How's this for a recovery strap? (1 Viewer)

CB scored this for me while I was in FL. The orange one is your standard 20K lb strap for comparison.

I've got a 4" by 50 foot strap, also. It weighs about 50 pounds, and rolls up almost 2 feet around. I leave it in my shed.

What are you going to recover?

Your truck does not weight that much and it also could not pull something out that did weight that much.


Watch me need to take a strap from you next time we wheel.

Be nearly impossible to cinch a knot down in that big'ol boy .

Looks like a load strap off a flatbed semi trailer...

I suspect it came from a power company truck but that's just a guess, ya know the big trucks with the booms attached for doing overhead power line work. there's no rating label on it but I'm thinkin' 60k lbs based upon it's 6" width.

I've got a couple of those Ted. Mine are 6" wide and, I have to guess, only about 20' long. They came from a crane sling assembly; possibly similar to what you're thinking about. One end has an aluminum 4" triangle and the other has a 6"x8" steel oval. I use them most often for tree savers when I'm winching my semi (M12000 + 2 snatch blocks = triple line pull). Broke 2 chains but barely strained the strap.
