Your Fridge Is One of the Most Expensive Pieces of Camping Gear You Own

A quality 12V fridge often costs between $800 and $2,500.

Yet many people secure it using old straps or whatever they find lying around.

Drive a few kilometres of corrugations and that fridge is constantly moving.

Over time that movement places unnecessary stress on:

  • The fridge.
  • The mounting points.
  • Your drawers.
  • The vehicle.
  • The contents inside.

A quality fridge tie down helps keep everything where it belongs.


Why Securing Your Fridge Matters

Every bump, rut and washout places force on your fridge.

If it isn't secured properly it can:

  • Slide across the drawer.
  • Damage your fridge slide.
  • Wear through straps.
  • Damage wiring.
  • Unplug itself.
  • Damage nearby camping gear.

A properly secured fridge makes every trip safer.


Why We Built the Krawlergrips Fridge Tie Down

At Krawlergrips we wanted something different.

Most fridge straps are plain black webbing.

They work.

But they don't add anything to your setup.

So we designed a handmade paracord fridge tie down that combines function with style.

Every one is braided by hand in Brisbane using quality materials before being made to order.

It's another way to personalise your touring setup while keeping your fridge secure.

Handmade in Brisbane

Every Krawlergrips fridge tie down is:

  • Handmade.
  • Made to order.
  • Braided using quality Type III 550 paracord.
  • Built in Brisbane.
  • Available in multiple colour combinations.

No mass production.

No imported generic straps with our logo added.

Why Paracord?

We use genuine Type III commercial 550 nylon paracord because it offers:

  • Excellent durability.
  • UV resistance.
  • Moisture resistance.
  • Comfortable handling.
  • Great colour choices.

It complements the rest of the Krawlergrips range, allowing you to match your grab handles, pull straps and accessories.

  • Two stainless steel carabiners.
