In the realm of tactical gear, few items have proven as versatile and indispensable as this exceptional parachute cord. Developed originally for military use during World War II, this commercial variant continues to uphold a legacy of strength and reliability that any outdoorsman or survival enthusiast will appreciate.
Crafted with precision in America by a certified government contractor, this 550 Type II Commercial Paracord boasts an impressive tensile strength of 500 pounds. This makes it an invaluable asset whether you're navigating the challenges of the great outdoors or simply preparing your home for unforeseen emergencies.
The core is composed of seven individual strands, each consisting of two plies. These can be removed individually when needed in various survival situations—be it constructing shelters, setting snares, fishing lines, or even fashioning emergency first aid tools. The sheath itself features 32 woven strands that contribute to its remarkable durability while maintaining a lightweight profile ideal for quick-drying applications.
Aesthetically pleasing with sharp and vibrant patterns, this paracord doesn’t just perform; it stands out visually too. Measuring at 5/32 inches in diameter and made from 100 percent woven nylon material known for being rot-resistant, it's designed to withstand both time and elements without compromise.
This paracord is not merely accessory but rather essential equipment—a must-have addition to any well-prepared kit aimed at tackling life's unpredictable moments head-on with confidence and resilience.
