Article Category: Sports

Author Name: Art Saborio

The 550 Paracord is a variant of nylon that has 7 inner yarns made up of 3 strands each. The name was derived from the cord used for parachutes during the World War II, and it can sustain up to 550 pounds, thus where it got the name.

Before, the 550 Paracord was only used for military purposes. Now, its versatility and strength has become a favorite device among civilians too. And with the rise in availability, it can be hard to tell the genuine one from the substandard.

Authentic 550 Paracord are called MIL grade (Military grade), it has passed the quality test set by the US Military. One of the finest quality available is the Mil-C-5040h Type III Paracord. Only a few company produces this for the US government.

It can be a bit tricky on how to spot genuine one from commercially produced. Though most of the commercially made 550 Paracord are at par with authentic ones. If you cut the commercial cords, it often consists of 7-9 inner yarns with only 2 strands each. It is often slimmer than the required 1/8 inch thickness. It is also smoother in texture and flows more freely.

Most commercially-made paracord are available in variety of colors including pink.

Some users and buyers said that commercially-produced paracord is a quality product too that can withstand heavy weight. It is a bit cheaper than genuine paracord.
