Hi, what is the thicknes, or gauge of the strapping?

Not positive but I think it probably is 16 gauge. It has a high tensile strength rating

The straps are 1 inch wide each. Measuring from the outside of each strap, it's 8 inches. So, measuring from the inside of strap it's 6 inches.

I just got this rope recently myself and it is fairly thick, maybe a 1/4 inch. Definitely good for hanging anything.

Patricia, I don't know the gauge but it is quite "weighty". Not soft or flexible at all.

It is a wench strap the same as I took off. I did not measure but do feel a 1/16" would not matter to me. The quality of this strap is excellent.

The center section, which goes over the shoulder, is padded and about an inch-and-a-half wide. Each end is just regular nylon strap material about a half inch wide, maybe six inches long. It's kind of unusual until you get used to it.

The straps are terrible indeed. I ordered Country Brook Design 3/4 inch 10 yards nylon heavy webbing from Amazon and these straps seem a bit sturdier. They're a little thicker so trickier to attach but they do the job.

The rope is nylon and about as big as a pencil lead. What gauge that is, I don't know. I like it. If I need more I am buying this stuff. It works great for my outdoor chicken area.

The straps are 1 inch wide and 1/8 thick material,however the shoulder pads are extra padded and very comfortable.

I bought these blind, because the Amazon description is not very detailed. They are rated 3000lbs breaking strength 1000lbs working load. I have not had a chance to use them yet, so I cannot comment on quality, however these are really nice heavy duty straps. Definitely several steps above your average ratcheting strap. I was moving and bought ~5 packs of straps from Amazon. I tried different companies since I was ordering multiple 4packs. These Goodyear straps are twice the size/strength of the other ratcheting straps I purchased. If you are looking for something larger to move heavy items these will be a good strap. If you are moving small stuff these are overkill, because they have heavy duty handles and hooks. -- these are big tie downs (AMAZON -- you need to update the technical information and more people will buy these straps)

It's pretty thick. Probably 3/8 - 1/2". It is very nice. I get lots of complements. I can take an exact measurement if needed.

The ends of the padded portion of the strap have a vinyl cap about 1.75" long sewn on that anchors where the nylon strap is attached. Dimensions of the padded portion of the strap (from beginning of nylon strap to beginning of nylon strap), is 20.5". Each thin, non-padded nylon strap attached to either end of the padded portion of the strap is 14.5" long and about 3/8" (actually, exactly 9mm) wide. See my review for a more detailed description.

yes it's a standard gauge about 2" across. I don't know how thick, mine is in a gauge pod.

Well, this is nylon strap rated at 3000 pounds, and the other is polypropylene (whatever that is) rated at 900 pounds, so thicker may not mean stronger. However, if you intend to tie up a dog as opposed to King Kong, I'm guessing either will suffice. =o) What gets my attention is the one you found comes in optional colors. The blaze red would be good to spot on Google Maps, but other than that is a bit bright, so I say go for the poly.

Its 1 & 1/4 inch thick.... Just measured it to be accurate. Works amazingly!!!!

The straps were about an inch wide, but I really did not like the attachments that they are calling quick connect. They were very difficult to set up and not very quick to connect/release.

Hi, I think these are 31 gauge--very thin! I can hardly feel these when I use them.
