Very functional and versatile. Strong build. I use it to suspend my backpack from a tripod. Easy to use, fast release, but secure. Great value

For cord sizes: 1/16 inch to 3/16 inch or 2mm - 5mm (2mm - 5mm is molded onto the surface of the cam) Very rapid deployment. Just pull in-line - away from the hook - to tighten. Very rapid removal. Just pull to the side to release. Reliable and secure, will hold very well. These are designed for "light loads" only. The company doesn't state a capacity.Search Amazon for other "Nite Ize" products like the "S-Biner" (I have about 80 of these in sizes: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ( all Steel), and in plastic I have sizes 0, 8, & 10. These are all similar to "carabineers," except these have 2 gates and a central diagonal bar which together define two separated capture regions. These bind, but still separate cords, ropes, rings, etc. into 2 sections in one device. There are numerous versions: locking, bottle opener, LED light, key ring, plus combinations of these features."Nite Ize" has many more products that may help you, and that make solid, useable, high quality, thoughtful gifts.

I use these on my boat and as airplane tie downs. Easy to use and has never slipped.

Works great for a rope time down.

--Worked well with three types of paracord I tried (5/32" / 4mm diameter)--With heavy tensioning you may need to manually push the cam back into locking position, and in general it bites harder when you do this.--Held 150lb load, about the average working load of paracord (which usually has a breaking point of 550lbs for new rope). Above that, I'd be concerned about the plastic hook bending up or snapping in cold weather. And if there are any safety issues (e.g. weights over head) I would not load these down with anything close to 150lb.--Held 75-foot horizontal span of paracord nearly taut (1 foot sag) with a 12lb vertical load (lights and cord) distributed evenly across it.--To tension effectively you need to pull directly back in the direction your line runs (can't pull at much of an angle, might matter for some applications).--There is only one way to feed the rope through the cam, as shown in the product picture. The "two attachment methods" refer to the line either being anchored to a fixed point (like an eye bolt) or being looped back and attached to the hook (maybe to secure a bundle of fire wood).

hello, i needed an easy clip on part to adjust a small line to a super tight configuration. i have tried several others and they work, but were too big for this small line. the nite ize cam jam did an incredible job to make the line super tight and firm. then when i was finished, i easily moved the adjustment knob and my line came loose. i was able to remove the nite ize cam jam and store it away. you cannot get any easier than this cam jam. nite ize makes cool clips and hooks. this one is definitely an excellent part. since the line used is very small, it is not for large or heavy items, but i can see this cam jam being used to tighten a canopy line or similar products. great delivery and service.

Very easy to use, great for tying down items in the back of a truck, extremely compact and sturdy

I bought a pair of these to hold corners on a Coolaroo sunshade. I have turnbuckles in two corners and these on the other two. I wanted something that could quickly be released if a wind storm occurs. They were very easy to use and I think they will work well for my purpose.

Muito bom

Este producto si cumple lo que promete

Great, just what I was looking for. Thank you.

Système ingénieux que cet outil. A voit dans le temps mais c est très pratique. Attention a commander la bonne taille selon la cordelette que vous utilisez

Used it to control the sails to my Hobie sail kit and works well to keep the cord tight as needed.
