What do you think of using nylon webbing for chafe

around.



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?

What do you use for chafe protection Joe? I've been
using reinforced water hose--taped on.

I like leather too buy it is a bit more work to find
the material, cut it to size and then sew it on.




Where do you get used fire hose? Just walk up to a fire station and ask
doe their old ones?
