Abstract
A quick-connect tie down system includes a grip base with a separable C-shaped clamping bracket which is interconnected thereto by a durable strap. A ratchet assembly mounted on the grip base winds the strap onto a spool to draw C-shaped clamping bracket toward a second removable connector to sandwich a portion of an article to a portion of a vehicle or secondary article. Use of one quick-connect tie down system at each end of the article ensures its retention to a vehicle or secondary article. Extension straps are provided to afford added flexibility of usage.
