Universal Security for Fire Equipment and Hose The R&B Fabrications Single Gripper Strap is the ultimate multi-purpose utility strap for fire ground operations. Sold as a set of four, these adjustable cinch straps are constructed from industrial 3,000 lb. test webbing and feature rugged stainless steel buckles. Whether you are bundling a "Cleveland Load," securing a ladder, or lashing equipment to a truck, these straps provide a rock-solid hold that won't slip under tension.
Key Features
- Industrial Strength: Made from heavy-duty 2-inch black nylon webbing with a tensile strength rating of 3,000 lbs, ensuring the strap never fails before the gear does.
- Stainless Steel Hardware: Equipped with corrosion-resistant stainless steel buckles that allow for smooth tightening and quick release, even when wearing thick structural gloves.
- Massive Adjustability: Expands from a compact 8” diameter up to 43”, making it versatile enough to secure anything from a small tool bundle to a large diameter hose coil.
- Weather Resistant: The webbing is specially treated to resist mold, mildew, and rot, ensuring longevity even when stored wet in hose beds or compartments.
- Set of Four: Sold as a complete kit of four straps, allowing you to outfit an entire hose pack or secure multiple tools with a single purchase.
- Gloved Operation: The buckle design creates a large purchase point for easy manipulation in low-light or smoky conditions.
Why It Matters In the fire service, "if you can't secure it, you can't carry it." Flimsy cargo straps break or rot over time. The Single Gripper Strap is built to the same standard as life-safety gear. It is the "Swiss Army Knife" of hose management—simple, indestructible, and infinitely useful for creating impromptu handles, lashes, or bundles on the fly.
How to Use Wrap the strap around your hose bundle or equipment. Feed the webbing end through the stainless steel buckle. Pull tight to cinch the load; the teeth will grip the webbing securely. To release, lift the buckle tab. Use all four straps to create a stable, multi-point securement for long hose loads (like a Denver load).
Technical Overview This product (SGS-1) differs from the "Hose Wrapper" (SGS-2) in its simplicity. It lacks the reflective trim and specific "wrapper" leverage points, focusing instead on raw strength and utility with a traditional buckle system.
