Diamond Grip Black Bungee Cord - 100% Stretch Elastic Cord and Absorbent Bungee Shock Cord for Camping, Kayak Deck, Crafting (1/8" x 10ft)

The 3/16" Sgt Knots bungee cord arrived quickly and in perfect shape. It came in a study bag with a printed label that has all the pertinent information. (I wish the bag had been a reclosable ziplock-style ready for long term organized storage in my tub with rope, cords, bungees, and cables. Not a biggie. I'll use the label on one of my own 4-mil zip bags.) The bungee cord seems to be very good quality. Good stretch and quality feel to the covering. Covering does not unravel when cut, and it's easy to burn-seal the ends after cutting. In the bag, there is a slight odor, but that's to be expected in a 50' coil of a rubber product. In the pieces I've cut, once they've been out of the bag for a short while, it's pretty much undetectable, even indoors. Since I've had this product only a couple days, I can't speak to longevity and durability, but my confidence is up based on what I've seen so far. I've tested for slippage with a few cord locks. In general grip was adequate and about average, definitely better than on the paracord I tried with the same cord locks. (BUT... there is one cord lock I just got that has outstanding grip on this DiamondGrip cord -- the unique-looking Paracord Planet springless double-bow dual hole. Serious grip! https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CT3WRBQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ) I don't know what I was thinking, but I underestimated the thickness of 3/16". I was looking for something to use in my hiking boots and trail running shoes that has firmer stretch than the 1/8" bungee laces kit I've been using. Love the firmness of the 3/16" but, unfortunately, it's too big for the loops and holes in my shoes. No matter, I've got plenty of other uses in mind for 3/16". I've already replaced the drawstring in my Cabelas fleece sweatpants. It's perfect for that. This is good stuff; I recommend it!

I volunteer at a local county park where we store outrigger canoes on a boat rack. Cut a length, tie a knot. Pull it over the boat and it makes a great tie down to hold the boats in place. Used it for two years which included two hurricanes. No problems. Still tight and no deterioration in the Florida sun.

I used this 1/4" shock cord to install two large custom shade cloths (7' x 11' and 20' by 22') over my mother-in-law's Anthurium growing area. The cord is thin but is extremely strong, ties into a nice knot and cuts easily with sharp diagonal cutters. I ran anchors in the wall every 2' to match the grommets in the shade cloth and then ran the cord through each grommet and tied two knots in one end so it wouldn't pull back through. Then each was stretched to the right length and tightness through the anchor, tied off, and trimmed neatly (at the end, once everything was suspended properly). It is easy to untie this cord and go back if adjustments in lengh are needed. With this pro grade cord, the shade cloth is evenly supported and will withstand high winds because it will give as needed and absorb the shock throughout the entire surface area. With the leftover cord, I helped my neighbor secure a new tarp over a 1946 jeep he just bought to restore, knowing that elastic cord does a far superior job than rope when it comes to securing tarps against the wind.

The cord is great. It's the 2nd time I've ordered this product and was very pleased with how well it lasted in the Florida sun and humidity. I had some cord left over from the 50' roll I bought the last time I ordered but I needed "exactly" 10' more. So I placed an order for 10'. Problem is my 10' turned out to be 9' 5" . I know it sounds like I'm knitt picking but in order to complete my project I really needed the 10'. I'm really surprised at this company that they feel they have to short change their customers and inch or two here and there to save a buck or two. If anything I would have expected that they give you an extra inch or two of cord. Like I said the cord works great but was very disappointed with what I received.

I use this cord for tying up cables, holding garbage bags in place, shoelaces. It holds up great and has a rough texture so it doesn’t slide.

I have 3 cars and no garage in South Florida. Two of the cars have car covers to protect them from the sun. The covers have one grommet at the bottom to attach bungee cords to keep the covers tight and secure. I wanted more support so I ordered canvas clips and adjustable hooks that work with bungee cords. The next problem was finding the proper quality and length of bungee which I solved with this product. The 3/8 cord size is excellent for its intended use. To me there are three big advantages to this of product. First, the ability to cut to the right length for the job. The second is the quality of the product and my view is the product is very well made. The third is the ability to order different sizes of cord and different lengths as I generally do not look at projects with a one size fits all mindset. I am almost 70 and learned years ago that the ability to adapt and improvise on problems is a big step forward in overcoming and solving them. Lastly, I am sure I will order bigger sizes and longer lengths in the future as I am already seeing how this could help with other issues when around my property.

Best bungee cord material I have ever seen!. It cost me a small fortune, but after purchasing my first 50' section of 1/2" cord, I ordered, and now have 50' of 1/2", 3/8" & 5/16" cord with crimps. I now make any and all bungee cords at the exact length I need. It's expensive, but with this - You get what you pay for, Would definitely recommend!

Best value for the $$. We have used this bungee for over 3 years ( buy 500 ft spools 3-4x a year ) * holds its elasticity, we use it in saltwater and it's held up perfectly. * has not faded badly from the sun and saltwater * true to size * holds up very well despite it being priced 30-40 % lower than other brands of this same diameter.

Found the material to be of poor quality and expect to have to replace it again within 12 months. Looks lime the cord was already aged and had poor elastic capability.

If you want something that pulls easily, this is not for you. If you want something that is strong and will hold articles in place, this is definitely suitable.

Very good quality stuff, lots of stretch and has lasted a long time outdoors, would buy again in a heartbeat but this stuff doesn’t fail like the others.

this is actually a very good product. i work in oil & gas and I'm hard on everythng! this keeps up and works great

I bought this to hold traps down. Is working okay so far.
