Webbing Failure

[Knotty]

any chance the webbing is polypropylene instead of polyester? I tried a lot of webbing looking for strong and light and had some polypro fail on me (i'm at 325#) i remember someone selling a polypro strap with reflectors in it. i won't use any polypro at this point.

That's my thinking. The polypropylene straps rated at 700# just don't offer enough safety margin and this reinforces the old rule of thumb that you want to use suspension lines and straps rated over 1000#.

Time to find my old polypro straps and retire them.
