Backpacks/handbags: shoulder strap length adjustment

Outdoor equipment: tent wind rope, trekking pole wrist strap

Pet products: leash, chest strap

Clothing accessories: waist belt, work clothing buckle

Sports equipment: fitness protective gear, luggage straps

1.Types

By structure and function, they can be divided into:

Type

Feature

Applicable scenes

Single-hole slider

Basic single-layer structure, easy adjustment

Lightweight backpacks, pet collars

Double-hole slider

Double-layer reinforcement, strong load-bearing capacity

Mountaineering packs, heavy-duty baggage straps

Serrated anti-slip model

Serrated teeth on the inside prevent the webbing from slipping

Sports protective gears, high-frequency stretch scenes

Smooth-side model

Smooth on the inside, easy to adjust quickly

Apparel waistbands, decorative webbing

Side-opening model

Side-opening, easy to put on and take off Needed Side opening Side opening, easy to put on and take off the webbing

Equipment that needs to be removed frequently (e.g. outdoor equipment covering)

2.Key parameters for selection

Material:

Engineering plastics (POM/nylon): lightweight and corrosion resistant

Metal (zinc alloy/stainless steel): high load capacity and durability

Size:

Hole Diameter (e.g. 10mm/15mm/20mm) Adaptable to webbing width.

Thickness (e.g. 3mm/5mm) affects tensile strength.

3.Suggestions for selection

Light adjustment: single-hole plastic (low cost)

Heavy-duty scenarios: double-hole metal (anti-breakage)

Dynamic use (e.g. pet traction): side-opening + anti-slip teeth

Tip: According to the webbing thickness, pulling force demand and environmental corrosion (such as seawater / low temperature) comprehensive selection, to ensure safety and longevity.
