Woma Ultralight Tree Straps (pair)
Australian Made
$25.00
Named after the woma python (Aspidites ramsayi), also known commonly as Ramsay's python, the sand python and simply the woma, it is a species of snake in the family Pythonidae. The species is endemic to Australia. Once common throughout Western Australia, it has become critically endangered in some regions (Wikipedia).
The Woma ultralight tree straps are made from UHMWPE, one of the strongest fibres available. This webbing is incredibly strong, durable, lightweight and packs down incredibly small.
The Woma 5 weighs just 5 g/m with a tensile strength of over 690kg.
Woma 10 weighs 10 g/m with a tensile strength of 1500kg.
The webbing is ideal to use for hammock suspension as tree straps with whoopie slings or as an all in one suspension system using a Beckett Hitch or J-Bend. It is not to be used in any of the cinch buckles currently on the market.
The Woma webbing will also have a tendency to fold over on itself and will require flattening out by running your thumb and forefinger along it after use especially if you have tied a Beckett Hitch or J-Bend - The Woma 10 is much easier to flatten out again so is what we recommend for most people unless you want to save every gram.
Recommended maximum weight is 150kg for Woma 5 and 200kg for Woma 10.
