As i can't say much about but i will give you an idea...... Parachute cord (also
paracord or
550 cord) is a lightweight
nylon kernmantle rope originally used in the suspension lines of US
parachutes during
World War II. Once in the field,
paratroopers found this cord useful for many other tasks. It is now used as a general purpose utility cord by both military personnel and civilians. This versatile cord was even used by
astronauts during
STS-82, the second
Space Shuttle mission to repair the
Hubble Space Telescope.

The
braided sheath has a high number of interwoven strands for its size, giving it a relatively smooth texture. The all nylon construction makes paracord fairly
elastic; depending on the application this can be either an asset or a liability.
