For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

As someone who straps, I felt this in my soul. God I hate that noise(I use tarp clamps for dampeners).

I've used a twist in the strap and that seems to help a lot.

Gotta be careful though, twist in the strap can ruin the strength limit of the strap if it's under load

Edit: others have pointed out it's for cargo straps specifically. I guess I was thinking of more knotting than twists. Either way, just follow the instructions.

Interesting. I was under the impression that the vibrations could be a problem if not twisted

apparently it's a hotly debated topic, who knew! https://dccargo.com/blogs/strap-chat/to-twist-or-not-to-twist-cargo-straps
