Old snatch strap

[growler2058]

Re packing my recovery gear today and found one of my snatch straps looking a bit worse for wear. So rather than risk it snapping, it's gone in the bin

You can buy them pretty cheap these days anyway. Wouldn't you keep it as a worst case back up tho ??

Nah ive got 2 more

I use them to drag fire wood around a campsite,
as well as my snigging chain,
But cheap enough now to replace , never skimp on safety

If you wrap it around the jeep it keeps the doors closed rather than those dodgy door hinges.....

[Woof]

Do they come in any colour other than black silver and yellow? Lol

A mates just bought one and the dealership told him it will keep up with patrols lol!
When they posted it to Facebook I got on my wife's account and posted that link to the guy that's smashing up his lemon jeep, they weren't impressed lmfao

For what it's worth.........

Wow I forgot they once did almost unbiast comparisons , those were the days before t11 and roo lmao

The Super Cheap strap won the test one year, They were only $40 at the time. Go figure
Not too long ago all the straps were stitched at the same place in Dandenong, I had a tour of the place
from my liking of sewing machines. lol Op Lock, TJM and ARB were all stitched there

A really good read. Has made me wonder if the gear, I have is capable.

[Stropp]

yes i did the same after the simpson, Darren got up me for having a slightly damaged one so when i got home i binned it along with a couple of others that are a bit worse for wear.

[threedogs]

Its a safety item ,just like a shackle or winch cable, if in doubt throw it out.
You may get jeered for pulling out a new strap, but worth it IMO

[NP99]

Such a waste to throw them out. Totally understand from a safety point their use by date as a snatch strap, but if you could buy the large buckle tie downs and convert them over, it would save dumping them. They must have a second life employed else where!!!
