High-quality 550 paracord stretches much more than most people think. If it is made properly it should stretch 30 percent without breaking. The military actually requires exactly that of any paracord it uses. So if you see a paracord that claims to be ‘mil-spec’ but it does not stretch at least 30 percent without breaking, it is not really mil-spec.

If you weigh 150 pounds and you free fall even 20 feet (not at all unheard of) before the paracord catches you, your 150 pounds will generate about 1,000 pounds of pressure ( 7) on the paracord and it will snap like a twig. Also, paracord stretches further than climbing rope when weight is applied. So the paracord could still be stretching when you hit the ground. This is made by a Certified US Government Contractor, it is 550lb test line with a 7 strand core. 100% nylon and made in the USA.

X-Cords 850 lb Paracord pushes the envelope of what paracord can be and in the process provides you with a way to do your heavy duty projects safely and affordably. While the company’s claim that their 8 strand cord will somehow hold up to 850 pounds has generated more than a little debate, there is no doubt it is the equal of any 750 Type III paracord out there. Paracord can be used to create bracelets– You can’t always tote around a spool of paracord with you everywhere you go. Or can you? Practical-minded individuals have discovered that a bracelet woven out of paracord can be unwound in an emergency situation and used for all of the reasons just stated above. It is not easy for one manufacturer of quality paracord to separate themselves from the others. But Atwood Rope has managed to do it by creating some very unique and satisfying color/pattern combinations for their 550 pound paracord. Those new to paracord might think it looks climbing rope, only thinner. And to an extent they are right. It does look like climbing rope. But inside, it is not like climbing rope. And when you put it to use, you discover it does not act like climbing rope either.

No. A Bug Out Frag has a shell of 550 paracord wound in a way that resembles a hand grenade ( 9). Inside are some survival essentials including a knife, waterproof matches or lighter, a wire saw, whistle and more. Because the Bug Out Frag resembles a hand grenade, TSA will not allow it anywhere near the cabin of an airplane. And that would be true even if it did not contain a knife, incendiaries and more. The Bottom Line While the paracord is not technically ‘mil-spec’ (it would need to have 3 yarns per strand, instead it has 2), it nonetheless adheres to currently accepted industry standards for 550-rated cord. Atwood also uses specially treated UV-resistant nylon in their paracord, and all their products are made in Ohio, USA. FAQs What is Paracord?
