This listing is for 100' (30m) of Military Grade Nylon Parachute Cord with a minimum break strength of 750 lbs, orange color.
It was purchased from 5col, but it was never used, not even unwrapped!
5col Survival Supply Parachute Cord is nylon cord with 11 core strands. The specification mandates that true MIL-C-5040H Type 4 cord have 11 core strands. Each core strand in 5col's paracord is 3-ply. One of these strands is the designated marker strand, with a different color yarn. This marker strand acts as an identifier for military parachute riggers. Should one of the parachute lines fail, the riggers will know which factory it came from.
This type of paracord is tested up to 750 lbs, unlike the more common 550 paracord. 5col Survival Supply only sells paracord made in the USA by a factory that supplies nylon cord and parachutes to the United States Military. Factories supplying nylon parachute cord to the US Military are required to undergo periodic inspections to ensure product quality. Every day American soldiers trust their lives to this paracord, and that means that you can too.
