News overview
Cargo restraint is a critical link in air freight safety. When selecting pallet nets and restraint straps, first confirm the product holds an airworthiness certification such as CTSO-C172 — the basic entry requirement for airline and cargo-terminal procurement lists. Second, match the rated working load and tensile strength to your actual cargo profile, and choose low-elongation, abrasion-resistant webbing to avoid slackening in flight. Third, verify that hooks and end fittings are compatible with your ULD pallets and that the product passes flammability testing. In daily operations, inspect webbing for cuts, wear and aging on a regular cycle and keep replacement records. Gitu Aviation's pallet nets and restraint strap assemblies cover mainstream ULD specifications with fully traceable production, offering compliant and reliable load-securing solutions for cargo terminals and airline operators.
