I've always used them Cracking firm They used to have a stand @ Donnington

I've ordered me some bits & bobs from Damar Webbing & they delivered while I was away

Selection of 5 ton 50mm recovery strops

1 x 2000mm in Black to be used as a bridle between my two front pig tail hooks.
1 x 4000mm in Red for general recovery & towing on the queens highways.
1 x 6000mm in Red for general recovery.
1 x 8000mm in Red for general recovery.

2 x Bespoke (very short strap on ratchet & reversed hook) 800Kg ratchet straps in Red for securing the coffin box in the rear of Fiery.

1 X endless 800Kg ratchet strap in Red to replace my existing worn one.

4 x 3000mm 800Kg cam buckle straps in Red.
(one to secure my Zarges box another to stop the coffin box flying forwards in an accident & the other two just to replace my existing yellow ones).

2 x 1000mm 800Kg cam buckle straps in Red.
(both to be cut & secured to the sides of the coffin box for securing the lid in place)

Do you see a common theam here I know it's a bit shallow isn't it

I do already have the 4, 6 & 8 meter 5 ton recovery strops in Blue as they matched the colours of my last truck But Red will look better inside Fiery I also have more than enough cam buckle straps but they are not Red either

Anyways Very happy with the service & products from Damar Top chaps

Shame they only list one small size of shackle, this post reminded me I wanted a few bits and pieces.

 

[Crispin]

I just got some rated shackles off fleabay for £12. 2 x 3.75t and 1 6t.
Pity the postage is 10...

Sent from TapaTalk

I can get them localy for sensible money, several lifting gear supply and manufacturing places places round here but on-line with free delivery would have been even more convenient

 

[Crispin]

the postage is a stinker Screwfix (walking distance) sell them but they £12 a shackle hey ho...

I won't be needing them this weekend anyway

You might need one to connect your tree strop and winch hook when the Atrac doesn't cut it again

(Sorry I couldn't resist getting the banter started )

PS: I've got shackles for when I need you to recover me from the forest...again!

 

[Crispin]

getting the disclaimer in now: My ATs on the rear are not looking too good so if there is any mud...

You don't need rated shackles All you need is one 20mm 'D' shackle, one 20mm Bow shackle & one 1/2" 'D' shackle for locking off your Hi-Lift if you have one

All of this according to Mr Goodwinch He also goes on to say you'll never break a 20mm shackle before you break whatever it's attached to

 

[Crispin]

I'm not fussed on if they rated or not other than I'm sh1t with measurements so if I did it by "mm wide" I would end up getting something Tommo could use on his ship

They're even closer to me than Milners. Really top lads. Will make up anything you want on the spot. I had a winch extension strap made. I asked how long could they make it.

The reply?

5 kilometres

I settled on 30 meters.

Damar does it yet again.
I needed some new straps and fixings for lashing my Adventure bike to my trailer for an event this month. I wasn't keen on what I had - not for a bike weighing 270kg and worth quite a bit too.

I popped round to Damar at lunchtime. Met by chap on the desk who listened intently without me having to explain twice. He came back with components and a design. OK he said, how many and how long? We settled on 4 at 2m each. In 20 mins they were made and I was on my way home. £7 each!!!!

Just brilliant. And not a hint of Brexit whatsoever!
