When You Need A Tow Strap, Please Contact DMSLING.

When people are driving a car and suddenly encounter some malfunctions causing it to break down or get stuck in sand, mud, snow, requiring towing, what should they do? At this time, a tow strap, also known as a recovery strap, can help. It has the characteristics of being lightweight, highly flexible, strong, and easy to operate.

Typically, the tow strap, or snatch strap is made of high-strength polyester industrial yarn and metal hooks at both ends. It is designed to tow a freely moving vehicle behind another. Specially designed hooks or chain links can easily connect to the vehicle. Tow straps are lighter than steel cables and chains, do not rust, are not prone to corrosion or mold, waterproof, and do not cause rebound injuries to the human body. They are particularly suitable for storage in car trunks or toolboxes.

Choosing the right snatch strap for the weight of your vehicle is crucial. Tow straps produced by DMSLING can be customized for load and length requirements. We can also design from single-layer to 4-layer, allowing you to achieve the desired width for the required strength. More layers compared to a single layer can make the belt narrower with higher breaking strength.

The maximum tensile strength of the recovery strap varies depending on different materials and manufacturing methods, ranging from 1 ton to 10 tons, with a safety factor of 2-3 times. Therefore, the choice must be based on the weight of your car. For general passenger cars weighing less than 2 tons, choosing a tow strap with a load capacity of 2 tons and a maximum breaking strength of 5 tons is suitable.

Choose according to the structure of the vehicle's towing ring. The size and fixing method of the tow strap hook are also different, so you must choose the tow strap based on the type of towing ring on the vehicle. If it is stuck and the tow strap hook is large, but the trailer ring on the car is small, it may not be salvageable. That's where assistance can be helpful.

Regardless of the type of tow strap or snatch strap you use, caution must be exercised because the strap may break or snap, launching at high speed and potentially causing damage to the car or even injuring people. Stay away from any onlookers at a certain distance from the tow strap.

For towing within city limits, the tension between vehicles and tow pins does not need to be too tight to prevent the tow strap from breaking. In extreme rescue situations, place a small flag or soft object in the center of the tow strap to effectively prevent the broken snatch strap and hook from flying back and causing harm to the surroundings.
