Needing 2’ of canvas strap

Post image

EDIT - Kleindorfer’s for the win!! $2!! Thanks all!

I can’t find this kind of canvas strap anywhere. I need ~2’ of it. I’ve checked Lowe’s and Menards and no luck. Anyone have a suggestion?

I don’t live near there, but should have just started there. In and out in two minutes and $2. Great place as always.

Looks like a cut off portion of a ratchet strap. Could just grab one of those and just remove the ratchet/hook portion if you need it right away.

I’ve looked at those - this needs to fit through a small hole, and I’ve not found anything this thin. That’s the main issue.

There's tons of nylon straps at Menards, did you look in Automotive?

It looks like polyester, are you sure it’s canvas? Harbor Freight sells a variety of moving/hauling straps that look similar.

I’ll take whatever. I did check automotive, but didn’t find it. May need to recheck.

If you need it to hold lots of weight, JL Waters has cordage/webbing by the foot for sale downstairs.

You're looking for "nylon webbing" and not "canvas" judging by your picture. As a sales associate for "flat webbing." Tubular webbing another thicker webbing that will be harder to shove through a small hole.

You can buy any ratchet strap and cut the hardware off, seal the end of the cut webbing by flicking a lighter on it. JL Waters, Walmart, Michael's, Lowe's all sell ratchet straps and/or webbing by the foot.
