Expander slings - flexible fastening for banners, tarpaulins and more

Expander slings are the proven solution when it comes to reliable and flexible fastening. Whether for tarpaulins, banners, trailers, tents or other applications - these elastic helpers impress with their high tensile strength, robustness and easy handling. We supply elastic straps with balls, hooks, spiral hooks or toggles in lengths from 120 mm to 250 mm as well as in individual special sizes. Our color palette ranges from classic black, white and grey to eye-catching neon orange, neon yellow, neon green and royal blue. On request, we can also produce other colors to optimally support your individual projects.

Why tensioning rubbers are indispensable

Elastic fastening slings are now standard in many industries and everyday situations. They combine elasticity with stability and enable quick fastening without the need for tools. Whether as tarpaulin tensioners, banner holders, rubber tensioners or tent elastic - they are used wherever flexible tensioning is required.

Variety of mounting options

• Banner tensioner with ball - ideal for tarpaulins with eyelets, quick assembly with secure hold.
• Rubber slings with hooks - can be used universally for trailer tarpaulins, camping or workshops.
• Expander ropes with spiral hooks - particularly robust, durable and suitable for high tensile loads.
• Tensioning loops with toggle - practical for temporary fastenings, quick release and reusable.

Colors and lengths for every need

We offer our tarpaulin rubbers in standard lengths from 120 mm to 250 mm. Individual lengths are also possible - perfect for special constructions or special areas of application. You can choose between classic and eye-catching colors:

• Black - timeless and inconspicuous
• White - for discreet use, e.g. at trade fairs or exhibitions
• Gray - neutral and versatile

Quality that convinces

Our rubber tensioners are made from high-quality expander rope. This consists of a tear-resistant rubber core with a textile cover. This ensures a long service life, high elasticity and resistance to weather influences. The slings are particularly suitable for outdoor use thanks to their UV resistance and dimensional stability.

Customized production

We not only offer standard sizes, but also customized solutions. If you need rubber tent bands in special lengths, special colors or with special end pieces, we can manufacture them according to your specifications. This means that even complex projects are no problem.

Synonyms and alternative terms

So that you can find exactly what you are looking for: elastic tensioning rubbers are also known as rubber slings, rubber tensioners, tarpaulin rubbers, tent rubbers, tensioning loops or banner tensioners. All terms ultimately describe the same product - elastic slings with various end pieces for flexible fastening.

How to choose the right fastening sling

Depending on the area of application, the length, the end variant and the color play a role:
