The Sherpa 4x4 Tree Trunk Protector provides a wide, low-stretch recovery anchor strap for wrapping around suitable trees and other compatible anchor points during winching operations.
Manufactured from heavy-duty polyester webbing, the 75mm wide strap helps distribute recovery loads over a broader area than steel cable or chain, reducing the risk of damage to tree bark during vehicle recovery.

Protect Trees During Winching
The Sherpa tree trunk protector is designed to wrap around a suitable tree or anchor point to provide a recovery connection for compatible winching equipment.
The wide polyester webbing helps spread the load across a larger surface area, reducing concentrated pressure on the tree compared with using steel cable or chain directly around the trunk.
Tree Trunk Protector Features

- Reinforced eye loops: Strengthened end loops provide secure connection points for compatible recovery equipment.
- Neoprene stitching protectors: Help protect stitched areas from abrasion and wear.
- UV and abrasion resistance: Designed for use in outdoor recovery environments.
- High-visibility yellow finish: Makes the strap easy to identify in a recovery kit.
Typical Recovery Use
The strap can be wrapped around a suitable tree or other appropriately rated anchor point and connected to compatible recovery equipment such as a winch line or snatch block setup.
Important: This strap is intended for static recovery anchoring only. It is not designed for lifting or towing applications.

Recovery Safety
Always inspect the strap before use for cuts, abrasion, damaged stitching, contamination or other signs of wear. Do not use damaged recovery equipment.
Ensure the selected tree or anchor point is suitable for the intended recovery load and that all recovery components are appropriately rated for the system.
Keep people clear of the recovery area while the system is under load.
