Today we're going to be taking a look at the Fastway Zip Coiled Trailer Breakaway Cable with the included Plunger Pin. The coiled design is going to keep your breakaway cable from dragging on the ground, so you don't have to worry about any frayed ends. There's no need to loop the cable around the trailer tongue to keep it away from the ground. Overall, the coiled cable's going to offer a better, cleaner look. This is a nearly universal fit. It's going to work as a replacement cable for Fastway, Bargman, and most other pin style trailer breakaway systems.
The plunger pin is included with the unit. It's also going to include a carabiner clip on this side. That's going to make it very easy to clip the cable to your tow vehicle. The cable itself is a high strength cable. It's made of woven steel. It has a UV protective coating that's going to boost your ability.
It's scratch resistant, meaning that it's not going to scratch anything that it comes into contact with. When it's all the way stretched out, this is going to have a measurement of up to six feet long. That's going to do it for today's look at the Fastway Zip Coiled Trailer Breakaway 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 bought two different lengths of the coiled breakaway cable with plunger. These are so much better to use as they don't drag on the ground and even look nicer on the trailers.

Love getting rid of the old worn cable. The coil means no more dragging on the ground. It fit into our brake box fine.
The 14" long Reese Weight Distribution Shank is exactly what I needed to install hitch mounted mud flaps. The shank provided by Fastway e2 Weight Distribution Hitch was too short for that purpose, see photos. The Reese shank is solid and well made. Shipping was fast and online purchase was easy.
Bought this as a replacement for the standard cable that came with the trailer, it was worn out and I just purchased a Hensley arrow (hitch set up) so that extended the tongue by a foot. This is the 6’ version so fits well and it coils right up and stays out of the way. Great product
Fit right into my 2021 Quality car hauler trailer with no issues, and works like a charm!
Excellent experience. I was surprised that I could get a spare breakaway plunger overnight. This business is unique in the retail business. I will always try them 1st when I need items that they stock. Thank you Etrailer.
Excellent solution! I run a fleet of over 20 trailers and the most common problem was guys hooking the tiny breakaway to the safety chains, Or not at all. Standardizing a bright, Large, Individual hook ensured everyone saw and attached their trailer safely every time!
I was a bit skeptical about the length 6" trailer to tow, but it worked out well. Shipment was on time.
Very happy with the cable after owning for a year. Would recommend frequent inspections of the cable to assure that it is not nicked or chaffed from rubbing against the hitch. Given the role this cable plays in towing a trailer safely, I would recommend replacing the cable if it does become worn or nicked.
Great service and just the part that was needed
A great replacement for the fixed-length factory cable that is difficult to route without entangling the safety chains. The coiled cable stays taught and safely out of the way.

Awesome! Hundreds of trailer hook-unhook-ups with no tangling. Should be standard equipment on every trailer.
Compact and easy to store.
Great product. The plastic key part of the breakaway switch on my dump trailer looks to be a different configuration than that on this plunger pin. I will need to use the original pin on this coiled cable somehow.
Works great. Love it !!
Works as intended
Great cords get about 1 year of construction use that is very abusive

Pull cords after a year of construction abuse cords still work but have lost their coil. This year going to a heavier cable this time yo see if it can take these hard workers
Little modification but works perfect
Great product. Well made. Prevents need for modification of old self-coiling break away cable that was too long and dragged on the road if left unmodified. Well with the small investment.
I've always liked etrailer products and their prices are the best around.

Still going strong
I bought this to go between my Motor home and towed vehicle. The product works great only issue I have is the plug in is a little bit bigger than the break away switch that I have attached to my car already. I'm going to attempt to file it down so it fits in there a little bit better. Other than that I would have given it 5 stars.
part took several weeks to get to me, but etrailer provided excellent updates on status. their personal attention alone would keep me coming back. i bought one of these cables for my other trailer and liked it so much i needed it for my second trailer. highly recommend.
Exactly what I needed to get the breakaway system back in working order for our travel trailer. Thanks and as always, fast delievery.
This cable is perfect! Being coiled and not just a straight cable makes it easy and convenient and not in the way.
Great breakaway cable!

No issues with the cable after 12 months. Recommend I specting before each use just to be safe.
