Does Part 393.102(b) 49 CFR require securement devices to be marked or labeled with their working load limit or any other information?
No. Although Part 393.102(b) 49 CFR requires chain, wire rope, synthetic webbing, cordage, and steel strapping tiedowns to meet applicable manufacturing standards, it explicitly excludes marking identification provisions of those manufacturing standards. Since Part 393.102(b) 49 CFR does not establish manufacturing standards or marking requirements for other types of securement devices, such devices are not required to be marked with their working load limit.
