What Are Austlift Tie Down Fittings?
Austlift Tie Down Fittings are heavy-duty anchor points used to secure loads with chains, straps & other restraint equipment. They form an essential part of a safe load restraint system by creating strong, reliable attachment points that help minimise movement during transport.
They're commonly installed on trucks, trailers, utes, machinery transporters & commercial vehicles carrying equipment, building materials, pallets & heavy machinery. For complete restraint systems, many customers combine these fittings with Chain, Wire & Rope & Chain Connectors & Links to create secure transport solutions for demanding worksites.
Manufactured for professional use, the range includes D rings, lashing rings, recessed tie down points, bolt-on anchor points, weld-on anchor points & replacement restraint hardware designed for long-term durability.

Product Selection Guide
Selecting the right tie down fitting starts with understanding your load, restraint method & vehicle setup. Consider the Working Load Limit (WLL), mounting style, available clearance, corrosion resistance & compatibility with your restraint equipment before making a selection.
If equipment needs to be moved around the workshop before loading, many businesses use Trolleys to improve handling efficiency while reducing manual lifting. Matching compatible lifting, handling & restraint equipment from the outset helps create a safer workflow across every stage of transport.
