Car seat belt

A seat belt is a strap that protects the occupants of a car during an accident. The purpose of a seat belt or safety belt is to keep a person in their seat. This prevents them from being thrown through the car or hitting the windscreen in a collision or during heavy braking. Having properly functioning seat belts is therefore essential. Research has even shown that wearing a good safety belt reduces the risk of a fatal accident by 30 to 40%. So, is your seat belt no longer working properly or is it broken? Replace it immediately!

Types of car seat belts

There are different types of seat belts. For example, there are 2-point belts, 3-point belts, and 4-point belts. A 2-point belt is a belt that is only fastened around the waist. This type of belt does not have a section that goes from the shoulder to the hip. The 2-point belt is mainly found in older cars. Nowadays, standard car models have a 3-point belt. A 3-point belt does have a section that runs from the hip to the shoulder. These are safer than the 2-point belts. There is also a 4-point belt and five, six, or seven-point belts. These are mainly used in racing cars. You will find these belts in our racing belts category.

There is also a difference between a static seat belt and an automatic seat belt. An automatic seat belt locks when the tension on the belt is released.

Seat belt replacement

If the seat belt in your car is defective or not working properly, you will need to replace it. The seat belt is also part of an MOT inspection. If the car fails the inspection because of the belt, you will have to replace it. Having the belt replaced at a garage can be expensive. Replacing the seat belt yourself will save you a lot of money.
