Toggle, Cord Locks & Spring Toggles
A toggle is a simple and practical way to secure, adjust or finish cord, elastic and drawstring. At Cams Cords, our range includes barrel toggles, bean toggles and other cord locks in different colours, materials, shapes and sizes.
Whether you are working on clothing, bags, outdoor equipment or a fabric project, the right toggle can provide an easy and reliable way to keep cord in place. Choose from individual products and convenient packs to suit your project.
Spring Toggles for Cord and Elastic
Spring toggles are designed to grip cord or elastic while allowing you to adjust the position when needed. They are particularly useful for drawstring applications where the cord needs to be tightened or loosened regularly.
A spring mechanism inside the toggle provides the locking action, while the opening allows the cord to pass through. Different toggle sizes are suited to different cord and elastic diameters, so it is important to check the product specifications before ordering.
Choosing the Right Toggle Product
The right toggle depends on the type of cord, elastic or fabric application you are working with. Consider the following when choosing a product:
- The diameter and type of cord or elastic
- The size and shape of the toggle
- Whether you need a single piece or a pack
- The material, such as plastic or metal
- The colour and finish
- How the toggle will be used on your project
For lightweight applications, a smaller plastic toggle may be suitable, while larger products can provide a more substantial grip for thicker cord. Always compare the listed size with your cord before you order. The type of cord you use will also influence which toggle is most suitable. For projects using elastic or shock cord like this black 3mm one, check the toggle opening and product specifications to ensure the two components are compatible.
Barrel Toggles, Bean Toggles and Cord Ends
Our range includes different toggle shapes and styles to suit different applications. Barrel toggles provide a compact option for securing cord, while bean toggles offer another practical shape for projects where a comfortable grip and easy adjustment are important.
Cord toggles can also be used alongside cord ends to create a neat and finished appearance. Depending on the product, options are available in colours including black, green, blue, orange, pink, purple, red, white and yellow.
Toggles for Clothing, Bags and Fabric Projects
A toggle can be a useful fastener for a wide range of everyday projects. They can be used with drawstring closures on clothing, bags and accessories, as well as outdoor equipment and other fabric applications.
When using a toggle with fabric, make sure the cord, elastic and fastener are appropriate for the material and intended use. Some applications may require the cord to be sewn securely into the fabric before the toggle is fitted.
Toggles can also be useful beyond clothing and bags, including outdoor projects where adjustable cord is required. If you are working with paracord, make sure the toggle opening is suitable for the cord diameter before ordering.
For projects requiring multiple matching fasteners, packs can also be a convenient option.
Metal Toggle and Wall Fixing Options
Cams Cords also offers metal toggle options for applications where a different type of fastener is required. Metal products can provide a more substantial construction and may be available in different finishes.
For wall applications, the appropriate toggle or fixing should always be selected according to the wall material and intended load. When working with plasterboard or hollow wall surfaces, check the product specifications and installation requirements before creating a hole or using a drill.
Use the correct fixing method for the wall type and application, and always follow the manufacturer's recommendations.

What is a toggle used for?
A toggle is used to secure, adjust or finish cord, elastic and drawstring. It provides a simple alternative to tying a knot and allows the cord to be tightened or loosened when required. Toggles are commonly used on clothing, bags, accessories, outdoor equipment and fabric projects. The correct product depends on the cord size, application and amount of adjustment required.
What are spring toggles?
Spring toggles use a spring mechanism to grip cord or elastic while allowing the user to adjust its position. They are commonly used for drawstring closures, clothing, bags and outdoor equipment. The spring holds the cord in place while still allowing adjustment when the toggle is pressed. Always check the product size to make sure it is compatible with your cord or elastic.
What size toggle do I need?
The correct toggle size depends on the diameter and type of cord or elastic you are using. The cord needs to pass through the toggle opening while still being securely gripped by the locking mechanism. Before ordering, compare your cord diameter with the product specifications. The size of the toggle should also suit the scale and intended use of your project.
Can toggles be used with elastic?
Yes, many toggles can be used with elastic where the product is suitable for the elastic size and application. They can provide an adjustable way to secure elastic without permanently tying it.
