This patterned polyester strap is used to clip onto a bag or camera to either drape around your neck or hang off your shoulder. Flat nylon, polyester and, patterned polyester webbing is a popular choice for this strap because it has a "smooth feel" touch to it. When worn around the neck it will not cause any kind of discomfort as far as "digging" into your neck or a rough scratchy feeling. Heavyweight or lightweight polypropylene is also common because it is great for the outdoors.  It has excellent UV protection, and doesn't absorb water quickly giving it a high resistance to rot & mildew.

If using these straps for a heavy item, please keep in mind that we recommend only holding 1/3 of the breaking strength of the webbing.  For example, patterned polyester 1 1/2" has a breaking strength of 4971 pounds. so, it has a working load of 1657 pounds. However, keep in mind a strap is only as strong as it's weakest link. So, you need to consider end hardware (snap hooks, bolt snaps, carabiners, etc...), and stitching. Other polyester facts, polyester has a thickness of 0.06 to 0.065 of an inch, melting point of 500 degrees fahrenheit.
