- HIGH TENSILE STRENGTH: 600lb Strong and light: weight for weight, Technora is 8 times stronger than steel and 3 times stronger than fiberglass, polyester or nylon yarns.
- FATIGUE RESISTANCE: Shows little loss of strength even during repeated abrasion, flexing and stretching
- DIMENSIONAL STABILITY: Stiff and highly oriented molecular structure leads to a high modulus of elasticity, low creep and low stress relaxation. Low thermal shrinkage
- HEAT RESISTANCE: Thermal decomposition threshold of 930F, so Technora can be used at 392F for long periods. At 482F, it maintains more than half of its room-temperature tensile strength
- CHEMICAL RESISTANCE: Highly resistant to acids, alkalis and organic solvents; not vulnerable to damage caused by steam or sea water
The 100ft Technora Survival Cord by ASR Outdoor is an essential item to bring with you on any outdoor trip.
It is essentially the same as the Technora Survival Cord, but woven thicker to make it even stronger. While it is quite thin with a diameter of only .08", it has a breaking strength of 600 lbs. This cord is made of Technora, which is an abrasion-resistant, low stretch, high strength material.
It also has a PTFE (Teflon) coating, which increases the abrasion resistance and adds UV protection. It weighs less than 2 ounces and takes up little space, so it is a must-have for your survival kit.
