Fastgun tiedowns - tension vs camper weight
The manufacturers specify adjusting the tension so the O-ring is 1/4" below the barrel when the tension is applied. No mention of varying the loading depending on the size and weight of the camper ...

I saw a photo of a rollover and the fastguns still held the TC in place in the bed. How much stronger do they need to be?
The tie downs aren't carrying the load of the camper, your truck is. They just hold it in place. As you should know, the tie downs are spring loaded, they aren't supposed to crank down on the TC anchors. So I'm not understanding the concern with this as they carry no weight and the weak point is the TC itself.
