    When next in the market I will give them a try, don't have to worry about them wearing with grit getting caught up and having to wash the cloth/elastic knit ones. Just want to hope they last about three times as long.

    I wouldn't consider them a snatch strap at all. It's a nylon rope, with
    Smooth stretch of up to 20% to assist recovery
    .

    They also have some "interesting" comments about their other products as replacements for the usually used products.

    ARB snatch straps are 100% nylon with 20% stretch too though, so on paper they should perform a recover exactly the same...

    See: http://www.arb.com.au/products/arb-r...ipment/straps/

    I've used 50t versions in the mining industry - seemed to go alright despite the arduous conditions.

    Bit pricey though?

    I used one to tow a 60 series towing a 22 foot dual axle road van out of a cutting at North Straddie...excellent gear. Very smooth towing.

    Cheers

    they seem awfully expensive to me , for a jobbie that does the same thing as any of the common brands, which I will not name as I might miss one and some one will complain.
    just buy one of the common brands, if they are rated with the correct tag.

    The way i see it is, it's a LR D90 it not going to need Snatching very often So this Water/Dirt resistant SnatchStrap will last the life of the D90.
    If i find you stuck need assistance & you don't have any recovery gear then you going to be digging yourself out over night
