Black Silicone Strap Loop for Garmin Vivofit JR, 16 mm
A split keeper is one of the most common faults on a well-used Garmin Vivofit JR strap. This black replacement loop,…
passant-GarVi-03-4Lost the keeper on your Garmin Approach X40? This black silicone strap loop is made for its 18 mm strap and stops the loose end from flapping or catching on clothing. Durable, water-resistant and pleasant to wear, it suits training sessions as well as everyday use, and it rinses clean under the tap with a little soap.
Owners of the Garmin Approach X40 wear it both on the course and as an everyday activity band, which means the keeper is under strain from morning to evening. If yours has torn or simply vanished, this black silicone replacement brings back a secure, flat-lying strap end.
The X40 uses an 18 mm strap with its own contour. Keepers taken from other watches tend to twist or slide along such a band. This loop is moulded to match it, wrapping both layers of the strap without leaving a gap or bulging. Black is a straightforward match for the standard band and the dark display.
Putting it on is a matter of seconds: guide the strap tip through, stretch the silicone slightly and settle it near the buckle. Silicone is a sensible material for a band you also wear in the shower, at the gym or on a wet fairway, as it does not absorb water and is washed with soap.
Measure the band, not the case: the 18 mm refers to the strap width at the keeper. If your X40 strap is a third-party model, check it with a ruler first.
Is the X40 keeper the same as the one for the X10? Both bands are 18 mm wide, but this loop is listed for the Approach X40 strap; choose the listing that names your model.
Will a black loop look out of place on a coloured X40 band? Not really; black reads as a neutral accent on most strap colours.
