What it does
- Ring and plug lock together so your tarp stays tight and won't slip or sag
- Rope attachment point holds stronger than store-bought clips, so your setup stays secure in wind or snow
- Works with thick tarps using the jumbo version, so you get coverage that fits your needs
- Two-piece design lets you secure rope with a simple cow hitch knot, so setup takes just minutes
Your tarp stays flat and secure, even when weather gets rough. These two-piece clips lock together to hold fabric tight without gaps or movement.
The ring goes on one side of your tarp, the plug on the other. Bunch your tarp around the plug, thread it through the oval ring, and lock them together by lining up the ovals. Tie your rope to the plug with a cow hitch knot, then pull the tarp taut. The attachment point is stronger than most clips you can buy in stores. Use the jumbo version if your tarp is thick.
Pull only along the long axis for the strongest hold. Great for securing tarps during snowstorms, setting up blanket forts, or covering gear in your yard.
