What do you think of using nylon webbing for chafe

I would not use nylon for chaffing gear myself Scotty. I
do not think
it would fare well or protect much. Again one of the best
chaffing gear
you can get is used fire hoses. They have a soft rubber
lining and 2
woven layers of cotton on the outside, they are designed
to be chaffe
proof and are very easy to set. I even use firehose for a
rub rail on
the dink, you have to replace it ever few years but it
works well.

Whats the webbing you have designed for?


I have some fire hose, it's too big. 1/2 '' dock line
through a fairlead.

Cargo straps, 2'' and 4'' wide , about 3/16'' thick.
