The plastic triangle ring on my ridge line broke while I was tightening down a CF tarp in cold weather. I have the option to send it back to Hammock Gear to get it repaired.
I'm wondering if the loop on the tarp itself that holds the triangle ring gets un-sewn and re-sewn, will it somehow make that area of the tarp weaker under load? Has anyone had a similar experience? Should I get another plastic triangle ring, try a different method or just tie a knot to the loop?
Just wanted to check out some opinions before I sent the tarp in on Monday. I guess I'm worried that if there is something too strong attached to the loop, the tarp may rip instead of a plastic ring failing.
Thanks!
