SGT KNOTS Marine Grade Bungee Cord - 100% Elastic Cord, Dacron Polyester Bungee Shock Cord for DIY, Tie Downs, Commercial Uses | 1/8" x 100ft, Black

Great service, great product, great price. Since they're trustworthy, I will be experimenting with more of their products. Looks most impressive. Will be testing this more this summer. Thank you!

I am going back for my third 100 foot reel of this cord.The UV resistance has been excellent aboard my sailboat where I use the cord for retention of my flag halyard to the toe rail. This is my most UV exposed application and it has held up very well in weather 24/7/365. Even the color (red) has held up. Very pleased with that compared to other cord I have used.I highly recommend rolling your own bungees (second picture). There are any number of hooks available on Amazon in various configurations. You can deal with almost any bungee related use case if you make your own plus it is way cheaper and way more configurable to your specific needs.I had typically used 3/8" cord and was a little reluctant to go with 1/4" cord (Sgt knots is out of stock on 3/8) but I was very pleasantly surprised with the robustness of the 1/4 inch. No problem for my applications.For example, I decided to make an anchor snubber (first picture) a couple of weeks ago and had a bunch of the 1/4 inch bungee sitting in the garage with nothing to do. Normally a snubber would require two strands of 1/2 or 3/4 bungee to deal with a 7500 pound sailboat with chain rode. I decided to use a big loop of four strands of the 1/4 inch resulting in a combined 8 5 foot strands of bungee to provide about two feet of "spring". This worked perfectly at anchor in up to 20 Kts gusts of wind. So, for you sailors out there, this stuff is the bomb. Good UV performance and quite robust.I checked the stretch factor - there must be a technical name for this - and found the cord would stretch comfortably from four feet at rest to six feet at pretty full stretch. You can do the math to figure out what that means for your application and your cord length. As I mentioned, the "resistance to stretch" ls excellent based upon my experience with my snubber. Again, there is probably a technical term for this too.

Not alot to say about shock cord lol. However this is good quality stuff. Tons of color options. Buy a small roll to have on hand for gear fixes and setting up kit. Million and one uses. 10/10 would buy again.

Ordered the wrong size at first which was on me but this stuff is NICE and I used the other one for a tie for a bungee toy. The second one I got was still a little too big for the cord lock... the wheel part doesn't go in and stay in but it's fine because the cord is thick enough that it holds just fine for what I need. Quality product shipped super fast.

Great shock cord, very strong in 1/4" variety.But I will say that I had to guess what size I needed to restring a zero gravity chair that broke a rope and I couldn't find any helpful info online on what size to replace it with. As you can see here, 1/4" is too big, so if you have the same project, go with the 1/8" and double it like the original black ones on my chair, haha. I stuck with 1/4" singled since I already have it and didn't want to wait for more; sitting in the chair while writing this, it is quite a bit firmer now than with the original shock cord but still comfortable.
