If you're tired of your breakaway switch cable dragging the ground or fraying, replace it with this coiled cable. It easily attaches to your tow vehicle with the included carabiner. Includes switch plunger. Fits most pin-style systems.

Simple part that makes hooking my 5er easier and cleaner. The clamp is good size but I had to get a larger one to fit the floor anchors. Not the parts fault, otherwise nice product.
I was a bit skeptical about the length 6" trailer to tow, but it worked out well. Shipment was on time.
Love getting rid of the old worn cable. The coil means no more dragging on the ground. It fit into our brake box fine.

Fit right into my 2021 Quality car hauler trailer with no issues, and works like a charm!
Fast shipping and just what I was needing. I will be ordering from etrailer for all my rv needs for sure.
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!
Works perfect!
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.
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.

Exactly what I needed to get the breakaway system back in working order for our travel trailer. Thanks and as always, fast delievery.
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.
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.
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.
The breakaway cable was a perfect fit and very easy to install. It was just a matter of inserting the plunger into the switch and clipping the the carabiner hook to the safety chain loop on my tow vehicle.
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.
Good product as advertised
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!
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.
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.

No issues with the cable after 12 months. Recommend I specting before each use just to be safe.
I love how out of the way this breakaway cable is!
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
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.
