Fastway Zip 6 Foot Breakaway Cable 80-01-2160 RED

Easy to install and much better than just the standard wire.

This thing clips onto your breakaway switch, parks itself when not in use, and clips to your tow vehicle quite easily. It stays out of the way and is so sano! Trailers come with a bit of wire with a loop for the breakaway cable; it's way too long, hangs in the way of everything, and is a hassle to hook up. Then you trip over it, or it catches on something and pulls itself... what a mess! This coil cord version is the coolest thing I've done for my trailers in a long time. It's as neat and spiffy as it looks! I'm actually delighted! 8^D

I bought this after being deceived with another product that was a look-alike. This product is the real deal and has a real metal cable in it.

Perfect amount of cable to work with my 23ft. Travel trailer. Install was super easy and has replaced the super long and somewhat potentially dangerous cable that was on my trailer before. I know I could have just shortened the other cable but, for the price this is worth the upgrade. Comes with a good carribeaner too.

Made in China, just like most of the others. Not sure if there's any difference between this and the cheaper versions, but it does work just fine as long as it doesn't stay out in the sun. The plastic coating does seem to bake quickly if left out too long.

I upgrade ALL of my trailers to the 6' ZIP breakaway cable. So easy and convenient!

I'm a big fan of coiled trailer break-away cables! I use several currently. This is clearly a cut above the cheaper imports, and is the only one I'll buy!

On our travel trailer, the distance between attachment points (switch on the trailer to the truck) is 34". I am glad we chose the 6' version over the 4'. In our case, the 34" distance elongates the coil by 47%. The 4' version would have elongated by 71%. The tension designed into the coil is well engineered in that the cable barely sags even when elongated by less than half of its capacity. Judging from how ours actually works, I believe we made a good choice. With that said, the marketing department could do a better job of describing the best working ranges of the cables they are selling. As it is, guidance as to which cable length to purchase is minimal and relies on the customer's best guess. If you are trying to decide, I recommend choosing longer rather than shorter.

Good product. Quick and easy to use. Could be a bit longer, but it works okay.

Works great! Only thing is I would say it is not 6 feet long it is shorter than that. Just hooks up to my truck.

This is what every trailer needs. No more dragging brake cables! Easy to swap out. Definitely recommend purchasing this!

Nice quality. Works well. Super easy to install. No more dragging wire or too tight. A little pricy for what it is but can't argue with the fact it works great.

Excellent product, as described!!
