Suspended Tiedown System

ASTRA™ Suspended Tiedown System

ASTRA™ is a patent-pending Suspended Tiedown System engineered for pickup truck cargo bays, enabling the secure restraint of low-height cargo that conventional rail and cleat systems cannot effectively manage.

At the core of the System are adjustable Suspended Tiedown Brackets (STB™), designed to introduce elevated, configurable anchor points within the cargo space.

These STB enable cargo to be contained, restrained and secured using tie-down webbing straps, when cargo sits below the height of conventional rails.

Multiple strap slots and vertically and horizontally adjustable mounting positions allow for simultaneous use of multiple straps, supporting a wide range of cargo types, shapes and sizes. This enables cargo to be stacked, separated and independently secured, improving both load stability and organisation.

The System functions as a modular, fully adjustable, multi-axis restraint platform, allowing independent vertical and horizontal securement through dedicated anchor points.

Key Design Features

  • Multiple vertically and horizontally adjustable tie-down anchor positions.
  • Multiple vertical and horizontal tie-down anchor points.
  • Independent vertical and horizontal restraint from separate anchor points.
  • Secure stacking capability with individual load restraint.
  • Adjustable STB positioning (vertical and horizontal).
  • Tool-free installation and adjustment.
  • Rapid integration with most factory rail and cleat systems.
  • Effective restraint of low-height cargo (below rail level).

Performance & Differentiation

ASTRA™ Suspended Tiedown System has demonstrated strong performance across all internal testing scenarios, delivering consistent cargo stability under varied load conditions.

By addressing a fundamental limitation of conventional rail and cleat tie-down systems, ASTRA Suspended Tiedown System introduces a new category of cargo restraint capability, extending functionality from high-load securing to precise, low-height cargo management.

Designed for integration with factory-installed cargo rail and cleat systems, the ASTRA Suspended Tiedown System enhances cargo management capability without requiring vehicle modification. By utilising existing rail and cleat infrastructure, the System preserves established vehicle architecture while extending cargo restraint capability.
