High-Strength Tubular Webbing 25mm – Marine-Grade Polyester, 2200kg Breaking Load

Discover strong, versatile marine webbing with the High-Strength Tubular Webbing 25mm, manufactured from 100% marine-grade polyester and designed for demanding sailing, boating, marine rigging and general-purpose strapping applications.

Featuring a minimum breaking load of 2200kg, this heavy-duty tubular webbing combines high tensile strength with the flexibility of a hollow, tubular construction.

Its 25mm (1-inch) width makes it a practical choice for creating straps, reinforcing equipment, fabricating custom webbing assemblies and carrying out suitable marine repairs.

Unlike conventional flat webbing, tubular webbing has a hollow woven structure that can provide flexibility and versatility when forming straps, loops and other webbing components.

Sold by the metre, it allows you to purchase the length required for your project.

Technical Specifications

Important: The stated 2200kg breaking load is not a safe working load limit (WLL). It must not be treated as an approved lifting, towing, fall-arrest or personal safety rating.

Heavy-Duty 25mm Tubular Webbing

This high-strength tubular webbing is designed for applications where strong, flexible woven material is required.

The 25mm width makes it suitable for a variety of compatible marine hardware and custom strapping arrangements.

The hollow construction differentiates tubular webbing from standard flat woven straps.

It can be useful when forming flexible loops, reinforcing equipment and creating webbing assemblies.

The suitability of the finished assembly depends on the webbing, stitching, hardware, loading direction and method of attachment.

Minimum Breaking Load of 2200kg

One of the main features of this product is its stated minimum breaking load of 2200kg.

This represents the minimum quoted breaking strength of the webbing material under the relevant test conditions.

It does not mean the webbing can safely support or lift 2200kg during normal use.

The strength of a completed strap or assembly may be significantly reduced by:

• Knots

• Stitching patterns

• Sharp bends

• Abrasion

• Cutting or heat damage

• Incorrectly sized hardware

• UV degradation over time

• Dynamic or shock loading

For load-bearing applications, the entire assembly must be appropriately designed and rated.

100% Marine-Grade Polyester Construction

The webbing is manufactured from 100% polyester, a widely used material for marine straps, sailmaking and outdoor textile products.

Polyester offers several useful characteristics:

Good UV Resistance

Polyester generally offers good resistance to sunlight exposure compared with some other synthetic fibres.

This makes it a popular material for marine and outdoor textile applications.

Low Stretch

Polyester typically stretches less than nylon under comparable loading conditions.

This can be beneficial when making straps intended to maintain their adjusted length.

Moisture Resistance

Polyester absorbs relatively little water, making it practical for use in marine environments.

Durability

The woven construction provides a strong, flexible material suitable for properly designed strapping and fabrication applications.

Actual service life depends on loading, environmental exposure, abrasion and maintenance.

Tubular Webbing vs Flat Webbing

Understanding the difference between tubular and flat webbing helps when choosing material for a project.

25mm Tubular Webbing

• Hollow woven construction

• Flexible profile

• Suitable for appropriate loop and strap fabrication

• Minimum 2200kg breaking load for this product

• Can be useful where a softer, more flexible webbing structure is preferred

Standard Flat Webbing

• Flat woven construction

• Commonly used for straps, buckles and sewn assemblies

• Available in different strengths and thicknesses

• May be easier to thread through certain fittings

• Breaking strengths vary by product

Neither construction is automatically stronger than the other. Always compare the actual specifications of the webbing being considered.
