What is the difference between polypro and nylon? I'm looking for elastic webbing the same as used in messenger bags with parachute closures. I

First, this is a flat webbing. I used this to repair computer backpack bag Shoulder strap because of strap width and matched material. Nylon webbing stretches, poly does not stretch or compress like nylon material. Try either a slim, narrow gauge bungee cord ... If you are looking for webbing across a pack which my computer bag has.

Mine seems to be a tight weave of durable nylon thread. It's lightweight with durable zippers and strong, well-padded shoulder straps.

John S. - It is vinyl, not mesh. The nice mesh material in the previous straps is now a rubbery sensor attached to stretchable fabric. That's the problem I have; the fabric slides. I've resorted to wrapping one end in first aid tape to provide some traction and keep the thing in place. I always moisten the contacts, and the strap, as it has kept it from moving/sliding in the past.

Not sure what they call them. If you have moderate sewing skills you can make them with a bit of elastic band from Wally World. A really good product is ITW Web Dominators that work very well. Come in colors to match webbing and plenty of YouTube videos on their implementation.

Feels like parachute material. Tag says 100% nylon. You want to be able to slide easily on fabric.

I have seen the wrapped poly and solid. I used the solid poly in my big blue and it seems to work great. Good Luck!

Hi Robert, These OP/TECH system connectors use a 3/4" webbing with the regular OP/TECH clip that fits all of their system components. All of their plastic clip buckle connectors fit with each other, regardless of the webbing width they use for their straps (3/8", 3/4", 1"). If you want to get the OP/TECH clips that are for 1" wide webbing, you can get the Reporter/Backpack Connectors like these and cut them off for your use; http://www.amazon.com/OP-TECH-USA-System-Connector/dp/B0010HA68I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1388952186&sr=8-1&keywords=optech+backpack Also, the Dual Harness uses 1" webbing for the rear slide clips. I have tried to find clips that would fit the OP/TECH system but have not been able to find any. I tried the OEM for OP/TECH but nothing fits; http://www.duraflexgroup.com/product.aspx?categoryID=20&sort=backpack I believe that OP/TECH gets custom clips made so no one else can sell them and make them cheaper. I buy the OP/TECH straps and cut off the buckels for my own use, that way I know everything fits. Hope I was of some help. I put the OP/TECH products through some extremely harsh field work and they keep working, so I made only two of my own straps to fit scientific equipment, all other gear I use has genuine OP/TECH stuff and it all works fantastic. Thanks for the question and all the best in 2014. Regards, Michel

AR_Kayaker, Not anymore. I called Polar and they no longer make the SmartFabric straps. This is the "new" softstrap, and the contacts are now a rubbery deal. Less static buildup, but the chest strap is a much cheaper, more slippery material. That, and the hook cover is pretty minimal; been rowing on a Concept2 daily since November 24, and I've worn a hole on either side of my ribcage from the tag that supposed to protect you from the metal hook end. It's nowhere near the quality of the Wearlink that was pictured here, but this is what they're making now. I'm adding some First Aid tape, and rowing on. AR_Kayaker, Not anymore.

It comes with polypropelene rope about 5/16 dia. I recently replaced mine with 7/16 nylon and it works fine. I don't think it will handle anything larger.

I am quite sure it was nylon but I disliked it..did not seem rugged one way or the other and the non-gusseted opening on the main compartment was poor...bad construction all the way around.

My sheath is the nylon material like used in a rigger belt or parachute harness. Has a pouch on the front that can used for a multi- tool or small survival items. Very durable but a little to massive if you were planning on trying to carry it concealed or semi- concealed. Knifw is excellant... and I own a lot of knives.

Higher blend of nylon,, it is a nice training rope. I also need an 8' training rope which I couldn't find anywhere. I ended up going to Lowe's buying nylon cord, a D ring, and some small cord to wrap the loop around the D ring to and made every size of training rope I needed for a fraction of the cost if you are a do-it your-selfer.

I've been using two regular mesh bags, but I hear some people have been using nylon pantyhose. I've been forgetful as to buy a pair and try this method but I hear that it helps to pick up sand as well.

I honestly don't know and how WOULD I know? The mesh is NYLON. I have never heard of BPA being used in nylon. As for the plastic handles, well, I guess you should ask someone who might know....like the seller.
