2-Point (Lap) Belts
Webbing runs across the pelvis and anchors either side of the seat. Found in centre-rear positions on some vehicles, in certain buses and coaches, and in specific commercial and utility applications.
Product Directory
Seat belt products, category by category
A working overview of the seat belt and restraint product families found across passenger and commercial vehicles — what each one is, where it is typically used, and what to confirm before enquiring.
01 — Category Index
Explore common categories of seat belt products
Each category has a dedicated page covering what the products are, typical applications and the details worth confirming. Product suitability may vary based on vehicle and application.
CAT 01
Automotive Seat Belts
Two-point and three-point assemblies for passenger vehicles, across front, outer rear and centre rear positions.
View CAT 02Commercial Vehicle Seat Belts
Restraint solutions considered for trucks, buses, vans and utility vehicles with heavier duty cycles.
View CAT 03Replacement Seat Belt Systems
Where an existing assembly is damaged, worn or no longer operating as intended and needs assessment.

02 — Belt Configurations
Assembly types you will come across
Configuration describes how many points the belt is anchored at and how the webbing is routed across the occupant. It is the first thing to establish, because it determines everything from webbing length to which hardware is even relevant.
3-Point Belts
Combines a lap section with a diagonal shoulder section, anchoring at three points. The standard arrangement for front and outer rear positions in modern passenger vehicles.
Static vs Retractable
Static belts are adjusted manually to length and stay there. Retractable belts store webbing on a spool that takes up slack automatically and locks under defined conditions.
Stalk vs Strap Buckles
The buckle half may sit on a rigid stalk or on a short flexible strap. The two are not interchangeable — the vehicle's seat design decides which belongs.
Availability. The categories described on this page are the product families commonly found in the market. Depending on requirements and availability, a specific configuration may or may not be obtainable for a given vehicle — that is confirmed against your actual enquiry rather than assumed here.

03 — Lap Belt Applications
Where two-point belts still belong
Two-point lap belts are sometimes assumed to be outdated. In reality they remain the specified restraint in a number of legitimate applications, particularly where seating layout, vehicle structure or the absence of a suitable upper anchorage makes a three-point arrangement impractical.
Typical examples include certain centre-rear seating positions, some passenger seating in buses and coaches, and specific commercial, utility and specialised vehicle seats. In each case the choice follows the vehicle's design rather than preference.
- AnchorageTwo mounting points, one either side of the seat
- RestraintAcross the pelvis; no upper-body diagonal section
- AdjustmentManual length adjustment or retractor, depending on design
- Buckle stylesPush-button or lift-lever mechanisms are both common
Not an upgrade decision. Changing a seating position from a two-point to a three-point belt is a structural matter involving anchorage points, not a parts swap. It should only ever be considered with qualified automotive engineering input and in line with applicable regulations.
04 — Component-Level Products
Individual parts, not just complete assemblies
Enquiries often concern one element rather than a whole belt. These are the component families that come up most often.
Seat Belt Webbing
The woven strap itself, normally supplied in defined widths. Weave, finish and colour vary, and length requirements are always vehicle-specific.
Buckles & Stalks
The receiving half of the latch, on a rigid stalk or flexible strap. Stalk length, mounting eye and bolt size all follow the vehicle.
Retractors
The spool assembly that stores webbing and manages slack. Locking behaviour and mounting orientation differ by design.
Tongues & Hardware
Latch plates, guide loops, anchor plates and mounting bolts — small parts whose dimensions are anything but generic.
05 — Before You Enquire
What to have ready
Three groups of information cover almost every seat belt enquiry.
The vehicle
Make, model, variant and year. A VIN or chassis number narrows things further where generations overlap. For commercial vehicles, note the body or cabin type as well.
The position and part
Which seat, which side, and whether you need a complete assembly or a single component. Left-hand and right-hand items are distinct parts.
The evidence
Photographs of the existing belt, buckle and mounting, plus any markings or part numbers on the webbing label or hardware. These resolve more questions than any description.
