Overview
A complete 9-piece kinetic recovery kit built around ARB's 17,600 lb snatch strap, packed in a rugged PVC bag. It's the strap-and-shackle side of recovery — add your own winch if you run one.
Key features
- 17,600 lb snatch strap with 20% genuine stretch for smoother kinetic recoveries
- 19,800 lb competition snatch block to redirect or double your winch line
- 9,900 lb winch extension strap so the winch reaches stuck rigs without moving the recovery vehicle
- 26,000 lb tree trunk protector that spreads load and won't girdle a tree
- Two 4.75-ton (19 mm) galvanized bow shackles plus a recovery damper and leather gloves
- 600gsm PVC bag, 20 x 12 x 12 in, with named compartments and a #10 zipper
Use cases
Most owners reach for it on self- and buddy-recoveries when a full-size 4x4 or overland build sinks in sand or mud. Because everything is sized as a set and color-coded, you're not piecing a kit together part by part — you grab one bag and you have the strap, the extension, the snatch block, and the shackles ready to go.

What vehicles is this kit sized for?
The 17,600 lb snatch strap suits a gross vehicle weight of about 5,800 to 8,800 lb, which covers most full-size trucks, SUVs, and overland tow rigs.
Does it include a winch?
No. This is the strap, shackle, and snatch-block side of recovery. A 9,900 lb winch extension strap is included so your own winch can reach farther, but you supply the winch.
What does the recovery damper do?
It drapes over the strap during a pull. If a line lets go, the weight forces it toward the ground instead of letting it whip back. It also gives you a clean spot to set shackles and gloves.
Why does the snatch strap stretch?
The 20% stretch lets the strap store energy as the recovery vehicle rolls forward, then release it to pop the stuck rig out. That spring action eases the shock load on both vehicles compared to a stiff tow strap.
What's the snatch block for?
It redirects a winch line for a straighter pull when your anchor isn't lined up, or it doubles your effective pulling power. It's rated 19,800 lb and the tapered groove keeps the line seated.
Why use the tree trunk protector instead of wrapping the strap around a tree?
The wide 26,000 lb webbing spreads the load so it won't girdle and kill the tree, and it keeps your strap from getting chewed up on the bark.
How do I keep the gear in good shape?
Rinse and dry the straps before packing them. The 600gsm PVC bag wipes clean, and the named compartments keep each piece sorted so nothing gets buried.
How do I pick the right strap for the recovery?
Match the strap to the stuck vehicle's weight and stay inside the rated range. Don't snatch a rig heavier than the strap is sized for.
