Understand the different materials used in strap webbing, their properties, benefits, and the inventory of available strap webbing materials.
Strap Webbing Material Features & Specifications
There are a variety of materials that can be used for straps in applications across various industries. Strap webbing should be designed with flat, tightly woven materials for reinforcement and weight-bearing capabilities. Offering favorable characteristics for durable straps, we supply cotton, nylon, polypropylene, and polyester webbing materials to match your project specifications.Cotton Webbing for Straps
Cotton webbing is made from naturally occurring fibers, an organic alternative to synthetic materials. This material option is lightweight, moisture-wicking, and soft on sensitive skin, where some other materials might chafe. Strap webbing made from cotton is versatile, but is best used for applications where tensile strength is not a factor due to the variations in the natural fiber.Nylon Strap Webbing Material
With a good combination of strength and stretch, nylon is a versatile material for strap webbing. Nylon webbing can be used in a wide range of applications, from tactical gear to furniture and apparel. This material features a high strength-to-weight ratio, making it ideal for heavy-duty and lightweight applications, and it is soft for use against skin without irritation.Polypropylene for Strap Webbing
Similar to nylon webbing, polypropylene or polypro webbing is an economical choice for strap webbing material. Polypropylene is flexible, lightweight, offering tensile strength between 600 and 1000 lbs., and water-proof, providing flotation capabilities. Great for repairing marine-based applications, polypropylene webbing retains its shape and offers increased resistance to acid, alkaline, oil, and grease than nylon webbing materials.Polyester Strap Webbing
Polyester webbing is strong and durable while also being lightweight and versatile for a number of applications. Featuring resistance to abrasion and UV rays, polyester webbing also lacks stretch, making it ideal for applications where movement is discouraged, like tie-downs. This material offers semi-water resistance, preventing mold, mildew, and rot from affecting your applications.Material Options for Strap Webbing Applications
