Professional quality tubular webbing that's made to last Widely used to tie up rappel systems, runners, slings, carabiners, straps and harnesses, nylon webbing straps make an ideal, multipurpose strap for gear and cargo. More durable than flat webbing, our tubular webbing is created by weaving nylon fibers into a tubular configuration and flattening the tube to form a reinforced double layer that is strong and resilient. Many professionals prefer tubular webbing over flat webbing due to its superior resistance to abrasion and wear, especially from sharp bends. Stronger than cotton or polyester options, our nylon tubular webbing is also easier to knot or loop, and holds shapes better than flat webbing. Nylon has a soft, lustrous feel. In addition, it is easy to care for as it is machine washable. We went back to the drawing board on the G-First and created and even stronger carabiner, all without adding any additional weight.
