    1/2" webbing source

    I'm looking for 1/2" poly webbing for my bridge. Sailrite is the only place I can find that has it in stock, DIY Gear Supply is out at the moment. Anyone know of other options?

    Would something like mule tape be an option?

    I'm not sure if there's an advantage of tubular vs flat, but the tubular is what Griz uses.

    The tubular polyester webbing has a very soft hand and is generally easier to sew multiple layers compared to standard webbing. I've used tubular, standard and 5/8" mule tape but the tubular is my preferred choice of materials for this use.
