Let’s look at where our high-quality products assist this industry:
Product Applications
Backboards
In many high schools and public gyms, basketball backboards and nets will be retractable up to the ceiling if a different sport is being played. Cables and pulleys control this process and need to keep the backboard locked in position near the ceiling to avoid disaster. When the net is in the normal position, durable cables and pulleys must ensure it is still as to not compromise the integrity of the game.
Bike Locks
For safety precautions like storing and locking a bike, KobraKoils® offers the durability and strength needed for peace of mind. Although they have slight elastic properties, these cables are very durable, and would not be able to be simply snapped or broken by someone attempting to steal a bike. Their high-quality materials also ensure they last and will rarely need replacing, despite the harsh weather conditions they may face.
Trailer Cables
Cables and pulleys are involved in the transporting and functionality of trailers. Reliable coated cables can be used in the winch system that helps load heavy items into trailers. Some trailers may also have ramp systems operated by cables and pulleys, used for ease of loading and removing items. Cable assemblies are also typically used as tie-downs for cargo to remain secure in trailers. Safety, security, and reducing injury risk are at the forefront of trailer cable applications.
Dog Leashes
The retractability of KobraKoils® makes it an excellent choice as a dog leash. Not only does it provide durability and strength, ensuring long-lasting performance, but offers the functionality that makes sense for this application. No matter the size of the dog, these cables have the strength to perform.
Hunting Stands
Pulleys and sheaves are often used in hunting, specifically to hoist heavy items like firearms, ammunition and even game into hunting stands. As these stands are often small, hunters will typically climb into them before hoisting items rather than carrying them in. Having strong cables and durable pulleys not only simplifies the hunting process but avoids any damage to structures or personal injuries.
