WARNING -   Prior to the use of any product from this catalog or website, carefully read and follow all applicable instructions, warnings and safety information enclosed and attached to the product.

WARNING -   It is the responsibility of the Owner/User to evaluate the compatibility of any cargo securing device or other product for any particular need or use. Check all applicable federal, provincial, state, industry, trade association and local regulations prior to use.

WARNING -   All ratings referenced in this catalog or website reference only products in new condition.  Please note that used, aged, worn, damaged, misused products, and/or products over exposed to the environment and/or chemicals can significantly reduce strength and usability.  Prior to use, all products should be inspected and any worn, cut, aged, damaged, misused, overused, or improperly maintained product should be taken out of service and/or replaced immediately.

WARNING -   In most cases, the working load limits referenced in this catalog or website are rated at one-third of the breaking strength. All strength references are based on a straight pull application of new/unused product.  Products subjected to age, wear and deterioration reduce the product’s strength capacity.  All assemblies or systems are only as strong as their weakest component, including the point of attachment.  Load directions other than straight can result in a significant reduction in breaking strength.  CAUTION: Never exceed the working load limit of any component.  Listed breaking strengths do not imply any particular working load limit.

The purpose of this warning statement is to be used as a standard to identify only those risks that are most common.   The ultimate responsibility and understanding of proper use and application of the products rest with the end user.  Alpine Offroad is harmless against any claims, loss or expenses related to damages and injuries as a consequence from the use of product sold by Alpine Offroad 

NEVER EXCEED THE WORKING LOAD LIMIT (WLL).  ALL ASSEMBLIES ARE ONLY AS STRONG AS THEIR WEAKEST POINT, INCLUDING THE POINT OF ATTACHMENT.

  • Inspect the entire webbing strap assembly before each use. Do not use if there are signs of damage, including, but not limited to holes, tears, cuts, frays, snags or broken/worn stitching in the webbing.  Or if buckles and/or end fittings are damaged, deformed, corroded or if any nicks, cracks or gouges exist in the webbing strap assembly.
  • Avoid anchoring webbing strap assemblies around sharp edges or pulling over any potentially abrasive surfaces.  Corner protectors should be used in accordance with the law and recommended standards of the Web Sling & Tie Down Association (WSTDA).
  • Exposure to the environment, such as extreme temperatures and/or chemicals, can cause damage to webbing strap assemblies.
  • Do not attempt to repair webbing strap assemblies.  If damage or defect is discovered webbing strap assembly should immediately be removed from service.
  • All webbing straps are solely for the purpose of load control, and should not be used for any type of lifting, raising or lowering applications.
  • Never exceed the working load limit (WLL) of any webbing strap assembly.  Subjecting webbing strap assemblies to loads beyond their stated WLL can result in damage to cargo, personal injury and/or death.  The WLL of any webbing strap assembly is only as strong as its weakest point, including the point of attachment.
  • Strength of webbing strap assemblies are significantly reduced if load path is not in a straight line.
  • Handle extensions (lever bars/“cheater bars”/extenders) should not be used on hardware when tensioning. 
  • Refer to the applicable Federal, Provincial, State, and Local regulations.
  • Refer to the Web Sling & Tie Down Association‘s (WSTDA) recommended operating practices for specific details.
