austin870 Posted August 21, 2007 Report Posted August 21, 2007 I am moving up to my first PAM's (177h & 005) and obviously going to be tossing the straps that come with them. I have heard of several people ordering the same size as their 20mm straps were and having problems with the thicker straps being short. I wanted to find out if there is some rule of thumb to go by on a 24mm? I guess these PAM straps average 4.5 to 5mm thick. I have a 7 inch wrist. My deployant strap size for a 20mm is 115 x 75mm Long. What size would I get in a 24mm thick strap? Do I have to watch out for how far down the strap ring holding the excess strap? Some have doubles.
FxrAndy Posted August 21, 2007 Report Posted August 21, 2007 I too have a 7inch wrist and find that 125/75 straps can be a bit to short if they are very thick, although they fit and fasten up i would like and extra 10-15mm on the end, i have made a few straps and the next one will have the extra i want.
linkukbora Posted August 21, 2007 Report Posted August 21, 2007 My bet will be those measured 125x80x 5mm
seraphe Posted August 21, 2007 Report Posted August 21, 2007 I too have 7" wrist size and my straps are 125x75mm with 5mm thickness. Savage gave me a table for an idea how to choose my size...
austin870 Posted August 21, 2007 Author Report Posted August 21, 2007 Thanks People I guess this leads to another question. It sounds like 125X75X5mm would work and 125X80X5mm would give an even longer holed end for thicker straps. The question is if I go 125X80X5mm am I in danger of being on the first hole with no place to go if I need it a bit tighter? I would imagine you want to stay someplace in the middle so you have some versatility. I am not sure how all this works out without a strap this size in front of me.
