Wow, someone's selling 3.5mm on fleabay. They claim strength isn't compromised.

Wow. Can you put a link up, I thought that was still in top secret military testing.

 

[JAG009]

Obviously, the 3.6 is considerably (0.1mm) thinner, and I think you lose about 0.0005KN in breaking strain. .

Ah but is it the same when wet ,and knot strenth has to be looked at in detail

Yeah, you can only get it from the states though. Group buy?

It only glows for NVG's. It's hyper tactically aware.

I've heard a whisper the SAS have started using 2.5mm paracord made with kevlar, bulletproof so they dont get their bashas shot down in battle. Thats hush hush though.

 

[Bushwhacker]

Just found some 6mm at the car boot. It's well old, much better than that modern stuff.

No it's from the 80s I have some retro stuff with a Ventile sheath and raw hide inner strands.

Does it come with an inner core ,and what colours does it come in

 

[hobbes]

Does it come with an inner core ?

No, that's sash cord you idiot... which, as anyone knows, is jute.

Anyway, 36mm paracord is just the old 1/7th inch stuff which, since Imperial was banned, is being phased out in favour of 37mm, which works better in continental Europe.

Am the idiot every one knows that the 36mm stuff is for tying up ships

 

[hobbes]
