Truck Equipment - Bungee Cord

The F.A.S.T. Cord
Fully Adjustable Size Tie-down Cord

The Fully Adjustable Size Tie-down (F.A.S.T Cord) is our patented "tool" that works similar to a bungee cord. The F.A.S.T Cord consists of all American components and comes in standard or customized sizes. The F.A.S.T Cord's claim to fame is the adjusters that allow safe tightening, shortening, lengthening and releasing. The dangerous rebound associated with elastic cords is greatly minimized using the F.A.S.T Cord properly. The F.A.S.T Cord is currently in use by the U.S. Military and many utility and commercial companies. Please call for specifics or information on custom sizes.
