Description of Inovat Plastic Toggle Spring Stop Single Hole String Cord Locks: Secure Your Cords with Ease!

Oval-shaped cord lock, Length - 1.10", Width - .57". D-rings, buckle, triglides etc. are sized by the webbing or straps they are meant to be used with. Made of high-quality plastic, with strong toughness, long-term repeated stretching does not easy to break. A spring loaded barrel cord lock closes bags, hoods, hats, etc. fairly securely and without tying. Great for use on sweat pants or hoodies to keep from losing the drawstring and to tighten the drawstring as well

Sturdy and works great

I have a pair of sandals that came with fashionably (for some reason) elastic laces. The cheap locks they provided never worked so I gave them a try as they are so cheap. They work and I've found a number of other uses for them as well. They have drawstrings all over them without you realizing it, sweatpants, sweatshirts, sleeping bags and sleeping bags, these drawstring locks are great for all of those things.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Approximately

Unfortunately this product has gone downhill

I used to buy these cord locks many times for my small business, but the last batches I bought were significantly reduced in quality, at a higher price. I used to recommend this product to everyone, but now, with sloppy molding and cheap plastic, I'd say it's not worth it unless you're willing to put up with a few broken wire locks and a significant amount of extra time trimming accepting excess plastic is your time.

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • Long Wait

great value for money sewing

use them for camping DIY projects - storage bags, hammock snakeskin etc - and they work very well in several projects done to date. Good hole size - better than many other undersized cord locks. The hole allowed me to thread 2 strands of shock cord through (what I use is listed as 1/8" but it's actually slightly larger, not quite 3/16"), no problem. The cord locks bite well to prevent slipping, but when you press the button the cords slide very smoothly and open - without snagging on the…

Definitely not ultra light; It's huge!

The fourth picture in the description shows that they are smaller than a quarter (US coin). In fact, each of them is much LARGER than a quarter. Each is just over 1/16" taller than a quarter (3/32" taller than a quarter to be exact. Each is actually 1-3/32" or 27.8mm long. Each weighs 0 .07 oz or 2 g I bought these to make some ultra light gear and based on the photos in the description I was expecting them to match other spring lines I have but they are more than double the length, double as…

Almost no grip strength; Misleading size

I can't see why the vendor didn't fix this. But I read these reviews before buying so I knew what to expect. My real issue with this product is that it has almost no grip power. There isn't enough spring tension and the design just doesn't grab the line because the holes are made of smooth and smooth nylon. I made bed sheet fasteners using tarp clips, military grade paracord, and these zip ties to hold the sheets in place: attach a tarp clip to the edge of the sheet, secure with paracord…
