Examples of Webbing Defects

Webbing Inspection

-

check for twisted webbing due to improper alignment when connecting buckle

-

fully extend webbing from retractor. Inspect webbing and replace with new assembly if following conditions are noted:

^

cut or damaged webbing

^

broken or pulled threads

^

cut loops at belt edge

^

color fading as a result of exposure to sun or chemical agents

^

bowed webbing see page 3 for examples of webbing defects

Do not bleach or redye seat belt webbing. Webbing that is severely faded will not meet strength requirements and must be replaced.
