See full text

A shield for attachment to and removal from a lading tie-down strap for shielding the strap from learing engagement with a corner of lading or cargo. The shield is preferably molded from a plastic material such as polyurethane and is in the form of a generally rectangular shaped pad. The pad has two end portions interconnected by a transverse live hinge area. Each end portion has an integrally formed raised flap extending transversely thereacross. One of the flaps is hinged adjacent one longitudinal edge of the tab while the other flap is hinged adjacent the opposite side or edge. The distal end of each flap has a hook formation on its underside which is open toward the proximal end of the flap. In use, a tie-down strap is inserted under the flaps which may be temporarily lifted to permit insertion. One edge of the tie-down strap will be inserted in one of the hooks while the opposite edge of the strap will be inserted in the hook of the other strap.
