Bungee Balls 9 Inch,100 PCS White Tarp Bungee with Balls Heavy Duty Tarp Tie Downs Ball for Camping, Shelter,Cargo,Tent Poles with UV Resistant

Not the best but adequate. I wish they would make these to hold up under UV exposure longer. The sun just rots them so fast. But they work great until they don’t.

I was pleased to find this huge bag of canopy ties in white, since most of the offerings at my local stores don't offer that option. White matches my poly stretch screens and stretch decor in a much more nuanced way, which is very appealing. The value of this package is excellent, as one gets a ton of ties for not much expense. The quality isn't quite 100% compared to box store kinds considering one needs to be careful not to pull the elastic out the end when using otherwise spend some time re-routing the cord through. Overall, these are perfect for my intended usage and have no complaints.

I think my new exclamation is going to be “Bungie Balls!”. Like when Darrel Hannah walks out of the ocean at the Statue of Liberty in the all together in the movie Splash. The park ranger’s exclamation was Bocce Balls! So kinda like that. These little things are so simple but so handy when you are camping and dealing with tarps or tie downs. I think I will have enough to share with my friends.

I'm quite happy to have these. After watching the video I thought that the "hook" would provide a much more trusty grab than the ball alone. I was right. Not only do I not fear a bungee coming loose from the cord slipping around the ball, the hooks just make them a little more versatile for holding other things. Both the hook and collar are new to me...this is the first time I've seen bungees with these features and I had to give them a try. I got the 12" size because they can sometimes be double-wrapped as needed for smaller things. I really wish they offered a combination of sizes, but these are inexpensive enough to get more if I need the shorter size.The collar can slide up and down the bungees so that you can cinch them up. There's enough friction holding the collar in place to keep it from freely sliding.The hook and collar can easily be removed if you need the traditional ball bungee, or if you want to put multiple hooks or collars on one bungee. I don't have a use-case for that yet, but it's a thought!A little background...a club I'm in hosts an annual event that uses large tarp canopies. The tarps are attached to metal poles using ball bungees. With the traditional bungees I'm always afraid of one flying off if someone is playing with them (it's a beer festival...there's some imbibing going on). Most of the time bungees get loose during assembly and disassembly of the canopy, usually when stretching the bungee around the ball and one or the other slips out of your fingers. If you've ever seen a bungee fly out of control, you know they can hurt. I think the hooks will help in both scenarios.As for the size. I got the 12" version. Ten of the twelve bungees measure just over 12" (measured per the image in the description). They should fit around a 12"-13" diameter object without stretching (adding the extra inch to the hook). The smallest one was an inch shorter, and the longest one an inch longer.The bungee cords stretched to nearly twice the normal length.At just under 1" diameter, the balls are smaller than the ones I'm used to using, but that does not seem to affect usage, especially using the hooks. The balls are larger than the grommets on the tarps, so all is well there.I think these are a great addition to my camping gear.

I love these bungee ties so much! They are perfect for a ton of different uses. I purchased them for camping and outdoor sports, but have found that they also work great for a lot of my gardening stuff. The ties bind items tightly but still gently and they are very stretchy with lots of give, which makes the ties very versatile! I love that the ends have the balls to aid in fastening - this makes them easy for those with dexterity problems to fasten and unfasten, plus they are easier to work with than basic disposable ties.Definitely five stars across the board. A+++! Highly recommend.

Simple and strong.

I love these heavy duty bungee cords; each consists of two parts: a high quality strong elastic cord, and white plastic bead. Both are held together by a knot below the bead. I can’t believe something so simply made is so good and useful! I have been going around the house wrapping all my electric cords. In the past I wrapped them with Velcro bands, but these Velcro bands got loose and lost very easily. Im now using the Ball Bungee Cords to wrap my electronic cables. I can even write on the ball with a Sharpie, allowing me to identify what product this cable belongs. The large bead makes it so easy to find. I have a tiny black brush, which I’m constantly misplacing. I wrapped the brush handle with the bungee and locating the brush is now easier. I’m very happy with this product.

This is a perfect size ball bungee to use to secure a tarp on a kennel. The bungees stretch easily but still secure the tarp tightly. If the bungees are in direct hot sunlight constantly, the rubber will stiffen and the bungee will need to be replaced after a while.
