General notes

Binder operation in confined spaces

The ultimate Binder is very adaptable to confined spaces since the hook held in position on one end can be engaged with the chain or securement anchor while the operator is holding the other end and extending the binder to the point of engagement. Attachment  points can be under the load being secured (under heavy equipment, autos, trucks being transported, on ferries etc.) where the operation of ratchet and lever binder handles or other power drivers are difficult of impossible to  engage or operate. ​

Also, since the operator is at the end of the binder ( with the extension on the driver assembly being variable in length)  he can be more  remote from the binder and load itself (ie., not in the confined space under the load). 

​

High and wide loads

Loads of logs, lumber, steel or concrete pipe or cable reals, etc, can utilize the majority of the width of the deck of a truck, etc. The operator may have little or no space available to work on the deck to install binders and are exposed to possible falls from the deck.

Also, the binders installed on these loads are usually well above the deck and the operator must reach up to install and work ratchet or lever binder handles or engage other power binder drivers, thus exposing the operator to injuries' such as strains to arms, shoulders and backs, etc.

  The operator can extend the binder up the side of high wide loads and engage the remote hook with the chain well above the deck while holding the binder at the  lower end of the binder thus reducing the excess extension of the drivers reach.

The operator can engage the Ultimate binder with the impact driver positioned  comfortably at the bottom or bellow the end of the binder. This also allows the operator to easily check chain tension and if necessary retension chains at the 50 mile load check.
