Today we're going to be taking a look at the Fastway Zip Coiled Trailer Break-Away Cable with the Included Plunger Pin. The coil design is going to keep the break-away cable from dragging on the ground, so no more frayed ends and there's no need to loop the cable around the trailer tongue to keep it away from the ground. This is a nearly universal fit. It's going to work as a replacement cable for Fastway and Bargman as well as most other pin style trailer break-away systems. Again, the plunger pin is included. It's already on there. It's also going to include a carabiner clip here on the other end.
It makes it very easy to clip a cable to your tow vehicle. The cable is a high strength cable that's made of woven steel. Then, it has a UV protective coating that's going to boost durability and it's scratch resistant so it's not going to scratch anything that it comes into contact with. When it's stretched out, this cable's going to measure up to 4 feet long. That's going to do it for today's look at the Fastway Zip Coiled Trailer Break-Away Cable with the Included Plunger Pin.

Replace the cable on your trailer breakaway device with this durable, coiled cord. No more dragging or fraying. No need to wrap cable around your trailer frame. Includes plunger pin. Fits most pin-style systems.I cannot yet figure out how to remove the plunger pin from the old ASCO breakaway switch to allow this one to be inserted. I will likely be returning it.
much better than a steel cable hanging all over the place.
I definitely prefer this over the long wire that RV manufacturers/dealerships usually include.
As described.
I like these no more looping cable in and out of chain links to keep other style from dragging.
as described..works well.
I didn't work as expected. It was the wrong type to fit into my breakaway switch. I wish they were of a standard type.
I will be using it in the future with a compatible switch on another trailer.

This item is compatible with most but not all breakaway systems.

Never used it. It may be used some day.
Every trailer needs one of these!
No complaints
Very simple item all trailers should have - complements safety cables like C80176 - Replaced both the original safety chains and breakaway cables on two new trailers. The convenience is well worth it.........
Definately going to work out perfect for my application, do your homework first and make sure its the right length and that the carabiner will fit where you are clipping it
Still working perfectly after a year and untold miles. Great product

Still operating as expected. Because it recoils out of the way it does not get damaged like the wire ones. Added benefit: no metal splinters from fraying wire rope!
This coiled cable is so much easier to use than the wire our emergency brake switch came with. No tangles and so slipping around the safety chains
The Fastway Zip Coiled Trailer Breakaway Cable was exactly what I needed to replace the standard breakaway cable which started to become worn. This cable should stay completely out of the way for as long as I own this trailer.
Replaced the standard cable with this one. Really like that it has a carabiner instead of a simple loop, doesn't dangle close to the road, and has a high visibility protective coating.
It's much less likely that I would forget to disconnect it, which is why I needed to replace the original in the first place!
As always I recieved my merchandise in a timely manner,ans it was exactly what it was advertised to be. I have purchased a couple thousand dollars of etrailer parts and I am always very satisfied whith their service and the very courteous and helpful staff they employ. I will continue to buy all my trailer needs from etrailer in the future.Thanks so much.
Excellent product, I was worried about it fitting but it was a perfect match to my brake module. My second time getting this, the first one is going on 3 years with no issues.
Great product and will work on two of my trailers
A little too short for use on my 5th wheel hitch. I have yet to try it.
Great product! Don't have to worry about wrapping up breakaway cable to prevent dragging the ground anymore!
Just as described, great product. At full extension (4'), it's tight, so make sure it is the appropriate length for your application.
just what I needed , now the breakaway cable will not drag again. Thanks
Worked as described. Having a clip on makes using the break away very convenient.
Awesome service and part was the same as manufacturer. Trailer back in service in less than a minute!
Great product! Much better than having a steel cable hanging loosely between the trailer and tow vehicle. Easier to attach to the tow vehicle as well. A simple solution to correcting this issue.
