I am with hrpiii. In 25+ years I have never, ever worn straps for anything. I can tell you I do dumbbell rows with 160's and have pulled 500 before. (Yes my deadlift blows compared to my other lifts lol) I've always had a fair grip, but like hrpiii said train your grip. A lot of people associate forearms with grip and to some degree it is but its your actual fingers...easiest thing you can do in almost any gym is hexagon dumbbell holds using your fingertips.
