Do not ever use a snatch strap as part of a winching operation, to tow a vehicle, or in circumstances where intricate recovery moments are required … and never use them to pull out something like a tree stump unless you want one imbedded in your back window.
Always use a damper on your straps and never connect your strap to a non-rated point

Choosing the correct snatch strap MBS to suit your recovery

To choose the correct strap, it needs a rating of two-to-three times the GVM of your vehicle. So if your vehicle weighs 2500kg, you need a strap with a minimum-breaking limit of 5000kg-7500kg. This is why 8000kg snatch straps are most commonly found in four-wheel drives, as they should cover this amount of load with some margin for error. If you tow a camper trailer or van, don’t forget to include this in your weight calculations as well.

Remember, When it comes to snatch straps it isn't a game of 'the highest MBS wins', Snatch straps are effective as they stretch up to 20%, and quickly snap back unleashing the stored energy to un-stuck your 4WD. If you select a strap that has a rating too high for your vehicle, it won't stretch enough to effectively recover your vehicle, and could shock load the system, sending weak parts flying. 
We have a range of 4WD recovery gear available in our store 

Know before you buy

Before you buy recovery gear

Recovery gear stores enormous energy when it's working, so the right ratings and the right attachment points matter more than anything else in the kit.

  1. Rated recovery points

    Only attach straps to rated recovery points. Never to a tow ball, tow bar, tie-down point or tow hook: that warning is required on every recovery strap sold in Australia.

  2. Strap strength

    A snatch strap's minimum breaking strength should be about 2 to 3 times the gross vehicle mass of the lighter vehicle. Wet straps are weaker.

  3. Winch size

    Choose a winch rated at least 1.5 times your vehicle's gross weight (Warn). Size it on the loaded vehicle, not the empty one.

  4. Shackles and dampers

    Use rated shackles (ARB says 3.25 t minimum for bow shackles), put a damper over the strap, and keep everyone back at least 1.5 times the strap's length (ARB).

Common questions

Can I use my tow ball as a recovery point?

No. The national recovery strap standard requires a warning never to attach straps to tow balls, tow bars, tie-down points or tow hooks. Use rated recovery points only.

What strap rating do I need?

A minimum breaking strength of around 2 to 3 times the gross vehicle mass of the lighter vehicle, under the recovery strap safety standard.

What size winch do I need?

At least 1.5 times your vehicle's gross weight (Warn), based on the loaded vehicle with all its accessories.

Snatch strap or kinetic rope?

Both stretch to store energy for a recovery. Whichever you use, it isn't for lifting or towing, and it must go between rated points with a damper draped over it.

What should be in a basic recovery kit?

A strap rated for your vehicle, rated shackles or soft shackles, a damper, gloves and recovery boards. A winch extension strap and tree trunk protector help if you have a winch.
