Keeper Tow Straps Heavy Duty with Loops - 4" x 30' Recovery Strap, 20,000 lbs Break Strength - Towing Strap for Cars, Trucks, and SUVs

I got 2 different straps. This review is for the 30ft 15,000 lbs, but I will talk about both.I already own quite a few Keeper products, and they have all served me well. I decided to grab a couple of their tow straps after I got stuck in my work vehicle, and a land scaper pulled me out with his straps. He has Keeper straps. He said they were great. He used them for pulling out bushes and stumps. I got the 20ft 11,000lbs for my personal vehicle and the 30ft 15,000lbs for my work vehicle. I already owned a tow rope, but I wanted these straps because they are stronger and longer. I ordered them a couple of months ago for a couple of reasons. Here in Massachusetts, we usually have a bunch of snow storms, and people always end up off the side of the road. I deliver in a very rural area for UPS. There are barely any asphalt roads. It's all dirt and mud lanes. I was waiting for a snowstorm or to get stuck while working to test out the straps. This year was strange because we didn't get any snow. Also, I haven't gotten stuck since I ordered them. During the warmer months, straps come in handy when we go ride trails and don't have winches. I still wanted to test these straps out, so I called my neighbor and asked him if I could tow him around the neighborhood. He said "No I'll tow you." I laughed because, as you will see in my pictures, I should have been pulling him. I like the loops on the end of the straps. It makes strapping it to the tow hooks easy and securely. These are definitely something everyone should have in their vehicle. Even if you have a car, it's still nice to have. I've got stuck quite a few times at work. Sometimes, another truck will pull up to see if I need a hand, but they don't have straps themselves. If I had straps in my vehicle, one of these trucks could have helped. The last time I got stuck, a landscaper was driving buy and had straps. He had me unstuck in seconds. Usually, if the work vehicle gets stuck, we have to call our in-house mechanic, and then he has to come with chains to free us, but it can sometimes take a couple hours if he is really busy. Both straps are well made. This 30ft 15,000lbs strap is 10 feet longer. They have the same width, but this strap is a little thicker to handle the added weight capacity. The stitching is thick and clean. This unit has a black stitch down the middle. These straps are very durable and well-made. I like that they are lighter then chains and won't rust. There isn't much more I can say about tow straps, but I think everyone should have one for emergencies.

One awesome piece of must have equipment. Even if you don't do off roading and such, it's still so good to have in your car/truck/suv. I got it Sept. 2014 and it's now March 2015. I bought it and put it under my passenger seat in my old 250 Dodge Ram 4x4. Since then I've towed 5 vehicles. A small suv that bottomed out over a hill. A full size truck in the snow. A Cadillac cts sunk in the mud. and the list goes on. One vehicle was towed for several miles. The strap has been dragged on the road, run over, it even got a 1 inch hole put in it by someone's tow hook when the strap loosed up then got tight again. I didn't even know the hole was there until we were done. That was the first tow. The strap has been fine even with the 1 inch whole in it. I don't write reviews often, but this strap was worthy of writing one. The loops are perfect to go inside a 2in receiver and then put a hitch pin through. Very well stitched too. If I want a shorter length sometimes I'll go around the towed vehicle's recovery point and then put one loop inside and other and then put both in the receiver which works surprisingly well. I guess one thing to be careful of is what you put it around. You wouldn't want it to be something sharp enough to possibly cut the strap, though this hasn't nearly happen to me yet. Finally, these straps are much, much, much safer than chains. I can't stress how careful you have to be with chains. They will break and each side sling shots back and breaks windshields back windows and hurts people bad. I've heard of people being killed with chains before. Not only that, but straps are much lighter and take up less room in the car and don't leave rust stains on stuff. Win win win(: Bottom line get a strap, this one is a good one.

Nothing to say except that this is a slam dunk deal for $25. A heavy duty 4 inch strap that gets the job done. I purchased it to pull oak logs out of a stream bed with my HD truck. Not a problem. 6000 pound log sections ripped through the ground and through a rock wall and the strap is perfect as it should be. Like that the eyes are tapered and reinforced. Need a spare at this price.

Needed a tow strap to keep in the truck. Haven't needed to use it yet but looks to be well made and will come in handy when I need it.

This is a good strap so long as your know its limitations. It is a big, burley webbing strap that is good for PULLING a vehicle, not for a snatch or shock loaded type application. Basically, despite what this strap says, it has very very little stretch, and it is not safe for a snatch recovery. A snatch recovery is a technical procedure that involves getting a running start with the vehicle, and it you don't know how to do one, you shouldn't learn how to do one from this review. The low amount of stretch means that you will apply tremendous amounts of force if you try to snatch with this, and you will either snap the strap or a metal piece; doth are potentially deadly.So, what is this good for? It's good for pulling a vehicle, which is all you will need 95% of the time. If you need to get a car from the mud or the snow, you can attach this to a secure point, ease the vehicle until the line is taunt, and then gently pull it out with this strap. The length is good for keeping the rescue vehicle on solid ground. The eye lots are big enough to feed through themselves. The stitching seems heavy duty.All in all, this is a good strap for the value. But, know its limitation, and realize that applying huge amounts of force to a line is always dangerous.

This product came same as described, quality looks good. Dropped it into the car and hope I'll never use it

👍

Delivery and product all good as expected

I haven't had to use it yet. But the build quality looks good.

Nice tight rap for storage -
