Dakotaline Cable Restraint

These restraints are engineered to meet many state-specific snaring regulations, including the use of breakaway devices and specific lock types. However, trapping laws vary significantly by state and region, so you should always verify your local regulations before deployment.

The pre-loading process ensures the cable maintains its shape and closes quickly upon contact. This consistency minimizes the need for manual adjustments in the field, allowing for a faster and more reliable setup.

Cleaning and dyeing the cable removes manufacturing oils and reduces the metallic scent and sheen. This process helps minimize animal refusals, making the restraint less noticeable in a natural environment.

The breakaway device is designed to release if the restraint is subjected to a force greater than 285 pounds. This is a critical safety feature intended to allow non-target animals to break free from the loop.

Yes, the loop size is adjustable between 2.5 and 12 inches. This range allows you to tailor the restraint to the specific size of the target animal while maintaining proper function.

The 7x7 cable configuration provides a balance of flexibility and strength, making it highly resistant to kinking and breakage. This specific construction has been tested over thousands of trapline miles to ensure it holds up under consistent field use.
