550 Type II Paracord: Essential Gear for the Modern Outdoorsman
The 550 Type II Commercial Paracord stands as a testament to durability, strength, and versatility—a true companion for those who venture into the wild or simply seek reliability at home. Originally developed during World War II for military parachutes, this paracord has transcended its initial purpose to become an indispensable tool in countless survival scenarios.
Crafted from 100% woven nylon by certified government contractors right here in America, this cord boasts a remarkable tensile strength of 500 pounds.

The vibrant patterns enhance visibility while maintaining aesthetic appeal.
