Paracord Micro

How to choose the right micro cord for your project?

We offer 3 types of micro cord with a thickness ranging between 1 mm and 2 mm. All cords have their own unique specifications (material, thickness, handfeel, braiding etc.) With the help of this table and picture you can choose the right micro cord for your project. The ammount of strands indicates how many yarn bundles are plaited or twisted together to form a cord. In general more strands will result in a smooter surface.
