About this item

  • 100% UHMWPE Micro Cord with endless uses for outdoor applications. 0.8mm and 1.0mm diameter, hollow braid, yielding high strength, with self-lubricating smooth surface and unbeatable abrasion resistance, UHMWPE Micro Cords excels most as whipping twine to bind rope ends and spliced eyes for extra security; durable stitching cord for webbings; tough sewing thread and repair cord for heavy canvas, tarps, backpacks, load-bearing equipment; Emergency fishing line and utility cords outdoors.
  • Best cords for anywhere extra protection from abrasion is required. UHMWPE is highly resistant to abrasion and wears, largely extending the abrading period when compared to nylon and polyester. Go for UHMWPE micro cords as whipping twine or repair cords when your ropes or load-bearing equipment tend to abrade quickly due to intense rubs against woods and rocks.
  • GO LIGHTER! 15 times stronger than steel wire on strength to weight basis, made of 100% UHMWPE (also known as different trade names, Dyneema, Spectra by different manufacturers), the micro cords are much less bulky and lighter than most other utility cords while delivering higher strength. The exceptional string helps you GO LIGHTER outdoors without compromising strength and performance.
  • UV RESISTANT! UHMWPE retains its super performance after long-term exposure to UV. Extremely high resistance to UV, enhanced by PU coating over the cords, superior to Aramid (Kevlar, Technora, Twaron) and to most high-tech fibers.Qualified for most outdoor applications, especially as the best repair cords for marine uses.
  • The most loved stunt kite line as it is, with <1% stretch at working load, UHMWPE micro cords are of the least stretch for receiving quick responses from kites and resist deformation under load for longer service life. Property of zero water absorption helps survive its unbeatable quality through the damp environment (kite flying at the beach). Self-lubricating smooth surface lets cord less prone to tangle, and makes sewing and stitching a snap.

0.8mm cord

15x Stronger than Steel

UHMWPE Cords yield extremely high strength (15x stronger than steel by weight ratio) in a compact size and lightweight. Compared to utility cords or mil-spec paracords made of nylon/polyester, UHMWPE cords are much lighter and far less bulky, convenient for outdoor carry, and easy storage with spools.

MICRO CORD

Unbeatable Durability

As high-tech performance cords, UHMWPE has unbeatable durability in excellent resistance to UV, chemicals, abrasion (comparable to Kevlar), almost no absorption to water, advanced cords for both home and outdoor uses, superior substitutes to steel wires, especially in water use.

No Creep

Being of very low stretch, and highly resistant to creep, to flex-fatigue, UHMWPE cords have a better tendency to keep strength and retain shapes under loading. Fast to deliver responses from kites for better controlling and performing actions. Longer service life, and much reducing replacement frequency for your most works.

micro cord

8- or 12-strand Braid

Of 8 or 12 strands hollow braid, and inherently self-lubricating, MICRO cords are easy to use and made to suit most hardwares.

MYOG - MAKE YOUR OWN

Endless Outdoor Uses

UHMWPE/HMPE, Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene, known as different trade names as Dyneema, Spectra by different manufacturers)

Due to its high durability and unbeatable resistance to abrasion, UV, chemicals, UHMWPE provides endless solutions in outdoor applications, especially in marine uses.

Available in 0.8mm, 1.0mm diameter for uses in:

  • Whipping twine: whip around rope ends to prevent natural fraying; Lock spliced eyes for extra security;
  • Durable stitching thread: especially for MYOG webbing products;
  • Sewing thread and repair cord: for heavy canvas, tarps, backpacks, load-bearing equipment;
  • Emergency fishing line and utility cords outdoors.
whipping twine

How to seal the end?

  • Heat cut the cord and the end will self-sealed.
  • Use whipping twine to whip the cord/rope ends or spliced eye for extra security.

About Color Fastness

  • UHMWPE fibers don't take dye very well, and it’s normal that the color will fade after exposure to water, frictions, and handlings overuse.
  • HMPE CORDs keep high performance that won’t be influenced by color fading.

On Spool

  • Easy storage
  • Fast to deploy in use

Working Load Limit (WLL) = 20% of Tensile Strength, for the longevity of the cord and safe uses

Tensile Strength

Also known as the labeled strength, is the average testing strength at which the new and unused cord would break when tested in laboratory condition in accordance with Cordage Institute Standard Test Methods. The load, applied in parallel to the cord, slowly increases until the cord breaks.

Working Load Limit (WLL)

In practical uses, various factors would impact or reduce the strength of any rope/cord, including knots in the rope, abrasion, humidity, UV, former use and care, etc. To assure safe uses, it's indispensable to adopt a safety margin in the cord/rope strength, which leads to Working Load Limit (WLL).

The Working Load Limit (WLL) is determined by dividing the tensile strength by a safety factor. To assure the longevity of the cord and maintain a comfortable margin for safe uses, a 5:1 safety factor (20% of the tensile strength) is adopted and recommended for emma kites UHMWPE cord for general applications.

I've used these to separate glass that was glued to a frame. I'd bet they will work great for windshields too. I'm also using them for lanyards for my pocket flashlight and probably other things soon. When stressed, the black color seems to turn slightly white, but still holding strong for multiple repeated uses. Would buy again and likely try a thinner version later too.

I purchase several things on Amazon and was giving pretty in-depth reviews. From this point on, here's the new agenda…. if it works as advertised, is well made, meets or exceeds the description, is a value, and arrives in a fair amount of time, it will get a "star rating" equal to what my expectations were/are. If it doesn't meet these criteria, then I will most definitely and descriptively tell the short comings of the products and you as a consumer will not have to go through the trouble of buying the product without some background knowledge. If the sell pulls that item and relists under another description, I will put the exact same review on the seller's feedback page. Sellers have done this a couple of times in the past, and I was true to my word then as well as now. DR

This cord seems strong and it is very lightweight. I bought it to make tarp guylines, but it was too thin to splice.

If you need whipping twine that absolutely, positively won't break, this is it! Small enough to sew through your lines and wicked strong!

Unlike the curved plastic ball thrower we are all familiar with, a Shepherds Sling is both acurate and makes for some long throws. This cord makes a strong lightweight sling that I store in my wallet. The cord is easily spliced so no obvios knots visible. Everyone at the dog park wants mine so I have ended up making many of them. This is my second spool.

Backpackers!!! Great cord for UL bear bag hanging. Highly visible for its size, very strong, and most importantly it's slick so slides over tree limbs easily. Be careful what size you purchase. Smaller diameters cut into tree limbs when a heavy weight is on the business end.Not good for tying hitches- like tautline hitch, but that's not what it's designed for
