Features

  • Everything in one ARB bag: Each kit comes packed in its own ARB recovery bag, so the whole set is ready to grab and goes back in one place.
  • 17,600 lb snatch strap: ARB's snatch strap is rated at 17,600 lb (8,000 kg) minimum breaking strength with a genuine 20% stretch for kinetic recoveries.
  • Two 4.75-tonne bow shackles: Two steel bow shackles, each with a 4.75 tonne working load limit, connect the strap and other gear to rated recovery points.
  • Leather-palm recovery gloves: A pair of recovery gloves with leather palms protects your hands while you handle straps and shackles.
  • Reflective, easy-carry bag: The bag has reflective strips, heavy-duty buckles and a carry handle.
  • Built to ARB's standards: ARB says every item in its recovery kits is engineered to its own standards for safe, effective recovery.

Description & Fitment

ARB's Essentials kit adds winching basics to strap recovery. Its six items are a 17,600 lb (8,000 kg) snatch strap, an Ultra Light snatch block rated at 19,840 lb (9,000 kg), two 19 mm galvanized Type S bow shackles at 4.75 tonnes each, a 10' (3 m) tree trunk protector and a pair of cow grain leather palm gloves. They pack into a small ARB recovery bag with several compartments. A winch extension strap and recovery damper are not part of this kit.

Fitment & Compatibility

Check before you buy: you want snatch and basic winch gear. RK12A drops the block and tree protector; RK9A adds an extension strap and damper.

Not for: winch pulls that need extra reach; it has no extension strap.

About ARB

ARB.

ARB began in Melbourne, Australia, in 1975, when founder Tony Brown started building bull bars for four wheel drives heading into the outback. Fifty years on, ARB designs and tests its own 4x4 equipment, from bumpers, winches and recovery gear to Air Locker differentials, fridges and camping kit.

In North America, ARB products are supported by ARB's US office, Air Locker Inc., in Auburn, Washington, which administers the warranty for products bought here.

Authorized ARB dealer. Prestige Truck is an authorized ARB dealer, so what we sell is new and genuine ARB. ARB's warranty period starts on the purchase date shown on your receipt, so keep it with your recovery gear records.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the snatch block the same as ARB's 10100020A?

The kit lists ARB's Ultra Light snatch block rated at 19,840 lb (9,000 kg), the same rating as the 10100020A sold on its own.

Should I add a damper?

ARB treats a recovery damper as an essential safety step. The RK11A kit has none, so add the ARB220 or choose the RK9A.

Which ARB kit should I choose?

The Weekender (RK12A) covers snatch recoveries with a strap, two shackles and gloves. The Essentials (RK11A) adds a snatch block and a tree trunk protector. The Premium (RK9A) adds a winch extension strap and a recovery damper on top of that.

Is the snatch strap right for my vehicle?

All three kits carry ARB's 17,600 lb (8,000 kg) snatch strap. ARB's sizing rule puts it with a lighter vehicle of roughly 5,900 to 8,800 lb gross vehicle mass; heavier vehicles need a higher-rated ARB strap.

Can I add to the kit later?

Yes. ARB sells each item on its own, including the ARB220 recovery damper, ARB720LB and ARB725LB winch extension straps and the larger ARB710LB and ARB715LB snatch straps.

What warranty applies?

ARB covers its recovery kits for 3 years with unlimited miles. ARB's schedule holds shackles to 1 year or 25,000 miles, so we quote that term for the shackles.

Warranty, shipping & returns

  • Warranty

    ARB covers each kit for 3 years with unlimited miles.
    • ARB's warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the warranty period, which starts on the date you bought the product from an authorized ARB retailer (the date on your receipt).
    • For a covered defect, ARB will repair or replace the faulty item at its own cost, or refund what you paid for it. ARB decides which.
    • Fit and use the product the way ARB's product information (instructions, safety notes, labels and packaging) directs, for the job it was designed for, and within vehicle safety and compliance laws.
    • Bow shackles in the kit: ARB's US warranty schedule places shackles among the items held to 1 year or 25,000 miles, whichever comes first, so we quote that shorter term for them.
    • Not covered: normal wear and tear; incorrect fitting; misuse, negligent use or overloading; poor or missing repair and maintenance; alteration, abuse, acts of nature, vandalism, collision, road hazards or adverse conditions; racing, rallying, hill climbs, speed trials or other competitive events, formal or informal; use in underground mining or other highly corrosive settings.
    • Commercial use (for example hire vehicles or mining) carries ARB's commercial term of 3 years or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first, with the same 1-year or 25,000-mile limit on the wear items ARB lists.
    • Claims: contact us first and keep your purchase receipt. ARB accepts no claim without proof of purchase and asks that a fitted product stay on the vehicle until the claim has been reviewed.

    • If something looks wrong, take photos of the box and the parts (and if a driver asks you to sign, note the damage on the receipt).
    • Open the box and check the parts against the parts list before you install.

As indicated, it is the essentials

Bare essentials but it has all you need for yourself and others you encounter on the trail unprepared. The snatch block is on the heavy side compared to the aluminum counterparts but is a good price bargain. I like that the ratings all match my winch and bumper capabilities for self-recovery.

Perfect recovery kit...

I like the compact carrying case and that it just has the basics. No need for anything more than this really. Good stuff.
