Made in America

Rope Lok Made in America.
My Brother, Sister and myself went down to Erin Rope Corp in Blue Island, IL, to watch them make our rope. This is one of only a few companies in the USA that still makes rope here in America, and as you know we are keeping our No Knot Rope Lok, 100% made in the USA. After meeting with our sales representative Tom Leyden, and the owner of the company they then took us on a tour of the plant. The first things that we noticed was how clean and neat the place was, and how organized everything seemed to be. They had two of the rope making machines running with our rope, the other machines were making all different size and color rope. After we had left the plant on our way back to Michigan, we were talking about how hard it is to be a manufacturer in the USA, trying to compete with overseas factories, in the end it is all worth it.
We have been to each company that we purchase from and have seen them with our own eyes, American workers making American products; we are trying to do our part by keeping our factory right here in Michigan. Here is a list of the companies that we purchase from, you are welcome to contact them and see the factories for yourself. Rope from Erin Rope Corp, Blue Island, IL, Lock from McPherson Plastics, Otsego, MI, Header from Imperial Graphics, Grand Rapids, MI, Farrell’s from Schupan Aluminum, Kalamazoo, MI, Shrink from Electro Insulation, Arlington Heights, IL, SS roll pins from Fastenal, Kalamazoo, MI, Boxes from Mall City Container, Kalamazoo, MI.
We would like everyone to check and see where the products are being made before you buy, it may cost a little more to purchase a product made in the USA, but you are saving American jobs and supporting the American economy when you purchase made in the USA products. We at Rope Lok are doing our part to help support American; you should do the same, buy American.

Allegan News Online

When Doug Hassing became a statistic in Michigan’s unemployment rate, which is currently at nearly 14 percent with jobs being outsourced regularly, the Otsego resident made his own job. Enter Rope Lok LLC. Hassing created the Plainwell business, located in the city’s industrial park, to manufacture the Rope Lok, his invention that “eliminates wasted time spent by cutting rope, tying and prying apart stubborn knots.”

Fender Hangers

The No Knot Rope Lok is the ultimate in Fender Hangers. Why buy an expensive Fender Hanger that can only be used for one thing. Why spend $10, $15 OR EVEN $20 on a Fender Hanger only to find you have to purchase the rope separately. Some hangers must mount on your boat, not what I would do on my new boat. You have seen other so called No Knot Fender Hangers in stores, even those you must tie to your Fender Hanger, No Knot, not really. Our No Knot Rope Lok makes a perfect Fender Hanger, just loop rope through your hanger then around the rail, back through lock and your done. Use your No Knot Rope Lok to tie off your boat to the dock, then use them for securing your cooler, tackle boxes or tubes while traveling out on the lake. There are hundreds of uses for the Rope Lok in the boating industry, tying down a Kayak, tying your boat to the dock or holding down a boat cover on your trailer. Every time you use your Rope Lok you will think of dozens more uses for it. Made from 6/6 Nylon attached to polypropylene rope, they are durable, UV protected and easy to use. In this economy when money is tight, the last thing you need to do is buy three separate products for three different applications, when one will do it all. The No Knot Rope Lok will be the one tie down that you will want in your Boat, Truck, Camping Trailer and at Home.

Unlike a lot of tie downs out on the market, that you have to tie one or both ends then use some sort of lock in the center, like a pulley or a twist type lock. The Rope Lok has no metal gears, pulleys or thumbscrews that will rust or fill with dirt and break.

Anyone that has used straps knows how much noise and vibration they can make traveling down the road, you do not need to listen to that all the way to the lake.

Ladder tie down

Is tying your ladder down to your roof rack a pain in the you know what. Are you tired of fighting with your old rubber straps, there either too short or too long so you twist them to make them the right length? How about those small ratchet straps, the ones you cannot release, or just do not work at all. I also see people using electrical wire or rope with twenty or so knots in them. Easier than a ratchet strap, safer than those rubber strap and quicker than the rope pulley system, there is nothing better or more convenient than our No Knot Rope Lok.
Rope Lok has just made tying your ladder to your roof rack a lot easier with the No Knot Rope Lok. It has never been easier to tie down your ladder, PVC pipe or lumber to your rack. Just loop the rope around the load and rack, push loose end through lok, pull tight and lock. The No Knot Rope Lok comes pre assembled and ready to use in 8’, 8’ 2 pak and 15’ lengths and can be linked together to make them as long as you need. With the lock made from 6/6 Nylon and the rope from polypropylene the No Knot Rope Lok is great in all weather conditions. No pulleys to bind up, gears to rust or hooks to come off. Simply the best tie down you will ever own.

2009 Shot Show Orlando FL

Welcom to SHOT Show!Well, we got throught he first day of SHOT with a couple of hiccups in the process (hotel, traffic, etc.) but the overall experience has been terrific so far. We will admit right off the bat that were not prepared for the sheer magnitude of the SHOT show and its number of vendors that were present. Yesterday was pretty much just a recon session for us to see the layout of the land, make a few contacts, and see how the whole process worked. But, along the way, we were still able to see some great new products, but today, we will be getting down to more detail and setting up opportunities for us to review the newest gear in the future. Also, even though we saw a lot of great grear, we won't be able to put up some of the pictures we took until later this evening.

Grabber's RopeLokSome of the things that I saw off the bat that drew my attention were newly available items that were present at the show for us to handle and get some information on. One of the first things I came across was an item called a RopeLok. It's an interesting concept that will aid those of us who are challendge with tying snug and secure knots in rope. It's a length of rope either 8 or 15' long with a polymer tube-like housing at the end. You run the opposite end of the rope through the tube, and then you flip down a lever on top of the tube that digs into and locks the rope in place. Much like a Chinese finger puzzle, the harder you pull, the tighter is gets. I had a chance to meet the inventor and his family, but the product is actually distributed by Grabber. This a very handy item for those people that do a lot of travelilng or play in the outdoors. Check it out when you get a chance.

NEW NEW NEW NEW

This is a product for everyone who is tired of knots. Knots that slip, the ones that come undone, but more so for those that will stay tied forever. Our product is intended for all, sportsmen, women, the people who love to camp, or the one who is just securing a load in their truck, where ever you tie a knot, it’s that simple to use. A person out camping can use the No Knot Rope Lok in many different ways, for a clothesline, to secure tents without having to re tighten all of the support lines that constantly seem to relax, to secure your boat on the top of a car, or in the back of a truck. This will take the place of those dangerous bungee cords, the rusty hard to use ratchet straps and never tie a knot again.
