BRIDLE - 100Tonne or 100000kgs Recovery Bridle or Equaliser Strap
Product Overview
Engineered for extreme recovery operations, this 100Tonne or 100000kgs Recovery Bridle or Equaliser Strap is an essential tool for heavy vehicle recovery. Designed with minimal stretch to maintain precise control, it attaches securely to both sides of the towed or winched vehicle, allowing your recovery or snatch strap to move freely from side to side. This ensures a smoother, more stable, and balanced pull by granting both the towing and towed vehicles independence of movement.
By distributing the load across dual anchor points, this heavy-duty bridle minimizes potential structural damage to your vehicle and significantly increases overall recovery safety.
Understanding Your Load Ratings & Rigging Configuration
Engineered for peak versatility and safety, this product functions as a high-capacity multi-leg sling.
-
Basket / U-Shape Configuration (2 Anchor Points): Rigging the bridle in a U-shape distributes the weight across two legs, effectively doubling the capacity to achieve its full 100,000 kg breaking strength.
-
Straight-Pull Configuration: When utilized as a single-line straight-pull tow strop, the entire load concentrates onto a single path, resulting in a rated breaking strength of 50,000 kg.
