U.S.-made. Easy to use. Lifetime warranty. Those are things customers appreciate about the Tie Boss. It’s a handy tool for tying down or hoisting up loads.
    “About 80 percent of people with trucks don’t need ratchet straps,” says Rich Meissner, product manager for Tie Boss. It’s more than they need to strap down an appliance or occasional load, plus using ratchets can be challenging.
    “Tie Boss works similar to a Venetian blind,” Meissner says. Just pull the rope to tighten or hoist up something. Tuck the rope behind a safety tab to secure it for hauling. To release, just pull the rope at an angle to release.
    Tie Boss was invented about 12 years ago, with outdoorsmen in mind, to secure ATVs, snowmobiles and hunting and fishing gear. The 3/8-in. Tie Boss ($22) has a 300-lb. load limit, so four of them secure equipment up to 1,200 lbs. As part of the block and tackle package ($70), hunters use it to hoist up wild game or items 300 lbs. or less.
    As the product was introduced at trade shows, new markets realized its value and specific uses were developed. Jeep owners appreciate the jeep top sling to lift the tops off their Jeeps. Slings for kayaks and ladders create garage storage solutions using the 1/4-in. Tie Boss ($16) with a 150-lb. weight capacity.
    At the Oshkosh, Wis., air show, Meissner notes he sells Tie Boss slings to store plane wings out of the way.
    Tie Boss is built to last, made of glass-filled nylon polymer that is boiled to fuse water into plastic to increase its strength by 10 percent. The Tie Boss hardware has a limited lifetime warranty, and it comes with 10 ft. of solid braid, polypropylene rope.
    “Once people purchase and use it, they find so many uses for it,” Meissner says.
    Farmers use it to secure square hay bales. Campers and hunters hoist up coolers in bear country. Bird lovers use it to raise and lower bird feeders.
    Tie Boss can be found at NAPA Auto Parts and online.
