"Strap" or "Strip" refers to a pliable long, narrow, piece of material. A strap may be made up of a single unbroken material or may be a woven construct such as a webbing. (Search "strap" on wordhippo.com. WordHippo, 2023. Web. Modified. Accessed Jan. 5, 2023.) A strap can be made of a variety of man-made or natural materials including, but not limited to, cloth, fabric, polyester, canvas, leather, nylon, polyethylene, polypropylene. The term "strap" may also be used in connection with an adjective or noun indicating an intended or proposed use for the strap. Examples include camping strap, utility strap, tie-down strap, and the like.
A strap can have a first end and second end. Often one of the first end and the second end is coupled to a buckle or other fastener such that the buckle or other fastener remains permanently coupled to the strap at, or near one of the ends. In certain embodiments, one end of a strap can be permanently coupled to a first member of a fastener and the other end of the strap can be removably coupled to a second member of the fastener. The first member and the second member can be configured to releasably engage with each other to form the fastener and couple one end of the strap to another end or part of the strap.
