Yip that is the way I understand it

Hence the shackles are the most dangerous flying objects, not so?

OOOOMS

That makes sense Heinrich tx! So now for another question........ Now most shackles used are rated 3.6 and 4.75 Ton. I very seldom see the bridal being used when a stuck vehicle is being recovered...... like in the pic above? Mostly a single recovery point with a bow shackle attached to a rope. So n...

Let's assume the bridal's breaking strength is 10 ton - straight.

What would the breaking strength be is it was folded in a 'V' ?

Hence my question :wink2:

What is the ideal rating when using a 10 Ton recovery strap?

Another question.....sorry :!:
Would it make a difference using a 10 Ton kinetic or pull strap?

Will advise tomorow, but you can dig it out in the meantime :wink2:

OOOOMS

According to me it has to be the same rating at least. The load on the bridal rope/strap is still the same but the load on the recovery points on the vehicle are now less as they are divided by two Tx Cassie :thumbup: With the bridal being in a "V" shape, as per attached pic, would the ro...

Theunis, 3mm is sufficient. A lot of aftermarket replacement bumpers are only 3mm anyway. You are on the right track!
