LiteOutdoors Guyline & Tensioner Kit - 1.8mm Diameter - 60 or 100 feet - Ultralight Reflective Tent Cord, Lightweight Non-Slip Cord Adjusters. Camping, Hiking, Paracord

Great product !!! Lightweight and easy to use. Size is good to use with diameters below 550 paracord (4mm). Durability has been good with my youngest son (now 10) on his tarp. He has easily figured out how to use these. I used them on a couple of backyard/garden tarps, due to Chicago being WINDY, and the guylines needing to be adjusted often. You can use a slippery half hitch (type of hitch, not a knot) or a double slippery half hitch, to ensure that it doesn't come loose from the winds.

I like these tensioners. I can secure these to my hammock tarp with a loop of shock cord and tension my tarp to the stakes. That loop of shockcord gives it a little flex in windy conditions and protects those tension points. It's super easy to use these, attach with shockcord to tarp, insert guyline into the tensioner and pull. It definitely makes deployment of the tarp a little faster.

I've tested these with several cord sizes from 1.18 to 2.0mm in Diameter and they hold really well!. Tested holding a tent fly down in 20MPH winds and saw little to no slip. They are simple and effective and the only small diameter cord tensioner I've found that actually works well!

Just what I need

These are great I’m buying more right now

The center divider that the cord wraps around is very loose and there is nothing to hold it in place except a small ridge in the center of the plastic. I bought them for my tent guy lines and I'm worried one will pop out and get lost. Don't know how well they will do in the wind or rain. Guess I'll have to wait and see to find out.

These are the perfect tensioners for guylines. Easy to apply and release.

These really impressed me! They seem to hold extremely well even with tiny 1.18mm microline! I’m using for guying a ham radio antenna mast but these have a million applications. Perfect for ultralight backpacking when paired with some 100lb microcord!

These are super simple and are great to use with micro paracord. They will give under heavy load/wind which is exactly what you want. I put these on all my guy lines and can stand up my winter tent in about 8 minutes.

Ich habe diese Abspanner für mein Tarptent bestellt. Sie sind nicht gerade billig und werden direkt aus den USA geliefert, sind aber wirklich ultraleicht. Das Einfädeln und Abspannen ist kinderleicht und sie halten dank der winzigen eingebauten Mechanik bombenfest! Selbst bei stärksten Winden war kein Nachspannen notwendig. Wer wirklich einfach zu handhabende, sichere und ultraleichte Abspanner sucht - die hier sind perfekt. Kein billiger Chinaschrott...

A T shape tensioner that is hard to find for ultra light tent rope

Not sure what others don’t like about these. I have them permanently connected to my tarp guy lines when out camping. I use 1.6mm dyneema cord and they hold everything in place for as long as I need. Very easy to undo and adjust. YouTube video search shows how to use them. Couldn’t be simpler. I’m very happy with the product and happy to recommend them for camping purposes. Will probably buy more to make set up a breeze.

Good quality, as described. A significant improvement over the three holed plastic ones that seem to be bundled in with tents etc. and far better than the aluminium ones that cut into even good Dyneema lines.
