1/2" Side Release Buckle
These high quality buckles have a slim profile but are much stronger than the generic half inch (10 mm) buckles you may find elsewhere. They can handle being tensioned down tight so they are great for gear customization. We use them on our backpack's top strap and sternum strap. The male side adjusts, and the female side does not.
These buckles have a wide mouth and narrow prongs so they are easier to snap together.

Tiny Cord Lock (5 pack)
They are indeed tiny and they hold the yellow 1.3mm line very well.

These ultralight cord locks are a perfect match for your thin draw cords. Our cord locks have a strong spring which grips thin cord well, and the shape is easy to press without hurting your fingers.
The hole size is about 1/8" (3 mm). It will fit two passes of our 1.2 mm Z-line cord.

Micro Lineloc
Great little tool. If you are not a knot guru, then these are for you. I use them regularly on my Zpacks tarp and they work well and hold their position.
– Klaus K., ★★★★★
These linelocs are the smallest and lightest available for thin guylines. They are easy to add to existing guy lines without modifying your shelter.
Micro linelocs allow you to adjust your guy lines to 50% of the original length and are are best for shorter guy lines. They will hold tight on our 1.2 mm Z-Line cord.
Our Lineloc V with loop is another great adjuster that allows you to cinch your lines down 100% and is less tangle prone.
Lineloc V Guy Line Adjuster
Got these for my tarp and they’ve been working quite well. It makes things much easier when pitching.
– Brian T., ★★★★★
These custom made linelocs will fit thinner 1 to 2.3 mm cord. They have a tighter “V” shaped groove which holds tight on thin lines. Our 1.3 mm Z-Line cord is an excellent choice.
They work well with long or short guy lines, and they are less prone to tangling compared to Micro Line Locs.
These need to be sewn on to your gear project. If you prefer to retrofit linelocs without sewing, our Line Loc V with Loop can be looped on to existing tie outs.
Lineloc V with Loop
If you want the lightest guy lines possible with the convenience of easy adjustability then these Lineloc V adjusters are your answer. These linelocs are custom made with a tighter “V” shaped groove which holds tight on thin 1 to 2 mm cord. Our 1.3 mm Z-Line cord is an excellent choice.
They work well with long or short guy lines, and they are less prone to tangling compared to Micro Line Locs.
These Lineloc V's can be looped on to the tie outs of an existing shelter using a lark's head knot. They are also available for sale without the loop here.

3/4" Center Release Flat Clip
A flat buckle that doesn't rub you the wrong way. This slim buckle works with 3/4" (20 mm) binding tape. We use this on the neck of our sleeping bags, and on some clothing items where a protruding buckle would be in the way. The male side adjusts, and the female side does not. The buckles will break under high tension so they are best in applications where they aren't under a lot of stress.
1/2" Ladder Loc Buckle
Switch out your old ladder loc buckles for a stronger and lighter option. These allow you to adjust webbing for shoulder straps, top straps, load lifter straps, side straps etc. Our ladder locs have a low profile and are at least twice as strong as the run-of-the-mill variety. These buckles can hold 60 lbs (27 kg) of weight without bending or snapping.
