NY METAL COIL ENDORSEMENT PRACTICE QUESTIONS WITH
ANSWERS CORRECT 2026
How are tiedowns used to secure a row of metal coils with eyes vertical on a flatbed vehicle
with anchor points? - CORRECT ANSWERS -At least one direct tiedown against the front of the
row of coils (to restrain against forward motion) and at least one other direct tiedown against
the rear of the row (to restrain against rearward motion), making an angle of 45 degrees or less
with the floor. At least one indirect tiedown over the top of each coil or side by sire row of coils
(to restrain against vertical motion).
Transportation of one or more metal coils weighing 5,000 pounds or more, individually or
bundled together, must comply with all of the following EXCEPT - CORRECT ANSWERS -General
cargo securement rules for flatbed vehicles, van-type vehicles or intermodal containers that
have anchor points.
To transport several metal coils whose combined aggregate weight is 4,000 pounds on pallets
on a flatbed trailer, which of the following is NOT required to be met? - CORRECT ANSWERS -
Metal coil endorsement on the CDL
The aggregate working load limit of all indirect tiedowns is - CORRECT ANSWERS -The sum of
the working load limits for each indirect tiedown
The sum of the working load limits (WLL) from all tiedowns must be at least _____ of the weight
of the cargo. - CORRECT ANSWERS -50%
_________ is an effective way to prevent rolling and provides the most restraining force. -
CORRECT ANSWERS -A cradle that has an angle oof 45 degrees
, Suppose that only two direct tiedowns are used. Both are attached to one side of the vehicle
only, and each has a working load limit of 6,000 pounds. Then the aggregate working load limit
for the two tiedowns is - CORRECT ANSWERS -6000 lbs
If you're using indirect tiedowns but friction is low between the deck and the cargo, consider
using - CORRECT ANSWERS -any of the above
direct tiedowns
Friction mats or other friction enhancing devices
What are the requirements for securing a row of metal coils with eyes lengthwise? - CORRECT
ANSWERS -Support the coils above the deck. Attach at least two indirect tiedowns over each
coil or side by side row. Use blocking or friction mats.
To secure metal coils with their eyes lengthwise, what should you use to prevent forward
movement of the coils? - CORRECT ANSWERS -Either above
*Blocking
*Friction Mats
To secure metal coils with their eyes crosswise, which means of securement is prohibited? -
CORRECT ANSWERS -Direct tiedowns attached diagonally through the eye of the coil to form an
X pattern
What is the most important securement task? - CORRECT ANSWERS -To prevent an article of
cargo from moving forward
When is use of a friction mat recommended? - CORRECT ANSWERS -When the deck or coil is
soaked with oil.
