Nite Ize CamJam Cord Tightener - Tie Down Rope Tightener with Carabiner Clip - Lightweight Utility Cord Tightener for Camping Accessories & Hiking Gear - 4 Pack

Wow! I have needed these my entire adult life. I have been boating, motorcycling, and camping for thirty years or more, and that includes lots of rope, cords, and knots. Every year i review my knot tieing book before boat season, but in 20 years, my memory continues to forget knots. I can do square knots and some clove hitch variations, but thats all that sticks.These cam lock carabiners are amazing. I saw one on a friend's boat and had to buy some. I use them to keep boat covers tight, to keep the cover hem line taught, and to adjust fender rope heights quickly. They are great for blue tarp hanging, strapping stuff to cargo carriers. Get some paracord and the possibilities are endless.I bought 4 plastic can jams for light work, and 4 aluminum for heavier loads. The aluminum ones come in 2 sizes. The large are for 1/4 Inch rope and up ( boat stuff). The regular small ones are for paracord. Expensive, but worth the functionality. Get one to try!

I have an E bike called the cargo bike it has 2 saddle bag and a huge tuge bascet on the back the clips are big enough to clip on the 7/16 tubing to hold my stuff.. The clips seem very durable even being clipped at odd angles and not inline with the cords pulled tight and the locks hold tight at the odd angles also.. These were a good investment for me..

Item is what i expected and works well.

Alright, so I picked up this 4-pack of Nite Ize CamJam Cord Tighteners, and honestly, they're pretty slick. I'm not exactly a knot-tying wizard, and trying to get a tarp taut when it's windy is usually a comedy of errors. These little guys totally solve that problem.The carabiner design is what caught my eye. Just clip it onto whatever you're trying to secure, run your cord through the cam, and pull. It locks right in place, no fuss. And if you need to adjust it, just release the cam and slide the cord. Super simple.I used them to tighten down a tarp over my firewood, and they held up great. They feel sturdy, even though they're lightweight. I like that you can use them in a couple of different ways, either looped around something or fixed in place. That flexibility is a plus.The size is perfect too, small enough to throw in my camping gear or toolbox without taking up much space. And the fact that you get four in a pack means I've got plenty for different projects.Honestly, for anyone who struggles with knots or just wants a quick and easy way to secure things, these CamJams are a no-brainer. They've definitely earned a spot in my outdoor gear. Nite Ize seems to know what they're doing with these practical little tools.

I think this is an excellent product. Easy to use and secure.

Easy to use. Good steady material and construction.

The adjustable hooks work well. You can customize the bungee length as needed and the cam lock is pretty strong.

I use these as tie downs for a kayak cart I built. over time (around three years) these do not hold as tight as when new, but good enough for what I am using them for.
