1. Stainless Steel Bolt-on Bracket Installation
The brackets are made from
special stainless steel so they
can be pre-bent at installation
to the direction of pull of the
webbing where it is attached to
the bracket as the belt flows
over the body.
Proper alignment of the
webbing pull through the
bracket reduces the bending
stress [risk of fatigue cracks] to
anchor points during driving
and during an accident.
Do not bend bracket back and forth several times. Multiple
bends in opposite directions will weaken the material and
the bracket may fail during an accident.
Make sure the webbing is not damaged during bracket
bending or the webbing may fail during an accident.
Severe injuries or death may occur.
2. Snap-on bracket with eye bolt Installation
The eye bolt must be positioned so the
snap-on bracket can hook into the eye
with enough freedom for the bracket to
move into the direction of pull. The
snap-on bracket must be allowed to
fully align with the webbing routing
when loaded.
3. Bending Procedure
Brackets which are restricted in alignment to the direction
of pull may be damaged or cut during an accident causing
complete or partial belt failure during an accident.
Severe injuries or death may occur.
