Easy to adjust and release tension by rotating the cam lock lever Made of durable cast aluminium for heavy loads Two attachment methods for ultimate versatility - Loop System and Fixed End System Achieve and maintain high tension without knots CamJam XT Single Pack Load Limit: 280 lbs | 127 kg, Break Strength: 837 lbs | 380 kg CamJam XT Combo Pack Load Limit: 100 lbs | 45 kg, Break Strength: 300 lbs | 136 kg CamJam XT fits rope sizes: 1/16" - 3/16" | 2mm - 5mm, CamJam XT Large fits rope up to 3/8" | 9.5mm These premium quality cast aluminum cord tighteners are a rugged combination of carabiner and cam locking mechanism meant to secure, tension, and connect serious loads when paired with a rope or cord. Clip the carabiner to a fixed anchor point, then use the cam mechanism to safely connect, tension, and easily release your rope or cord. The CamJam XT aluminum rope & cord tighteners feature Nite Ize signature, knot-free CamJam tightening and tensioning technology. Available in two heavy-duty sizes and built from durable, cast aluminum, this rugged combination of carabiner and cam mechanism is designed to tighten, tension, connect, and secure serious loads up to 280 and 500 lbs respectively. The CamJam XT products feature a carabiner clip and gate on one end, and a rotating cam mechanism on the other. This clever design allows the CamJam XT to be configured in either a Fixed End or a Loop System to securely tie down lumber, gear, and other heavy loads. In both systems, the CamJam XT can be easily adjusted and re-adjusted time and again to tackle a multitude of tie-down projects over the years. The XT holds cord from 1/16""-3/16"" [2mm-5mm] in width, and the XT Large holds rope with a diameter of 1/8”-3/8” [3mm-9mm]. To use the Fixed End System: simply anchor the carabiner to any hook, D-ring, or loop, and feed the cord or rope through the cam until you've reached the desired level of tension. Next, pull the cord firmly and the cam locks into place and stays that way until you release it. To use the Loop System: Tie a knot to create a loop in one end of your rope or cord. Clip the CamJam XT into that loop, then pull the other end or rope through the cam mechanism. This loop system enables you to bundle or wrap heavy loads and easily secure them.

NEGATIVE. NO. **Q: Will it take a 10MM rope** A: It is designed for 3 to 9 mm ropes. Imho, already a 9 mm rope would be too stiff to tighten. plus I see no real reason to put in a rope that thick. Anything this product can handle can also be handled by a 5-7 mm rope. And using a smaller diameter rope would add some flexibility to the tie-down, which makes more sense, than using heavy and too thick a rope. The matter is what you intend to use it for. I think that a rope that thick simply does not match the purpose of this product. I like to use it what it was designed for and it is very good at it. Don't use it for anything else. Might not be safe. Hope I could help. Eddie **Q: Can this be used with paracord?** A: If your paracord is within the minimum size range, then yes. I use 5mm paracord and it works. **Q: Would this be any good for tightening a shade sail?** A: YES, however for windy conditions, you might need a shade sail which is made of flexible fabric, or you might need to tighten it by using also some kind of a rather strong, tight but still flexible elements (cords, rubber bands) at least on the half of the attaching points. Using a short rubber band dedicated for securing luggage in cars and doubling it, might be nice. Depends on the size of the sail. When (over)tightening any flexible cords or bands, be very careful, it might snap into your face/eyes. I actually know a guy who lost eyesight on one eye, when securing something on is cars roof-rack with a cheap Chinese rubber cord with hooks. You have to realise, that at anytime you are tightening something flexible, you may be storing a considerable amount of energy into something that can snap, releasing that energy very fast, thus very strong. This goes also for the Mite Ize CamJam XT Aluminium. The heavier is object attached to a snapped flexible cord or band, the more dangerous it gets. Do not over-tighten. Use eye protection in extreme cases, or at least turn face away and keep distance. Tighten in a direction perpendicular to your vision, never towards your face. A well chosen flexible element will prevent the sail shade from snapping in the winds and it will stop it from tearing itself, or tearing off, with a wind gust. The rope tighteners are great for many other purposes also. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid gear *by L***S on 1 July 2025* Great piece of equipment, very solid and holds serious weight ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cam Jam *by M***. on 2 November 2024* Works really well .
