ABSTRACT:
An interlocking flatbed trailer load strap fastening system provides a strap fastener carried by the end of a load securing strap and a fixed fastener carried by a flatbed trailer. The strap fastener may be attached to the fixed fastener only when the strap fastener is precisely rotated. The strap fastener provides a body having left and right side elements and upper and lower cross members and a curved base, together defining an upper strap opening where a load strap may be secured, and a first hook opening. Left and right prongs extending from the curved base, define a second hook opening between them. A fixed fastener provides a hook portion somewhat resembling a horse's head extending from a base permanently attached to the side of the frame of the flatbed trailer. By momentarily rotating the strap fastener, the hook portion may be inserted into the first and second hook openings. The strap fastener is then securely attached to the fixed fastener, until carefully rotated and removed.
