Which tensioning device is used with webbing to secure light vehicles aboard Ro-Ro vessels?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Ro-Ro (Roll-on/Roll-off) vehicle securing systems and typical gear for light vehicles vs heavy cargo • Differences between webbing lashings and chain lashings • How various tensioning devices (ratchet, turnbuckle, chain lever) are normally used on board

💭 Think About

• First, match the device that is most commonly paired with webbing straps rather than chain or wire • Think about which of these options allows quick, repeated tightening and release — useful for cars and vans on vehicle decks • Consider which devices are more typical for heavy loads and chain lashings instead of light vehicles

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options are usually associated with chain (not webbing) and set those aside • Ask: which device is commonly seen on cargo securing straps for trucks and trailers ashore — ships often use the same for light vehicles • Verify that your chosen device can provide progressive mechanical advantage and can be locked in place easily by one person
