The “ULTIMATE BINDER”, a tensioning device, primarily developed to allows truck drivers to install and operate a lighter, safer, more efficient binder, utilizing a power driver, while safely standing on the ground beside the truck. The binder consists of 2 apposing yokes joined by a bolt, which when rotated, draws the yokes together. Since the bolt head is inside a yoke, it is rotated by an extension with a universal type joint and socket, attached to a power driver or a crank. During the tensioning operation the only moving part is the bolt which is driven from the end of the binder. Since there is no handle or gear box, it can be used in confined spaces and with the possibility of lading damage being reduced. The single screw requires half the torque required by double screw binders and is less prone to loosening in transit. The top of each yoke and the swivel have holes with clevis pins to attach devises such as hooks.
