The Gear Keeper is at the core of an extensive product line that boasts an impressive array of benefits and features: a patented flushing system that clears sand and debris from the unit, is salt-water proof, and will withstand high-temperature environments; a patented Q/C Connector System that provides quick and easy connection/disconnection of gear.
Introduction
The New RT4 series features 60 lbs. break-strength, stainless steel nylon coated cable or an optional high-tensile Spectra line. Both series Gear Keepers have high-impact housings and are available in multiple spring forces and mounting options for any gear you need to keep handy and can’t afford to lose.
The original CB Mic Keeper revolutionized the mounting of a CB Mic in a truck by eliminating the dangling found with bungie cords, hitting the driver in the head or dropping on the dash. It makes your CB Mic much more convenient and easier to use—Grab your Mic, use it, let it go.
The New RT4 series Standard CB Mic Keeper provides longer extension and twice the spring life. Now, in the same small package size, you get extra reach and durability.
If you are constantly on the CB, drive in very rough environments, have a very heavy Mic or perform team driving, the Heavy-Duty model is your best bet.
It comes with a convenient D-ring for mounting the Gear Keeper to any existing screw (i.e., headliner, visor, radio mount or dome light). Additionally, the lanyard attachment drops the Mic to a convenient hanging position.
How to Install the Gear Keeper CB Mic Keeper?
- Attach the D-ring to available screw in truck cab.
