The Crash Test Tote – made entirely of actual seat belts!
So tough, it walks away from any job site accident
Think of all the reckless handling, side swipes, dragging, crushing and overloading your utility bag takes on the job. What better material to absorb all that than the same 5,000-lb. tensile strength, crash-tested seat belt webbing you trust your life to every day? We got ahold of the 1.2mm industrial-strength polyester webbing used in car, truck and van seat belts, and built this practically indestructible utility bag out of it – even the handles.
Next, we put this bag through one of our "torture tests." We filled our Crash Test Tote with a whopping 180 lbs. of sand. Then we dragged it by a rope behind a Chevy Silverado. Most bags wouldn’t make it out of the parking lot, but this one took over 2 miles of burning, punishing dragging on our gravelly local country roads before one of the handles broke. There were also horrific snarls of fabric and holes in one side, but the bag still looked functional. To test it some more, we loaded it up with a 350 small block V8 from a neighbor’s ’66 Chevy. Guess what? Up it went on the hoist – still able to tote over 250 lbs.!
Panels run continuously under the bag from rim to rim, so there are no weak spots at the bottom. Bottom is doubled in thickness, and we ran webbing around the rim to stop fraying there. Last but not least, we sewed it with 200-lb. test line. This one’ll survive anything – so get one today and leave those cheapo bags to the dummies. 17 1/2"W x 8"D x 16 1/2"H. Imported.
