A ratchet strap tensioner 110 comprising a first arm (112, figure 9) and a second arm (114) mounted on bush members 138 for pivotal movement relative to each other, a two-part winding spindle 182, 186 having a second part 186 slidable relative to a first part 182, when not prevented from sliding by a lock. The lock comprises a locking peg shaft with a first portion 192 engaging a slot within the second part 186 to prevent sliding movement, and a second portion 194 that does not lockably engage the slot to allow sliding movement when the locking peg (198) position is changed by moving the peg (198) along an axis perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the spindle 182, 186. A spring 204 may bias the locking peg shaft (198) to engage, preventing the second part 186 from sliding relative to the first part 182, unless the peg shaft (198) is depressed by a user. A method of attaching a strap to and detaching it from the ratchet strap tensioner 110, without bending the strap is disclosed.
