Abstract
Corner edge protectors for lading tied down by a cable running over a corner edge of the lading. The protector may be formed of rigid or lightweight, distortable, shape-resuming semi-rigid durable plastic such as polyurethane. The protector is L-shaped and relatively wide so as to provide a substantial lading-engaging surface area. One of the legs of the protector, usually the vertical leg when installed, has an integrally formed cable-retaining hook-shaped tab formation which is yieldable to allow entry and exit of a tie down cable. The other leg, usually the horizontal leg when installed, may have a cushion formation into which a taut cable sinks.
