Key features include durable polyester webbing, wide ratchet handles for ease of use, and soft straps specifically designed to protect alloy wheels.

Each strap in this set has a minimum breaking load of 5000KG.
The soft round sling straps are specifically designed to protect alloy wheels. For steel wheels, care should still be taken to avoid damage, though the protective feature is most critical for alloys.
For secure vehicle transport on a trailer, it is recommended to use at least one strap on each wheel, totaling four straps for a standard vehicle. Ensure straps are tensioned appropriately and securely attached.
No, these straps are specifically designed for load securing and vehicle recovery only. They are not suitable for lifting or general towing operations.
The factor of safety for these straps is 2:1, meaning the breaking strength is twice the intended working load limit.
Store the straps in a clean, dry environment, away from direct sunlight, moisture, chemicals, and sharp objects. Ensure they are loosely coiled or hung to prevent kinking or undue stress on the webbing.
Ensure the webbing is not caught or twisted within the mechanism. Clean any debris from the ratchet gears and lubricate lightly with a silicone-based spray if necessary. Check for any signs of damage to the mechanism.
Immediately cease use of the strap. Any signs of damage to the webbing, such as cuts, fraying, or significant abrasion, compromise its load-bearing capacity and safety. Replace the damaged strap or the entire set.
Ensure the anchor point is suitable and free from obstructions. Check that the snap hook is fully engaged and the spring-loaded gate is closing correctly. If the hook is bent or damaged, it should not be used.
