There are certain things you just don’t skimp on.
Airplane safety is one of them.
Abe’s Tie-Downs are widely recognized as the most advanced tiedown system available. Engineered from perforated stainless steel plates.
CNC-machined for greater strength and weight reduction, Abe’s tie-downs consistently come out on top in pull tests against competing systems.
American-made in NE Oregon, Abe’s tiedowns are recognized by aviators, independent testing, and the flying community as the most effective tie-down system on the market.
In this video review, Aviation Consumer's Paul Bertorelli tests out three tiedown systems and one walks away with the award for the strongest design.
Test Results
In 2010 I tested two of the most popular tie down systems, FlyTie and The Claw™, against ours. We performed each of the pull tests on the same day, at the same location (within a 15’ circle), at seven backcountry locations that some of you may be familiar with.
The results, as any experienced aviator can tell you, depended in part on the type of soil...
“I wasn't looking for the cheapest way to tie down my plane... I wanted the best.
“After trying these out, this system is what I'm going to be bringing to all of my longer-term parking destinations with the RV-10 from now on.”
