Ratchet Lashing Points
These are the lashing/securing points for ratchet straps, which allow the secuing of gas bottles inside the cage, the ratchet strap can be weaved throughout the various lashing points and then around each bottle greatly restricting movement and therefore reducing the chance of bottles falling over, which due to their pressurised nature makes this a key safety feature. There are 6 lashing points on this gas cage along with thick 20mm rod on each side which can have straps wrapped around it.
Lynch Pin for Securing Ramp When Closed
The cage comes with a ramp for easy loading and unloading of the gas bottles,this ramp has a small hole which when closed can slot over a metal pin which has a hole drilled allowing for the lynch pin to be slotted in, this keep the ramp closed when not in use and prevents it from swinging loose during transport.
