Coil Collars
INTEREST CHECK
When it comes to coiling your cables, securing them to a rod or dowel easily and securely can be a tricky part of the process. We have experimented a lot over the years, and have developed a solution that works pretty well for us.
Coil Collars are a simple, but well-designed coil-making jig that can be quickly attached to a rod or dowel and will hold your coils tightly in place. They allow for straight (inline) coils, or coils with a 90-degree alignment.
They may not be for everyone, but if you are someone who makes a lot of coiled cables they can be a nice time-saver, and make your process a bit more efficient.
Features
- Accommodates both single-sleeved (approx. 4.2mm diameter) and double-sleeved (approx. 5.3mm diameter) cable. These numbers are based on the cable (USB 2.0 with an outer diameter of about 3.3mm) and sleeving (paracord, Techflex, and MDPC-X) we use and sell on zapcables.com.
- Designed to fit a 3/8” diameter rod.
- Can be used to make coils with either an inline (straight) or 90-degree orientation.
- Quickly locks into place with the turn of a screw.
- Sandblasted aluminum construction (the screw is black-oxide alloy steel).
- Easy and efficient to use. Holds coils tight and leaves no residue.
