Construction and Benefits of Recovery Straps with Reinforced Eyes
Construction of Recovery Straps
Recovery straps with reinforced eyes are meticulously crafted to elevate both functionality and safety in demanding situations. These straps typically feature loops or eyes rather than hooks, allowing for more flexibility during use. The eyes are often reinforced with durable materials like CORDURA®, a fabric known for its exceptional strength and resistance to abrasion. This reinforcement ensures the eyes withstand significant stress without fraying, thereby extending the life of the strap.

What are the Safety Features of Recovery Straps Designed Without Hooks?
Recovery straps crafted without hooks incorporate several safety features that enhance their functionality and user protection.
These design choices collectively make hook-free recovery straps a safer and more reliable option for vehicle recovery and towing tasks.
How do I know how large a recovery strap to buy?
A general rule of thumb is that each inch of width will allow you to pull out about 10,000 lbs. And the larger the width of the strap, the less “give” it has. That is why we sell 1” through 6” wide straps on our website. For most people’s use, these widths are the most common.
To ensure you choose the right recovery strap, it's important to consider the relationship between the vehicle's weight and the strap's break strength. A good guideline is to select a recovery strap with a break strength that is at least twice the weight of your vehicle. This ensures that the strap can handle the stress during a recovery operation without failing.
By combining these two approaches—considering both the width of the strap and the necessary break strength based on your vehicle’s weight—you can confidently select a recovery strap that is both safe and effective for your needs.

3” = approximately 58,800 lbs. capacity
4” = approximately 78,400 lbs. capacity
6” = approximately 117,600 lbs. capacity
How do I attach the recovery strap to another vehicle?
You should pass one end of the strap through the loop at the other end to secure it. NEVER use a knot or additional hardware to attach it. DO NOT attach it another vehicle in a way that it may be cut or damaged.
