Other Names include Parrel Beads, rope stoppers, tie balls, halyard stoppers, or stopper balls, they make excellent line terminations but can also be fitted inline. At the end of a line, these toggles can provide an easy-to-grab end knob as well as being a durable stop to prevent the line from pulling all the way through the deck fitting. In applications where they would not need to be removed with each use, stopper balls can be more reliable and effective than a stopper knot at the end of the line. They are also commonly found on the end of shock cord in various applications.
Our 20mm or 25mm options are suitable for 5mm line.
