    Most straps are made of nylon, I.E. - plastic. So I don't think battery acid would hurt it any.
    Sulphuric acid is more than capable of damaging any organic material. In this case it was a polyester webbing strap, stronger than nylon and less stretchy...

      If you have a battery that's leaking enough acid to burn through the plastic or nylon strap that's holding it down, your battery tie-down is going to be the least of your concern when you go in for tech inspection.
