    The ones from the states had a destruction test of 14t .
    They told the guy there was no standard to which they can be tested.
    I would ask for a proof rating of 3.5T

    So seems I'm the only cumb dunt that's wants rated recovery gear..
    So I'm taking it on.
    Been in contact with a few companies to see if we can do a destruction test of one or 2 of the units and get a certificate to show stretch, break and any other info they can extract from the test..
    So hang about. I'm currently pricing it all.
    Cheers

    When I went to a different place to get any gear tested it cost per ton so to speak.
    Which I think is wrong. Stretch wont tell you much as it can stretch slowly or fast with the same result.
    I high BS would be the cheapest , so just request a destruction test imo
