{"product_id":"tie-down-keeper","title":"Tie Down Keeper – Braided Rope","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe cheapest insurance on your whole rig. This braided nylon rope tie down keeper holds your tie down strap up and in position, so it stays where it belongs instead of sagging where a leg can catch it. We recommend running a keeper with every tie down we sell — a few dollars of rope that can save you a wreck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSimple on Purpose\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne length of stout braided nylon rope, looped and hand-tied off with a knot that doesn't slip. The loop runs about 8\" long, the black disappears against any rig, and there's not a single piece of hardware to rust, squeak, or work loose. Nylon shrugs off sweat, rain, and mud — wipe it down and it's ready for tomorrow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBraided nylon rope, hand-tied\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLoop length (approx.)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardware\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAny standard tie down strap\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMade in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIndiana, USA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does a tie down keeper do?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt holds your tie down strap up and in position while you ride. Without one, a tie down strap can sag low enough for a horse to paw over it or hang a leg in it — a keeper is the simple piece of safety equipment that prevents that wreck. We recommend one with any tie down, ours or anybody else's.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill it fit my tie down?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — one size fits any standard tie down strap, including our \u003ca href=\"\/products\/leather-tie-down-strap-1\"\u003e1\" leather tie down strap\u003c\/a\u003e.
