    Which strap/bungee for hds12 covers?

    I’m sure this has been discussed but I’m new to the party. Does anyone have a name or link to the right straps/bungees to hold covers on hds12s going down the road? Thanks

    I use the Wrap-It velcro straps for all my graphs. I get them at Northern Tool but I'm sure you can get them at other places.

    I use bungee cords from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I use two of them per screen, interlock the two balls, and then stretch the two ends over the knobs or locks on each end. They have worked great with no issues with them.

    I had the BoatXFX ones, but lost a cover recently - posted this in the other cover strap thread. They stretch quite a bit, and I guess allowed a corner to lift and after that she went flying. I'm back to using velcro straps, same ones fisheye posted - the 1x30 works great on 12" units.

    You use two different sizes for a 12"? How are you attaching them?

    I connect the 6" to the 9" and it fits around a 12" HDS Live or Carbon perfectly. I use a 2 pair on each graph, but it might be overkill when i set would work.

Since the BoatXFX failed me I'll take a look at the ball/cord deal... thanks.
