Sliding buckles

Sliding buckles are plastic fastening components for adjusting and guiding webbing. They are made from black nylon and feature openings that allow the webbing to be set to the required length.

The sliding buckle holds the webbing through its threading arrangement and friction. This allows the webbing length to be adjusted without completely disconnecting the assembly.

Applications

Sliding buckles are used for bags, backpacks, shoulder straps, protective covers and technical textile products. They are suitable for webbing constructions where the length must remain adjustable. Their compact design makes them practical for various adjustable straps.

What should you consider?

Check that the buckle size matches the webbing width. Consider webbing thickness, material texture and expected load. Correct threading is important to minimise unwanted slipping.

Processing and use

Thread the webbing through the buckle openings and adjust it to the required length. Secure the webbing end with suitable stitching where necessary. Check that the webbing is correctly guided and remains securely positioned.

Matching products

Sliding buckles can be combined with polyester webbing, nylon webbing, D-rings, carabiner hooks and other suitable fastening materials. The correct combination depends on webbing width and the required construction.

Alternative or other version

Sliding buckles are available in 20, 25, 30, 40 and 50mm, made from black nylon. Ladder buckles for webbing adjustment, flip-lock buckles for clamping and side-release buckles for detachable connections are also available.
