Buyers Products Weld-On Lashing Ring Instructions - 16,000 lb Tie-Down

This is a photograph of the instruction card included in the retail packaging of a Buyers Products Company weld-on lashing ring (tie-down ring). The card, still stapled inside its clear plastic clamshell package, lists five installation and safety instructions: (1) position the lashing ring into the retaining bracket and place it against a solid flat surface; (2) continuously weld the mounting bracket to the mounting surface; (3) ensure the weld connection and mounting surface are sufficient to support the rated capacity of the lashing ring; (4) do not exceed the safe working load capacity of 16,000 lbs; and (5) routinely check the ring, bracket, weld, and surface for wear. The card also notes the product is made in the U.S.A. This is a generic product instruction card, not a vehicle-specific document, it contains no year, model, part number, or vehicle applicability information. It was uploaded to a 1978 Ford Bronco gallery, presumably documenting a tie-down ring the owner installed on the truck. A reader learns the correct weld-on installation method and the 16,000 lb safe working load rating of this lashing ring.
