Recovery Strap vs Tow Strap
People always ask how to choose the recovery strap vs tow strap when their vehicle doesn’t work. which strap used to the car when it’s stuck in the mud or snow and which strap can be used for the car broken down on the road.
There is some difference between the recovery strap and towing strap, here we will clearly explain to you:
Recovery Strap
A recovery strap is used for the vehicle get stuck in some bad situation and you’ve tried your best, but the car is still in the ditch, then you can choose the recovery strap with a workable vehicle to pull your vehicle out of the ditch, instead of calling the towing service from the trucker.
The recovery strap is made of Nylon webbing material and there are loops at each end of the strap. As all of you know, nylon has the character of stretch. When you want to use the recovery strap to snatch your car, you need to connect one loop of the nylon tow strap at the back of the workable/moving vehicle and attach another loop of the flat nylon strap to the front of the car which needs to be recovered. When the moving car starts to move forward, the stuck car will be pulling out easily. But before you do all the action, please make sure that your recovery straps are in good condition, which means there’s no abrasion or damage, or else, it may increase the possibility of breakage of the strap during the process. People sometimes also call it” snatch strap”.
Of course, you can choose the hardware to go with your recovery strap when you want to tow your car. The recovery strap is better than the chain to do the job since it is safer, easy to use, and lightweight. Please also pay attention to the storage of the strap, avoid sunlight and overheated environment, wash it only with water.
Tow Strap
The biggest difference between the recovery strap and the towing strap is the stretch of webbing. Since generally, the best tow strap is made of polyester and has less stretch than nylon, normally it is used for tow a free-moving vehicle on the road. This polyester tow strap can’t be used for recovery job, because its less stretch character may cause the breakage under the pressure of sudden traction.
