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!

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.

The SGT KNOTS Shorck Cord 1/8" - 100 Feet (OD Green) is an excellent choice for light to medium duty cordage needs, and a good value. It stretches approximately 100% of its length (i.e., a 6-inch piece will stretch to about 12 inches), which I consider ideal. I use this cordage to stake out corners of a tarp. I carry four loops with me in my pack, each made from a 36" length of this shock cord tied in a knot to make the loop, and weighing about 6 grams per loop (24 grams total for the four loops). In light winds, I run the loops through the lower tie outs of my tarp, making it easy to stake it out snugly, but providing plenty of flex to reduce strain on the tarp and to take up any slack (i.e., eliminate sagging) if the tarp fabric stretches a bit in the weather. In heavier winds, I double each loop so that instead of two strands of 1/8" shock cord at each tie out, I have four strands, which doubles the tension and seems adequately durable.Also nice about 1/8" cordage is the ease of tying knots. It's lighter and less bulky than the more common 1/4" diameter shock cord, and if more strength is needed, it can be looped or double looped as I mentioned above. So I think it's ideal for hiking/camping/bushcraft purposes. Also, the green color is nice: fairly dark and "wilderness" friendly if you prefer to blend in, rather than stick out with brightly colored gear.If there's a downside, some people may not like the rubber core, which does not melt well to fuse the ends with the sheath. In practice, I've found that just melting the sheath and tying off the end in a knot (to make the loops I mentioned above) seems plenty adequate to prevent fraying, so I think it's fine.What more can I say? If you're looking for good 1/8" shock cord, this is a good choice and made in the USA.

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.

Very happy with this bungee cord. We ordered the black 1/4" size and it is well made and fits the 1/4" clips and end pieces we have. Have pull-tested this cord after hot cutting it and securing the finishing ends, but it has not been put into fulltime use yet. Followed instructions for taping the cord off before hot-knife cutting it to length and this worked well for us. Highly recommend this product.

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.

Excellent quality!

Easy to use! Restrung our two lounge chairs. Putting new life back into chairs. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS!!!!
