Subject: tow strap vs tow rope ??


Rivers, MB
First combine got stuck today. Broke the hook on the 70 grade 1/2 chain pulling it out. Had a tow strap for pulling our semi out. Tried that and it worked well but its a little short. Looking around and see that I can get a tow straps (12' x 50') that is rated for 200 000lb or a 2 3/4" tow rope (2 ply braded) that is rated at 160 000 lb. Any advantage either way besides the load rating?? I would think the tow strap is easier to work with.
