290. What is used to prevent wear on towlines that bear on hard surfaces?
Chafing gear protects towlines from abrasion by covering the line where it contacts hard surfaces. This prevents wear and extends the line's lifespan, unlike boots (personal equipment), grease (a dangerous practice), or chocks (the surfaces causing wear).
