A safety tie down bar (10) is provided with a handle grip and a protection system (30) for use with a ratcheting winch type tightening device. The safety tie down bar (10) includes a longitudinally extended handle member (20) having a linearly directed section (21) and an angularly directed section (23). Each of sections (21) and (23) includes a ratchet end portion (22) and (24) respectively. Hand grip and protection system (30) includes a plurality of annular sleeves (32, 34 and 36) longitudinally displaced each from the other along handle member (20). First annular sleeve (32) functions alternately as either a hand grip member, when ratchet end portion (24) is inserted within the ratcheting device, or as a means for limiting the insertion depth of ratchet end portion (22). Similarly ratchet stop member (40) is located adjacent the ratchet end portion (24) for either acting as a hand grip member when ratchet end portion (22) is inserted within the tightening device, or serving as a means for limiting the insertion depth of ratchet end portion (24). Both first annular sleeve (32) and ratchet stop member (40) provide a protective resilient cover for portions of handle member (20) likely to be subjected to notching. Additionally, a resilient end cap member (50) is provided to be releasably coupled to either end of handle member (20) to provide a cushion for the exposed end of handle member (20) when the opposing end is inserted within the ratchet type tightening device.
