securing — tell us what you're loading and we can help you choose.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan Stretchies replace a ratchet strap?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot for a single heavy item that needs a rated hold.
