ARB recovery kit
Included in ARB’s new RK12 Weekender Recovery Kit is the high-quality ARB 8,000 kg vehicle recovery strap, two type “S” galvanised 4.75t rated shackles, one set of cowgrain leather palm with cow split leather back gloves and a rugged PU-coated cotton canvas recovery bag with dual internal pockets. The pockets provide space for a recovery dampener (sold separately) to further complement your weekend recovery set-up. It is recommended that the minimum breaking strength of a ‘snatch’ strap should be between two and three times the gross vehicle mass (GVM) of any vehicle it is used with, and that the strap must also be suited to the GVM of the lighter of the two vehicles used in the recovery process. The 8,000kg recovery strap in the RK12 Weekender Recovery Kit is therefore suitable for vehicles with a GVM between the range of 2,650kg – 4,000kg encompassing all 4WD Light Commercial Vehicles and 4WD Wagons (excluding Iveco Daily and OKA).
