Nama Claw Gear - Just purchased some - anybody else use these

[SoaknWet]

Had to check. Put me in the me too list! Have used them on both hammock and tarp tie outs with no signs of wear for almost a year now.

I use them on all CRL's. Dutch hook, nama claws, dutch stinger. I love them

Use them on a CRL. They don't slip and have not noticed any damage.

I just remembered that I recorded a close up of my Nama claws on my tarp ridgeline for a video I did when I got my new UGQ tarp. I rewatched the video to see if there was any tear on the line and I didn't see any at all. I'm using zing it/ lash it. I had been using them for about 6 months at the time of the video.

If you want to see for yourself, look around the 6:00 mark.

Love it!!! This made my day. An awesome video.

I use a Dutch hook on one end and a Namaclaw as the tensioner at the other end trucker hitch style. I use prussicks for positioning the tarp. I used to use a Niteize Camjam for tensioning the ridgeline, but I had to use amsteel for the diameter to catch in it and hold. Namaclaws are so much smaller and use a lighter line

I also have nama gear claws on the doors of my Superfly tarp and they work great for a tight closure.
From my experience,any sort of metal on zingit is going to produce a little wear regardless of who manufactured the tensioner but I have never needed to worry about it so far.Zingit is light weight and easy to carry some extra if you think you'll need it.

These are the bomb! Great design that make it easy to adjust my tarp ridgeline. I've got them on my recently purchased Autumn Ultralight ridgeline, with stealty black line.

Not more fussing with slippery prussicks or pesky insects.

Totally agree awesome product - Reminder though that Dyna-glide @ 1.8mm is probably max size on these - Lash-It/Zing-It in 1.75mm is ok but in the 2.2mm will be too big.
Out of curiosity is there line in UHMP - AKA Dyneema like cord - small as 1.2mm?
I ask because that is what the NAMA CLAW website shows for range of use.

I’ve had mine a few months and noticed them tearing up the line. Going to switch out to hardware free.
