Nite Ize Gear Tie Bendable S-Hook Flexible S-Hook — Black

The Gear Tie Bendable S-Hook is a reshapeable S-hook with an internal wire core and rubber outer coating, available in 10 mm diameter. It is designed to hang, secure and organise gear in the field, in storage or in a vehicle, on any anchor point that can accept one end of the hook: branches, metal frames, cargo nets, pack frames.

The internal metal core holds whatever shape you give it without springing back, so the hooking end can be bent around an irregular support and left in place without any additional fastening. The rubber coating will not scratch surfaces, does not slip on wet metal, and provides enough grip to hold tools, torches, containers and other pieces of kit during transport or quick retrieval. UV resistance and waterproofing make it suitable for permanent outdoor installation without degrading under prolonged exposure to the elements.

Unlike a rigid S-hook, the flexibility of the Gear Tie S-Hook lets you conform both ends to the geometry of the anchor and the load, removing the risk of the hook slipping off thin or irregular profiles. The trade-off is that retention strength depends on how well the user forms the bend: a carefully shaped hook is stable, but it does not offer the mechanical locking of a screw-gate carabiner. This is a tool intended for organisation and quick access, not for structural loads or working at height.

Key points

• The 10 mm diameter allows the hook to be wrapped around thin supports such as cables, net frames and branches without losing grip.
• The metal core holds the shape once formed, so the hooking configuration does not loosen during use or transport.
• The waterproof, UV-resistant rubber coating allows continuous outdoor use without degradation.
• It does not scratch or mark painted, anodised or plastic surfaces — useful when attached to vehicles or valuable equipment.
• Indefinitely reusable: reshape it, reposition it and move it from one anchor point to another without tools.
