The Figure 9 from Nite Ize really are a handy piece of kit! They really are a popular piece of kit for guylines and setting up tarps & Bashas in the field.
If you are putting up a shelter it is always a problem getting all the cordage tight so you have a really taut and drum like basha. Very important to keep the rain running off your shelter.
If you've ever had problems with losing tension in your rope while tying a knot, or wasted time untying a difficult knot, here's your hassle-free solution. The innovative, patented Figure 9 tightens, tensions, and secures ropes without knots.
These unique figure 9 tighteners are so simple to use and require no complicated knots and believe me they really do work. I have 4 myself and regularly use them in the field.
Pack Kit consists of 2 figure 9's and 1.8m/6' of paracord.
