I’m in need of a couple tree saver straps. ARB 16ft can be bought for ~$60. Is there any reason to spend more money on stronger, rigging type, continuous loop, slings? ARB only lists the breaking strength as 26k pounds and I’m assuming that is in basket configuration. If I use the standard 5:1 WLL that means that the WLL is only 5200 pounds. I know that rigging equipment ratings are premised on overhead lifting, but my 12.5k winch on a double line pull could theoretically hit 25k of pull, which doesn’t leave much margin on a 26k MBS strap. Not that I think I will really ever pull 25k.
