The material of the sling and the tow rope is similar, and the sling has a larger load than the tow rope, so can the sling be used as a tow rope?

From the point of view of load, the sling can be fully qualified for the position of the trailer rope, but the trailer rope has a feature that the sling does not have, that is, the trailer rope has good elasticity and ductility, and the sling is a static rope, and its own No elasticity and extensibility.

If the sling is used on a stable road instead of the trailer rope for simple towing, it is not a big problem, but if the car is lying on the road with potholes or off-road, the towing ability of the sling is far less than that of the trailer. rope.

In this case, it will involve the ejection and dragging of the rescue vehicle, that is, the trailer rope in the initial state is in a relaxed state, and the trailer rope is tightened by the instantaneous deceleration of the car, giving a sudden pulling force to the lying nest car. The car pulled out of the mud puddle. Sudden force requires the rope to act as a buffer to protect the bumper. If the rope does not have good elasticity like a sling, there is no buffer as protection at the moment of pulling. Rip off the bar.

This is the main reason why slings cannot be used as tow ropes.
