A two-piece anchor assembly has a retainer and an interlocking link. The link is a unitary component that is formed by a single forging step. The link is secured to the floor of a railway flatcar by the retainer. A steel band is connected at one end to a load bearing surface of the link of a first anchor assembly and at another end to a load bearing surface of the link of a second anchor assembly. A tensile force is then applied to the steel banding and crimped with a clip in order to secure cargo. The load bearing surface has an enhanced banding radius, which reduces the risk of band breakage when the steel band is subjected to a high tensile force by preventing "creasing" at contact locations.

Un ensemble d'ancrage à deux parties comporte un organe de retenue et un lien solidaire. Le lien est un composant unitaire qui est formé par une seule étape de forgeage. Le lien est fixé au plancher d'un wagon plat ferroviaire par l'élément de retenue. Une bande d'acier est reliée, à partir d'une extrémité, à une surface portante du lien du premier ensemble d'ancrage et, à partir d'une autre extrémité, à une surface portante du lien d'un second ensemble d'ancrage. Une force de traction est ensuite appliquée sur la bande d'acier et sertie au moyen d'une attache afin de fixer la cargaison. La surface portante a un rayon de cerclage amélioré, qui réduit le risque de rupture de bande lorsque la bande d'acier est soumis à une force de traction élevée en évitant le "rainage" aux emplacements de contact.
