Each tab is made from low-carbon steel with a plain finish and sized for common webbing and hook fittings. Sold as an 8-pack, they let you add multiple secure anchors quickly by welding them to trailer beds, utility frames, cargo racks, or custom metalwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow strong and durable are these welded tie-down tabs?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tabs are stamped from 1\/4\" (0.25\") thick low-carbon steel for a balance of strength and weldability. The plain finish provides basic protection and a clean surface for welding or painting after installation. Because they are solid steel, they stand up to regular lashing pressure from straps, ropes, and hooks when properly welded to a suitable base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaterial: low-carbon steel for reliable weld properties\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThickness: 1\/4\" plate for heavy-duty resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFinish: plain — ready for welding, painting, or coating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as: pack of 8 identical tabs for multiple anchor points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat dimensions should I expect when planning attachments?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach tab measures 4-1\/4\" from end to end, giving ample footprint for secure welds and clearance.
