Correct tensioning begins during installation. The Kalahari Strap Tensioner is designed to assist with initial tightening of shade sails before final tensioning is completed using a turnbuckle.
The strap is manufactured from durable polyester and is intended for temporary use during installation only. It is not designed for lifting or permanent load-bearing applications.
Suitable for shade sail installations over patios, pool areas, parking bays and garden play areas.
Key Features:
- INITIAL TENSIONING TOOL: Assists with first-stage tightening.
- DURABLE POLYESTER STRAP: 4.6 m strap length for flexible installation.
- TEMPORARY USE ONLY: Not suitable for permanent installations or lifting.
- MAX LOAD LIMIT: Rated up to 400 kg.
Installation:
- For safe and effective installation, ensure the shade sail is fully tensioned and fixed to secure mounting points.
- Each corner must attach to either a wall-mounted pad eye or a pole-mounted eyebolt.
- Use S-hooks, D-shackles or snap hooks to connect the shade sail's D-rings to the mounting hardware.
- At least one corner on a triangle, or two corners on a square or rectangle, must include a turnbuckle to achieve proper final tensioning.
- A strap tensioner may be used for initial tightening; a turnbuckle must be used for final tensioning.
- Correct tensioning is essential for stability in windy conditions.
