Specify a tow or a winch type, and a 3-metre or 6-metre length, to match the job at hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy This Product\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrabbing the wrong strap for a recovery is more than an inconvenience — a winch strap has no give to absorb a snatch recovery's shock, and a tow strap isn't built to spool neatly around a drum. Because these come as one type or the other, you pick the strap built for the job, whether that's pulling a bakkie free of mud or bringing a boat up onto its trailer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e50mm polyester webbing\u003c\/strong\u003e – wide enough to handle serious loads yet still narrow enough for typical recovery points and winch hooks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChoice of tow or winch type\u003c\/strong\u003e – a tow strap gives under load to soak up shock, a winch strap stays flat so it spools cleanly onto a drum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3m or 6m lengths\u003c\/strong\u003e – pick the reach that suits your recovery point or winch setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-tenacity polyester build\u003c\/strong\u003e – made for repeated recovery and pulling jobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUV-resistant, weatherproofed treatment\u003c\/strong\u003e – holds up outdoors and around salt water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4x4 drivers recovering a stuck vehicle\u003c\/strong\u003e who need a tow strap that stretches to absorb the shock of a snatch recovery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBoat and trailer owners\u003c\/strong\u003e using a winch strap to pull a boat or quad smoothly onto a trailer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWorkshops and marine users\u003c\/strong\u003e repositioning equipment or handling mooring and dock work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eLocal Support from 4Matt Campers\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAsk our \u003cstrong\u003eSouth Africa\u003c\/strong\u003e team to confirm whether you need a tow or a winch strap before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Holdfast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 440720, 44070\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrap width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLengths available:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3m or 6m\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrap types:\u003c\/strong\u003e TOW or WINCH (specify on order)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-tenacity polyester webbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTreatment:\u003c\/strong\u003e UV-resistant and weatherproofed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOptional Fitment \/ Upgrade Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eTow and winch straps do different jobs, so check these points before ordering:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTell us TOW or WINCH when you order — a tow strap gives under load for a snatch recovery, while a winch strap runs flat so it spools evenly onto a drum.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDon't reach for a winch strap to snatch a vehicle out — with no give to soak up the shock, it can snap a recovery point.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePick a 3m or 6m length based on the gap between your vehicle and the recovery point or winch.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eComplete Your Setup\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor lighter jobs, look at our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/accessories\"\u003ecam straps and ratchet straps\u003c\/a\u003e instead, or browse \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/off-road-recovery\"\u003erecovery gear\u003c\/a\u003e for a complete kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the difference between tow and winch straps?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA tow strap gives slightly under load, soaking up the jolt of a snatch recovery.
