Interesting experience yesterday, a mate stuck in the mud grabs out his brand new (unlabeled) snatch strap.
You can guess the rest, one big tug and it snaps, luckily everyone was out of firing range and the bits of strap ended up under the snatching vehicle and wacking the spare on the snatched vehicle (it was being pulled backwards).
Enquiry as to the brand of strap led to a sheepish admission that it was one of those "S....... Cheap" ones that you can get for 1/2 price of the "popular" brands.
Ended up being attached to a "popular" strap that got him out OK ...................idiot!!
Another life lesson.
Cheers
