KEY-BAK S48 Locking Retractable Reel, 48in Stainless Steel Cable, Tough Polycarbonate Case, Steel Black,5.79 x 1.78 x 8.64 cm

My old metal and chain Keybak reels lasted many, many years of daily use, so I was determined to find another. It seems only plastic ones are available now; however, it feels solid and robust, and I expect it to last.

Very strong

A lot of poor key chains out there, this isn't one of them

Have had two of these previously which were great but sadly snapped. This particular one is weak, does not have the power to retract, not sure if it’s a knock off or just the product has gone down hill that much!

Was good, I use it extremely lightly with the keys only being used 3-4 times per day. However the pin on the belt clasp fell off and couldn’t be found, and now it falls off my belt. Rubbish.

La marca hace buenas cosas

I almost purchased a smaller, less expensive version but there were 3 things which convinced me to buy this particular Key-Bak: > 48-inch cable At work, they issue a very cheap, retractable-key version. (Not even the "Key-Bak" brand.) The cable is short, probably 24-inches and whatever it's made out of, breaks more often than we should be dealing with. I've been finding that the 48-inch cable length of this Key-Bak has been very handy, more than I initially realized. I'm glad I didn't buy the shorter one. > Durability I was going to buy a shorter-cable Key-Bak but when I saw that it had a "steel" cable, it convinced me to buy this one. The plastic housing also seems to be very well made. > Reviews I read several other Reviews here but the ones which convinced me to buy this particular Key-Bak are the ones where those Owners had left their key in the Ignition when they got out of their vehicle. Naturally, the Key-Bak Product would break but what sold me was when they said they would buy another one. My experience with this Key-Bak has been very positive. I work 5-days a week and right around 8-hours a day. I'm a Janitor at work. My Key-Bak only contains 4 smaller Dispenser keys and a Key Fob for the many doors I have to open throughout the day. Although I open a few different "types" doors, I probably use that Key Fob 80 times during each Shift. So about 400 times each week and I've had this Key-Bak for almost 2-months now. As I examine it closely, the only sign of "use" is a very minor scuff (not even a "scratch") mark on the flat part where the name is. Yes, I lock and unlock the ball-joint many times throughout the day. When I first saw the photos of this Product, I thought the slot up its side was unnecessary but once I started using it, I quickly realized that this is the track for the cable. Without that slot, the Key-Bak would twist and put pressure on your belt. This is a well thought out Product. Before deciding on this particular Key-Bak, I did hesitate because of it's size. Yes, it is 2.25-inches wide but it's also 2.75-inches tall (not counting the Ring or the Ring's holder). The Ring itself is 1.5-inches in diameter. So, with the Ring locked in place, the entire unit measures 4.5-inches (from the top of the holder to the bottom of the Ring). I'm an average size guy but with this Product on my belt, I don't feel like it's out of place on me. The only "negative" I can find for this Product is that it takes me several seconds to remove it from my belt. Of course, this could be a "positive" for some of you. In other words, it's not going to come off of your belt unless YOU purposely remove it. ------- Update ------- This Product lasted almost a year. I didn't realize that "I" had been abusing it by always releasing my keys when the cable was fully extended to its 48-inch length... but even with that it did last quite a while. When it broke, I did some research and bought a different Brand. This one had a 31-inch reach, a metal shell and was "supposedly" Rate at 100,000 Pulls. It last ALMOST 1-month. (The entire Product just came apart.) Two of the same Products came in the same Order. Just a week before it broke, I had given the 2nd one to a co-worker. The day it broke, I decided to go back to a "Key-Bak". It should be here in a few days. When the Key-Bak broke, its cable had pulled-away from its connection inside the plastic housing. With the new Key-Bak, I think I'm going to place a rubber washer on the cable, between that metal ball and the plastic housing. This should help absorb a bit of the shock each time I release my keys.

Key-Bak... LA référence pour ne plus jamais perdre vos clés ou vos badges. Tellement solide que après 2 ans d’utilisation quotidienne il est encore comme neuf! Prix un peut élevé mais ça vaut largement le coup! Léger et quasi invisible une fois accroché à la ceinture. Cordon plus que suffisamment long. Verrou de sécurité pour éviter que les clés ne tombent due à leurs poids.

I bought this to replace my previous Key-bak which lasted through 11 years of daily use including on a motorcycle jacket carrying work ID, reference cards, locker key and garage access.
