A nylon webbing specification is written in three figures — width, thickness and strength — and it is settled against four requirements at once: the band has to pass through the hardware, hold in the adjuster, carry the peak load of the finished assembly, and stay soft enough where it touches a person or an animal.

Polyester webbing is made from polymer chip to finished roll in seven stages, and two rolls that leave the same mill at the same width, shade and stated strength are still two different products. A band is bought against four requirements at once: break strength, colorfastness, dimensional stability and service life in the exposure it will actually meet.
