KINETIC BRIDLE USE INFORMATION
Each kinetic bridle comes with a section of tubular abrasion guard that helps prevent wear to the bridle.
Each end of the bridle has an eye splice at the end which must be securely fastened to the anchor points on your vehicle.
Actual strength of the bridle will vary depending on rigging configuration. Proper configuration can give additional strength, where as improper configuration can actually decrease strength from the straight line pull numbers. Our bridles are 10' long which should give you enough length to rig the bridle and achieve proper angles. Please seek instruction if needed.
See information below about when to replace a kinetic bridle.
- Do not place bridle around sharp or angular objects.
- Not for lifting use or use during any life saving operations.
