lengthener
Makes things longer
A lengthener is something that makes another thing longer.
The word appears most often in sewing and crafts, where a lengthener is a piece of fabric added to extend a garment: She sewed a lace lengthener onto the hem of the dress.
In other contexts, anything that extends duration or distance might be called a lengthener.
