The strong NRS Tow Tether, with built-in bungee, is used with the quick-release harnesses on rescue life jackets.

• Tow Tether lengths:
  33": Stretched length is 84 cm, unstretched is 48 cm
  53": Stretched length is 135 cm, unstretched is 84 cm
  Add 15 cm to length for carabiner and metal O-ring
• The Tow Tether, sometimes called a "cow tail," enhances towing boats in rescue situations.
• The stainless steel O-ring includes a hook patch of "hook and loop" material that facilitates centering of the O-ring on vests that have the loop material sewn on in the back.
• The Tether also has a hook patch on the carabiner end. This mates with a loop piece available on some rescue PFDs, forming a quick-release holder for the carabiner.
• The NRS Nuq Twist Lock Carabiner prevents accidental snag on brush in the field or with other gear.
