Hi all,

HGV/truck newbie here. My 7.5T transporter has a series of 4 rails on the wall, and I wondered what fixings are designed to fit them (as ratchet strap hooks don't fit well).
The circular ones I hazard a guess are for sprung load poles to stop loads shifting, but the slotted ones look like there may be some nice hooks/fixings I could use in them to secure items better.

They almost look like the E-Track system but that appears to be more of an American thing(??)

The slots are 6cm high if that helps...

Any links for useful fixing straps or similar would be handy, as I've no idea what to search for!!

Magic - thanks chaps.
Assume I could use a pair of these in it:

Along with a ratchet strap to secure loads to the wall such as a floor standing toolbox.

The round hole is for what we used to call a pogo pole, I don't know if there is a proper name for it.
Basically a telescopic pole with a spring in it.

They are very similar to the fixings we had on our ratchet straps when I pulled box trailers, our load bars were the same.
