Sideoftheroad Posted June 29, 2011 Share #1 Posted June 29, 2011 Anyone know what the plastic thing is call at the end of a guy line? It is oval or rectangular w/ 2 holes in it that you feed the guy line through. Yes I know it is not necessary to create a loop to tie a stake to, but just wanting to know what it is called.

Heck, I just called it a short piece of dowell with a hole drilled through each end. But I guess the technical name for them is Guy Line Tighteners.
