When vehicle recovery takes place in demanding environments, having equipment that is strong, reliable and easy to handle is essential.
Elephant Lifting Equipment's RX12® Recovery and Towing Strops provide a modern alternative to conventional steel recovery slings, combining high strength with a lightweight and flexible design.
Manufactured using HYPERFIBRE® HMPE, RX12® strops are designed for challenging recovery and towing applications across the mining, construction and agricultural industries.
Strong, Lightweight and Easy to Handle
One of the major advantages of the RX12® recovery strop is its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. Despite being lightweight, the strop provides the strength required for demanding vehicle recovery applications.
Its flexible construction also makes the strop easier to handle, transport and store compared with heavier conventional steel slings.

Designed With Safety in Mind
Safety is a critical consideration during vehicle recovery and towing. RX12® strops are designed to provide safety advantages while remaining practical for everyday use.
The lightweight construction allows operators to position and handle the strop more easily, while the low-stretch core helps reduce the build-up of kinetic energy during recovery operations.
RX12® also incorporates a 4:1 Factor of Safety.
In the event of an overload or failure, the construction is designed to absorb released energy and help keep broken components contained, reducing the potential risk to operators and surrounding equipment.
RX12® Technical Construction
The RX12® recovery strop incorporates a high-performance spliced core designed for demanding recovery applications.
A tightly braided and Durathane-coated polyamide body cover helps protect the internal core from dirt ingress and internal abrasion. The eyes are also reinforced with high-tenacity polyester chafe protection to improve durability in areas exposed to wear.
Available Capacities and Lengths
RX12® Recovery and Towing Strops are available in a range of configurations to suit different recovery requirements.
Standard options include:
- Minimum break loads: 30 to 500 tonnes
- Effective working lengths: 1 to 30 metres

This range allows RX12® strops to be configured for a variety of vehicle recovery, towing and heavy-duty applications.
