The Frame-Mount Standard — RTJ Cluster Hooks, DiamondWeave™, 9 Colors
The V-Bridle is the frame-mount tie-down solution for professional auto haulers who need maximum holding power without any tire or wheel contact. Where an over-wheel strap loops the tire, the V-Bridle attaches directly to the vehicle's frame or axle via RTJ cluster hooks — forming a diagonal V-pattern that distributes load across two secure attachment points. This is the method specified in many high-end vehicle transport contracts and the standard practice for luxury, classic, and low-profile vehicle transport.
Built on DiamondWeave™ webbing — a proprietary cross-diagonal weave that reduces internal fiber abrasion at friction contact points compared to standard flat-woven polyester — these straps deliver a longer service life under the conditions of daily auto transport. Available in 9 DiamondWeave™ colors for color-coded fleet management.

V-Bridle vs. Over-Wheel Strap — When to Use Which
Both are accepted vehicle securement methods for open carrier transport. Professionals choose the V-Bridle when:
- Luxury and exotic vehicles — zero tire contact eliminates any risk of sidewall marking or rim contact; required by many luxury vehicle transport contracts
- Classic and show cars — frame attachment keeps tires in showroom condition for collector and auction transport
- Low-profile tires or wide aftermarket rims — over-wheel straps can contact expensive wheels; V-Bridle removes that risk entirely
- Lowered vehicles — some lowered cars have insufficient tire sidewall clearance for proper over-wheel strap placement; frame mount solves the problem
- Motorcycles and trikes — V-Bridle frame attachment is standard practice for two and three-wheel transport
Why DiamondWeave™ Webbing Lasts Longer
Standard polyester webbing degrades fastest at friction contact points — where hooks seat, where straps run through ratchet teeth, where webbing contacts trailer rails. DiamondWeave™ uses a cross-diagonal weave that:
- Distributes friction stress across a wider surface area rather than concentrating it at single-point contact
- Resists internal fiber breakdown significantly longer than standard flat-woven polyester
- Maintains rated load capacity further into the strap's service life
- Available in 9 distinct colors for fleet position tracking and driver accountability
Color-Code Your Fleet
With 9 DiamondWeave™ colors, fleet managers track strap age by rotating color schedules, mark trailer position (front axle = black, rear = blue), or assign straps to specific drivers for accountability. Color coding is a professional practice on well-run auto hauling operations — it takes seconds to see which straps have been in service longest.
