Customer Reviews for Nite Ize CamJam Rope Tightener with Rope (2-Pack)

I brought this about a month ago and doesn’t hold any size cord1.8-3mm right at all, very disappointed. From a company that usually produces much higher quality gear it’s v poor.

I bought this product with the hopes that I would be able to secure items in the trunk area of my car. I cannot. Both of the cams, I bought a two pack, completely fail to grip at all. It is a useless product. And before you read the part about imposter sellers the company posted under the other 1 star review, the return address is for nite ize, the name is on the product it self and I bought the rope from the company. I might as well have burned my money instead.

Light duty only. Worked well for tie down lines on sun shade.

I use these to put up banners and they can make the job so much easier no need to tie knots you can make easy quick adjustments and the locking mechanism works great

Nite Ize CamJam cord tightener This item comes in a 2 piece pack attached to heavy card stock with a smooth plastic like coating. The package is meant to hang on a hook or small post. Each clip is secured to the card with a couple of plastic ratcheting cable fasteners (aka zip-tie). Each clip measures 2-3/4" (70 mm) tall x 1-3/8" (34 mm) wide and just under 5/8" (14 mm) thick. The clips are made of a black colored hard plastic similar to delrin, nylon or polycarbonate material. The spring snap gate of the carabiner part seems to be made of a stainless-steel type of wire. Included with the pair of clips is an 8' (2.4 m) length of cordage for immediate use. The included cordage is a paracord (aka 550) type. The CamJam can accommodate cordage from 1/16" (2 mm) up to 5/32" (3.5 mm). Paracord in the 3.5 mm is one of the most popular sizes in commercial use. This means you should be able to find many uses for these clips in fastening tarps and loads. Military 550 paracord with type III spec is closer to 4 mm in diameter and may not work as well. The only warning about not using for life safety and lifting where body or property damage could occur is inside of a flap the cordage is wrapped around. The warning statement cannot be viewed without unpacking and unfolding the flap. There should be some form of warning on the front face of the package that you can review before purchasing. I believe most people will realize these are to be used for light duty load fastening. True 550 type III paracord may be rated for 550 lbs, but I do not think the clips would support that weight for very long. I hope the manufacturer realizes this oversight and provides another warning before something bad happens.

Works great for securing my car cover. I need some more cord?

I've had a pair of XTs I use for a patio shade, i.e. a sail. I've used them with everything from paracord to 1/4" nylon braided rope and they've never slipped, not even in storm weather. I don't even back-tie the rope after the cam. The harder the wind blows, the tighter the cam gets, but still easily releases. I need more.

As long as you can follow basic instruction you can figure out how to use this product. I use it on a heavy wrecker to tie down and hang everything from cable to chains to tools and anything else that I keep on my truck they also work really good for holding up. Driveshaft. I honestly can’t remember what I did without them.

Bought this last summer and the plastic clips don’t hold well under weight/pressure. Wish they had something stronger, scared to use these for my hammock. Would recommend but wish the packaging was clear on weight limits. Kinda wasted my money. Cool idea though

Simply and effective. Get the right size and maybe get the bundle from Nite that includes rope that fits.

I truly like these CamJam Cord Tightener's. Something so simple and functional should have been developed YEARS ago! I can replace all my "Bunjee Cords" with these.

Packaging wasn’t clear on whether there was one or two chords. Note package comes with one chord and two hooks. Besides that the hooks worked great. Easy to operate once you understand the locking mechanism that secures the chord in place. I plan on buying another package.

Not impressed!

Excellent Product! You can adjust the rope and secure your item quickly.

Great product

I use it in my trunk to keep grocery bags from flying around... I "drive" my Camaro.

Works great

Upon pulling the rope tight, the pieces that lock the rope would part from one another and the rope would not be locked. I returned the item.

I have used these in the bed of my truck, to hold in my 5 gallon gas and diesel containers. I use the clip end to hook to my bed ring. Run the rope thru handles, and Niteize has a new S-Biner slidelock in Large that is perfect for other bed ring, then connect other end of CamJam to it. Secure connections that want go move. Works great for coolers thru handles, cases of water, run it thru folding chairs tighten down. Haven't found nothing you can't use it for bed of truck if probably done!!

never used them let, looks like they will work great!
