Tubular nylon webbing

[Jessica 0]

Does anyone know where to buy tubular webbing that's wider than 1"? That's the biggest I can find from rigging suppliers.

Also, why does searching for "tubular nylon webbing" bring up a crapload of porn sites?

Skydiving is for cool people only

Do you have any sports shops locally? I've bought some from them in the climbing supplies section. 2" stuff. Also, I think I saw some in the ParaGear catalog. There's some here too: http://www.kitebuilder.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=32_106&products_id=497

Because it works so much better than Type 3

I work at a local camping outfitters and we carry 2" tubular nylon webbing in our climbing department, so I would look at whatever outdoor stores are in your area that carry climbing equipment (REI, Great Outdoor Provision Company, etc).

narrow webbings and tapes. Here are two:

Bally Ribbon Mills, www.ballyribbon.com,
Narricot Ind., www.narricot.com.

They both supply the skydiving and general sports industry amongst others.

You may find that there are minimums of quantity to buy, but Bally has been very good about small orders.
Please be aware that there are different classes of the same products, and not all are suitable for skydiving applications. You really have to know what to buy!!!
But if you are looking for the "commercial equivalent" for a project on which your life does not hang by a thread, then these two companies may be of help to you.
