Buckle durability? I'm a big dude weighing in at 295lbs and want to know if I can trust these buckles/straps

They are sturdy. I've had no issues but I'm 185lbs. I use then for pull-ups, dips, etc.

I am 155lbs and I have no problem with the buckles slipping. I've seen somewhere in their instructions that if your buckles are slipping you haven't followed the mounting instructions. In any case, the belts and buckles seem sturdy. Not sure for your body weight though.

They hold my 225lbs at 6'2" with no issue and without clasping... No sure about warranty. BTW this isn't Sharon. Sharon is 120lbs

You know, I'm not sure but I was using a 30,000lb strap pulling a completely stuck jeep more than once with no issue, including hard acceleration snapping. No issue and it is beefy.

I think you will be fine. They are high quality straps and rings. Mine have held up with lots of abuse over the past couple months.

Don't know for sure but the cushioned portion of the strap could be an issue since it stretches (elongates) a bit as you add weight. I've carried 10-15 pounds and that seemed like a fair amount of stretching on the strap. If I had to speculate, I'd say no to 25 pounds , look for a strap that doesn't stretch. Hope this makes sense.

For me, the answer is an unequivocal yes. This fall I wore the harness nine days straight under a Sitka day pack while hiking/hunting some pretty aggressive terrain (lots of ups and downs to climb and lots of blow-downs to scramble over). No interference with the buckles or straps, yet plenty of support for some heavy Leupold McKinley 8x42 binoculars. Easy to get on and off, stable in use, and comfortable. Hope this helps.

Whoops, I made a mistake, my pants are not 1000 Denier (duh), but the Ripstop material, which is still very tough material. Anyhoo, you won't have a problem with them.

I'd describe the straps as very rugged. The sun will put more wear and tear on these straps than you will.

I weigh in at about 260 Lb. and I use the strap all the time with no problem

I can hang off of one ring with all of my bodyweight just fine, and I weigh 165. So to answer your question, I do not know if only one strap/buckle would support your own bodyweight, but using both at once you should be just fine!

It should hold a good amount of weight. If the buckles are slipping(moving) out of place, check to see if you have them fastened correctly. They shouldn't move.

Hi - The 25lb weight straps fit perfectly on my old Body by Jake trainer. They are nice and strong and thick. Works great. Thanks.

Yes, these straps are very useful when lifting heavy. They stay in place and do not move even after several reps. I can lift much more weight with these on and my writs don't hurt afterwards.

I use this with my whole body weight (200lb give or take). No signs of wear. I would think you should be fine. I don't think I'd go mountain climbing with it or anything...

We have put up to 385 lbs on ours and I was more worried about my hammock giving out than the tree straps. They are very sturdy! You might also be interested to know that they stand up to all weather conditions and still perform just as well. We left ours on the trees through a harsh 6 month winter and they are just as strong as they were last summer when they were brand new.

In my opinion, the strap is pretty sturdy. My computer weighs a lot more than my husbands and I have no problem at all maneuvering it around. I hope that helps!

It does not look like straps only are available, but their web site does have an E-mail contact us page. I do have to ask, how on earth do the straps tear off? I've had only 2 pairs in 30 years and still have the original straps in good condition. Not much pressure is needed to hold the body in place, try wearing shoes if you are concerned about slipping out. I hope that helps - Randy PS ratchet straps is what I commented on, not the knee bend loops.
