5/16's. I don't have a great reason why, other than it being rated much higher than anything I'll pull. It's also thinner and cheaper, so why pay more and fit less on the drum?

Hmm... I have never really thought of it being padding that does the job of a tree saver, more of width, for spreading the load. I was using a three inch wide strap, but was still seeing some chafing of the bark, so I went with a 4" wide version and now the tree is completely unharmed, except for the scuffed moss.
I would not have thought something that narrow would do the job, padded or not.
