Technical Overview
Constructed from steel with a Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) coating, these tethers combine strength with a non-scratch surface that protects delicate equipment. The ultra-thin 1.5 mm diameter cable maintains flexibility while providing substantial tensile strength for security applications.
Each tether can be custom-cut to length using standard tools, allowing precise fitting to different accessories without compromising security. The included aluminum ferrules create permanent crimped connections when installed with pliers, while the heat shrink tubing covers crimped ends for a smooth, finished appearance.
