webbing straps
 

hi, does anyone know wre i can get the 1 1/4" wide webbing straps for a mk1 carrier to hold the tarp cover on the back through the footman loops?. I cant seem to locate the correct looking straps, anyone know what the original length was?, need a set of two in tan colour.

I have a 10yrd roll of 1-1/2 and a 10yrd roll of 1-1/8th webbing but saddly no 1-1/4 webbing. If either of these are of help drop me a line. Here is a pic of the 2 rolls

Hi Kevin: If you really get stuck and can't seem to locate the authentic straps, I have a bunch of 1 inch wide od green straps. They are approx. 38 inches long or 97 cm. and have a loop on the one end, next to the buckle, to take a footman loop. The buckle is the standard WW11 "alligator" buckle you find on jeep webbing. Push comes to shove, you throw it in the washing machine with a load of bleach for a cycle and you'll probably get what you need color wise. If interested I'll try to get a photo to you. I haven't quite mastered how to get photos onto MLU. Cheers...Robert

I have some original NOS 1943 C marked webbing straps which are just on 1" with brass buckle - they're about 26 or so inches long. Send me a PM if you're interested.

Hi Kevin,
try looking on-line for US khaki cotton 1-1/4" military style belts, "Dickies" is one brand that comes to mind. The types with those US quick release buckles.
You will have to supply your own brass chapes though.
Cheers,
Dave
