What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing is inconsistent about classification and construction: the title identifies Type III, while a feature calls it Type IV and describes seven triple strands. It also labels 550 pounds as strength without clarifying a working-load limit. Confirm the selected listing's cord specification and intended load use before relying on those details.

Who is it for?

A good fit for

  • Campers and hikers seeking a 100-foot cord for tent or tarp tie-outs and securing gear.
  • Crafters making bracelets, lanyards or gear ties.
  • People assembling a general-purpose emergency or survival kit.

Less suited to

  • Buyers who need a clearly stated working-load rating for a safety-critical or load-bearing application.
  • Buyers who require unambiguous confirmation of cord construction or military specification before purchase.

Customer feedback is largely favorable about perceived quality, USA origin, versatility and the stated 550-pound strength. Reported examples include boot laces and awning guy lines, which are consistent with the listing's general utility uses. These impressions do not resolve the conflicting Type III and Type IV descriptions or establish a safe working-load limit, so buyers needing precise construction or load specifications should verify them.

Positive themes

  • Customer feedback praises the perceived quality and says the cord performs as expected.
  • Feedback describes practical uses including boot laces and awning guy lines.
  • Customers reportedly appreciate the USA-made origin, versatility and listed 550-pound strength.

Frequently asked questions

How long is this paracord?

The listing specifies 100 feet.

What material and color are listed?

The listed material is nylon and the color is Forest Camo.

Is the cord specified as Type III or Type IV?

The title says Type III, but a feature description calls it Type IV and mentions seven triple strands. The listing is contradictory, so confirm the specification for the selected item.

Can the listed 550-pound strength be treated as a working-load limit?

The listing gives 550-pound strength figures but does not clarify a working-load limit. Do not assume that figure is a safe working load.
