- Semi-rigid material
- Black
- Available in 4, 6, 9, 12 and 15 inch lengths
Where to Use Them
Webbing wears fastest where it rubs against a seat edge, a door pillar or a buckle stalk. A sleeve at that point takes the wear instead of the belt.
Choosing a Length
Measure the section of webbing that needs protection and choose the next size up from the Size menu: 4, 6, 9, 12 or 15 inches.
Fitting
Slide the sleeve over the webbing before the belt is mounted, or over the free end, and position it where it is needed. Make sure it does not stop the belt from retracting.
A Finished Look
Black sleeves blend with most interiors and give a neat, factory-style finish to new or restored belts.
Order Enough
If you are doing several belts, order a sleeve for each position that needs one.
Keep a Spare
Sleeves are small and inexpensive, so many owners order an extra in case a second belt needs protection later.
Before You Order
Check your mounting points and the condition of the floor and pillar where the belt will attach. Rust or damaged metal should be repaired before any seat belt is installed.
Caring for Your Belts
Clean webbing with mild soap and water and let it air dry. Avoid bleach and harsh cleaners, which can weaken the fibers. Replace any belt that has been in a collision.
Why Replace Old Belts
Seat belt webbing ages. Sunlight, heat and years of use weaken the fibers even when a belt still looks fine. New belts restore the protection the car was meant to have.
Wearing Belts Correctly
The lap portion should sit low across the hips, not the stomach, and the shoulder portion should cross the chest and collarbone, away from the neck. A belt that is twisted or loose gives less protection.
End Release Buckles
An end release buckle is the style found in most modern cars: push the button on the end and the tongue releases. It is familiar to passengers and easy to use with gloves or in a hurry.
Retractable Convenience
A retractor keeps the webbing off the floor and out of door jambs when the belt is not in use, and it locks under sudden stops or hard braking.
Made in the USA
Seatbelt Planet builds its belts in the United States, using webbing and hardware that meet federal safety standards.
