¹Break strength is the applied load at which the Y Strop fails
²Maximum GVW is the maximum recommended gross vehicle weight of a severely bogged vehicle for a specified Y Strop
³Severely bogged vehicle is judged as resting on its axles or chassis. Resistance force is 75% of vehicle weight. Applicable for skid mounted equipment.
Strop weights are approximate and are subject to change without notice.
