TECEUM 5/32" Paracord Rope 1000 – 1000ft / 200ft / 100ft / 50ft – Tactical Parachute Cord 4mm – 45+ Colors – Nylon String for Survival & Camping Gear – Stripe Cord for Survival – Utility Rope

Teceum is the first brand of paracord that I ever purchased, and even though I've purchased other brands of paracord since and even liked some of them a bit better, it still represents one of the best values of a quality commercial paracord that I've seen. Teceum advertises their paracord as being manufactured to Mil-Spec standards, and they do follow some of the specifications laid out in the MIL-C-5040H documentation. Their paracord contains 7 nylon yarns in its core, and each core yarn consists of 3 strands. There is one obvious specification in the MIL-C-5040H documentation that they don't meet, though, and that is that there is no colored manufacturer's ID strand in their paracord. Also, I noticed that Teceum doesn't specify the material used in the outer sheath of their paracord in either the Amazon listing or their packaging, and I suspect that they use polyester sheaths in at least some of their offered colors, which would also not meet the MIL-C-5040H documentation standards. At the end of the day, though, the Teceum paracord is a quality product. I've deconstructed pieces of it side-by-side with a few other brands of paracord that I've bought, and of all of them that I've looked at, Teceum has the thickest core yarns. Although I don't have the capacity or knowledge to do accurate direct side-by-side strength testing, this does imply that strength shouldn't be a problem with this particular brand of paracord. I primarily use paracord to tie knife lanyards, and I've bought several colors of the Teceum paracord to match the different colors of knives that I've tied it on. My favorite color overall has been the basalt. It's not as dark as the pictures in the listing show, but it is a nice gunmetal gray color that catches bright light nicely with a metallic sheen. Update: Upon further inspection, I've noticed that the core yarns in the Teceum paracord aren't actually thicker than in other brands. They are just not wound as tightly. If I manually wind them to be as tight as the core yarns in other brands, the thickness appears to be the same. So there actually seems to be less material per inch in the core yarns of Teceum paracord, which suggests to me that it probably isn't as strong as paracords with more tightly wound core yarns.

This is very durable, lightweight, and strong cord. I use it for everything. I can pull it very tight and it won't break even under heavy weight. 100 ft roll is just right for projects around the house and yard. It would be great for a clothesline. I used it to hang some heavy party lights attached to my boat dock from the house. I like the black cord because it holds up under sunlight. It comes in different lengths.

Inexpensive and quality paracord. I used it to attach a buoy to a minnow trap and has worked well. All purpose and seems to be strong.

Used this paracord to create "bird scares" on some of our windows (to prevent bird strikes--Google Acopian Bird Savers for info on how to make your own). This is an excellent quality cord -- easy to cut and melt the ends to prevent fraying. The color is perfect to blend in and after awhile we don't even notice them on the exterior of our windows. We love our visiting birds! Have not had a single bird strike since we installed them in autumn prior to the busy migration period. I love the various options for color, thickness and length. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Love the TECEUM cord colors and feel, but the mantle has so much stretch. I'll cut about a 6' strand and then have to cut a couple inches of sheath off right after. Other than that, length/thickness are as described, quality is good. Good cord for the money.

Well packed, arrived safely. Quality is very very nice, the presentation is very very nice as well. This paracords thickness, stiffness, are great, the knots hold in place well. Feels very very sturdy. Definitely recommend and Definitely will purchase more from seller.

I found the product easy to handle and effective. I have yet to put 500 lb of pressure on it but I feel sure that it will hold.

We use a lot of paracord for different outdoor activities. This paracord appears to be of good quality, with superior knot strength. I purchased the black color and you can visibly see the white strands inside the sheath. Overall stiffness is variable after use but I woudl say a good quality paracord for the price.
