KobraKoils® can be terminated with just about any type of hardware. Special fittings can be designed if a standard fitting isn't available.
A 7" long KobraKoil® stretches easily to ten feet in the smaller diameters. As tension is relaxed it snaps back to its original KobraKoil® form.
The bicycle lock cable illustrated is 3/16" 7x7 galvanized cable coated with vinyl to an outside diameter of 5/16". Fully extended it is 6 ft. long, when fully retracted is only 6" long (including looped ends).
