thank you so much brother!! I got stuck with this for half an hour and couldn’t get it out til I watched your video. You’re the best! Couldn’t find anyone else talk about this til I found yours
Thank you very much. I just bought this ratchet tie down. And I jammed it before I could do anything with it. This video was so handy Thank you very much everything's all right now.. 😊👍
Thanks. I had this problem with too much strap being jammed on the reel. I used the handle of a spoon to pull out some tape as I thought pliers may damage the strap. But still couldn't unwind. I did so by using a lever to turn the spindle in the correct direction and pulling on the strap.
Thanks so much man was fighting all day trying to get this one strap unjammed. I didn't have any needle nose pliers so I didn't think it was gonna work but I tried it with the regular sized pliers I had available and it worked as well. Thanks again thought I was going to have to buy more.
Thank you so much! It seemed counterintuitive to loosen it then pull it tight, but it worked! After I loosened up a few layers, it allowed me to pull and unratchet it.
OMG... thank you thank you for posting this video. I jammed up my dad's ratchet strap and was thinking I was going to have to run to the hardware store to buy him a new one to fix my mistake... but I followed your instructions and I was able to fix it.
I was afraid that my technique is the same as yours. My needle nose pliers are damaging the strap so I just placed my ratchet in the freezer. Hopefully the temp change will shrink the metal so I can pull some of the strap through
Be careful with using pliers like this, most of them have wire cutters at the bottom(like these) and you don’t want to cut the straps for obvious reasons, I just used a flathead screwdriver in the same sort of way and it worked pretty easily
this is my go to method but unfortunately I'm dealing with a heavy duty thick ratchet and this method is not feasible.. damn, I've been messing with mine for about 2 months on and off of course . I'm ready to toss it, shit has me frustrated and I'm beginning to lose sleep and I'm starting to see the strap laughing at me lol..
Curious why isn't there a strap that works like a fishing reel just push a button to pull out strap and turn the reel to wind it and have two hooks just like the ratchet strap
Those metal pliers will damage the strap. Now it's not rated for a load. If you cant undo the jam by hand you discard that strap and eat the cost. Make sure that strap isn't compromised next time.
Oh dear, what's this? No mate. All you do is pull the catch (bolt side) and reverse spool (close handle), repeat. Put your foot on the line for a little pressure to help it round.
Thank you dad's of TH-cam ❤

I just took mines apart in the end with needle nose pliers and put it back together. Thx for the suggestions though. Huge help.
You don’t even understand how much time and effort this video saved me today. Thank you.

Thank you for demonstrating the real-time struggle and effort it takes. And not even a cuss word! Props to your self-control, sir.
tell me about it.. I've used every cuss word in both English and Spanish dealing with the stupid strap..
You are awesome, thank you sooooo much 🙌🏻 I never thought it would be able to be released. It took a few minutes.

Thank you sooo much… you just saved my rachet !!!
Thanks after a lot of maneuvering I got it unjammed.
thanks so much! really saved the day!
But usually get stuck when it’s on a job and it’s tight not on my table at home 🤔
Hi, this video was extremely simple and easy to follow. Thank you so much for posting this.
OMG, it worked!!I had two straps jammed to the max because I didn’t know how to thread the webbing through the windless 😬
Awesome, thanks mate. To the point, and informative.
Thanks so much. I got mine jammed up trying to secure my load in my semi
Very well done, keep up the great work!
Worked great! thank you so much
Thanks brother!
Excellent and very useful. Got me out of a big jam.
Yes brother 🙌 thank you!
Worked for me in 10 seconds. Thanks!
Disassemble the winding mandrel so not to damage the webbing .
Cheers mate…mine’s working!!
Not all heros wear capes....Thank you.
I was afraid that my technique is the same as yours. My needle nose pliers are damaging the strap so I just placed my ratchet in the freezer. Hopefully the temp change will shrink the metal so I can pull some of the strap through
No luck for me using the freezer. I threw mine out
Be careful with using pliers like this, most of them have wire cutters at the bottom(like these) and you don’t want to cut the straps for obvious reasons, I just used a flathead screwdriver in the same sort of way and it worked pretty easily
I started crying and screaming earlier because it was so jammed now I feel really ridiculous

Thank you for this ❤
It worked thank you!❤❤
