Product Information

You will receive two swing straps, two carabiners, a swivel, two tree protectors, and a carrying bag for storing the straps. The tree protectors ensure that the straps do not leave indentations on tree branches when kids swing vigorously. Tire: A tire swing can be hung vertically with a single rope or horizontally with three ropes to keep it level. Learn how to make a tire swing. It takes a few minutes to install the swing straps onto a tree branch or a beam. Each strap has D-ring at each end, and one D-ring is smaller than the other.

You will receive two 5ft long swing straps, two carabiners, and a storage pouch. All metal parts are galvanized steel that is resistant to rust or corrosion. Plank: The most traditional tree swing is a flat wooden or plastic plank-like seat attached to the branch above with two ropes or chains. Tree swing straps make hanging swings easier. Hanging a swing before tree swing straps were invented required figuring out how to tie a rope properly around a tree or boring holes through a branch and inserting bolts with eye hooks. Once you move the strap from side to side you change the angle from the point that the strap attaches to the tree. As the swing goes further up, the angle of the strap to the horizon goes down. As the angle lessens, the safe load capacity goes down. There are published charts that have the percentage decrease in load capacity relative to the angle change.You might think any strap that looks strong and durable will work for hanging a swing. But, there are factors you need to consider before allowing your loved ones to swing on a swing hung on a strap. Select a healthy, relatively horizontal branch that is at least 10 inches in diameter, no more than 15 feet off the ground and long enough to position the swing at least four to six feet from the tree trunk. UV light will cause many materials to degrade of over time. Understanding the rate at which the material you are using degrades will help you select the right tree strap.

Tree swing straps add some length to short swing chains, allowing the swing to drop to the proper height for your child. Your straps will come with some way of attaching your swing to them. This attachment type can be as simple as a loop in the end of the strap or as sophisticated as a swivel.

Attachment points are very important to consider. You can have a strap that is very strong, but an attachment point that is weak. When looking at straps, pay close attention to how the attachment point is constructed and what it is made of. Saucer: Hung horizontally with four ropes, saucer swings are often large enough to fit multiple children and have a nylon webbing or net center.

There are a few methods for hanging swings that are safe and limit damage to the bark and limb. Always avoid wrapping metal chains around your tree branch. Doing so will almost always harm the tree.

Strap length

Ropes and chains tend to tear into tree branches, causing damage to the branch. Tree swing straps help to distribute the load across a wider area. Also, straps lay flat on the branch which also helps to lessen damage to your tree. What features should you look for in tree swing straps You need to pass the smaller D-ring through the larger one to form a loop around the tree branch or beam. Natural-fiber ropes absorb moisture and will rot over time, so should be replaced every year or two.

The kit includes two heavy-duty swing straps, two heavy-duty zinc alloy carabiners, and a nylon storage pouch. You have to seriously consider the weight limit of the tree straps you are using to hang your swing. The rated weight given by most tree swing strap suppliers is the maximum weight at a 90 degree angle to the horizon. This means you can put the rated load on the strap when it is hanging straight down from the tree. Polyester will generally last for up to 12 months in direct sunlight before losing approximately 40% of its strength. Temperature Tree swing straps are more durable than the ropes parents buy in hardware stores to hang tire swings.You can rest easy when your little one plays on the swing because the swing straps won’t break easily. If your limb or beam is high, you may want to use a longer strap to make it easier to hang. Also, it will make it more convenient to attach and detach different swings from the straps. The swivel comes in handy when you hand a tire or saucer swing using the heavy-duty tree swing straps. It is hard to find high weight-limit heavy-duty tree swing straps that can accommodate several kids.
