People demand American-made quality, durability, and strength for their synthetic cord needs. Ultra-Cord is excellent for towing, winch cables, rigging sails, heavy lifting, guy lines, and anything that requires a low-stretch, ultra-strong cord. It’s also an excellent tool to simply store for emergencies in your boat, car or home. Simply put, Ultra-Cord is amazing. Here’s why:

SUPER STRONG – Ultra-Cord is 15 times stronger than steel by weight and so light it floats on water! With an average breaking strength of 5,000lbs at only 3/16″ to 1/4″ diameter, you can feel some comfort knowing your cord won’t break in a bad situation.SAFER THAN STEEL CABLE – TOUGH-GRID Ultra-Cord is a miracle material… it has only about 3% (extremely low) stretch, and therefore stores very little energy. When a steel cable snaps, it can whip around and seriously injure people! Ultra-Cord falls harmlessly to the ground if you can manage to break it… Ultra-Cord has no memory! Steel cords can become permanently curled or bent over time and remain that way forever.GREAT EMERGENCY CORD – Fits in Your EDC, Car, Truck, Tank, Boat, Backpack or Bug-Out Bag! Many People Cut Short Sections and Pre-Seal Ends for Quick Access. Ultra-Cord is made in America by a company that will not compromise on quality. Ultra-Cord is completely workable in extreme cold and wet conditions.PERFECT FOR MAGNET FISHING – With TOUGH-GRID Ultra-Cord, you never have to worry about your line snapping while magnet fishing. It’s never fun to lose an expensive magnet or a heavy haul due to a low-strength cord.

Every Spool of TOUGH-GRID Ultra-Cord Comes With a 1 Foot Section of Double-Walled, Adhesive Mil-Spec Shrink Tubing

KEY PROPERTIES Abrasion Resistance, Chemical Resistance, UV Resistance, Extremely Low (~3%) Stretch, Easily Splice-Able, Braided Construction, Safe Breaking Behavior (Almost No “Memory”), 100% Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) DIAMETER Our Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (Ultra-Cord) is about 3/16″ to 1/4″ in diameter. BREAKING STRENGTH UHMWPE is around 15 times stronger than steel (by weight) and a 3/16″ to 1/4″ diameter braid of UHMWPE has an average break strength of 5,000lbs! You won’t find anything stronger with less stretch. It’s also about 40% stronger than Kevlar (c). STRETCH UHMWPE has very little stretch. Testing shows that it will only elongate about 3%. The reason this is so important is “stored energy”… steel cables and chains store massive amounts of energy and when they break, they can whip around and cause serious and life-threatening injuries. Ultra-Cord (if you can break it!) falls harmlessly to the ground instead of injuring bystanders. TEMPERATURE RESISTANCE UHMWPE has a melting point of around 266°F to 277°F. It is not advisable to use UHMWPE fibers at temperatures exceeding 176°F to 212°F for long periods of time. Ultra-Cord is extremely durable in the cold and only becomes brittle at temperatures below −240°F! LOW MEMORY One of the other great properties of Ultra-Cord is that it has no memory. Steel cable will become curled and kinked over time if wrapped around a drum or stored improperly and that will never happen with Ultra-Cord. SPECIFIC GRAVITY UHMWPE is extremely lightweight. In fact, it’s the only “super fiber” that has a “Specific Gravity” or density below 1.0; meaning it can actually float on water!

PRACTICAL AND FUN – Get the most out of your Ultra-Cord and replace your old steel winch cable! Don’t forget to make sure the drum doesn’t have any steel burrs first. If you’re going to have a winch cable, you may as well make it the best synthetic cord available.

SUPPORT AN AMERICAN COMPANY – TOUGH-GRID is a family owned, American business and we take pride in the fact that our Ultra-Cord is Made in the United States! Do not fall for low-grade foreign imports or imitators. You can’t go wrong with TOUGH-GRID Ultra-Cord.

A Must-Have Item for Any Prepper, Hiker, ATV Rider, Boater, Rock Crawler, Survivalist, or Do-it-Yourselfer!

TOUGH-GRID Ultra-Cord will provide peace of mind. It will bring confidence to your next rock crawling, ATV, or boating trip and many occasions to come.

THE ULTIMATE CORD FOR THE TOUGHEST JOBS ON EARTH” With an average 5,000 pound break strength, this cord is 15 times stronger than traditional steel cable! Need to tow your car or truck out of a ditch? No problem, with Ultra-Cord, it’ll be smooth sailing and you’ll have the confidence to know you’re taken care of. We are now including a FREE 1 foot section of mil-spec, double-walled adhesive shrink tubing with each spool of Ultra-Cord! Compare our Ultra-Cord to Dyneema, Spectra or Amsteel.
SAFER CORDAGE Our Ultra-Cord has extremely low elongation, creep, and stretch. This low stretch means the cord stores less energy under tension, making a broken line much safer than other materials. Other cords, cables, and ropes are like thick rubber bands and when they snap, they can be extremely dangerous! If you manage to break our cord, it will fall safely to the ground without causing harm due to the low stretch and low mass.
ANCHORS AWAY Ultra-Cord is an excellent material to keep on your boat. Whether you’re in a dinghy, keelboat, sport boat, or a yacht, you’ll want to keep several lengths of this cord around. It’s abrasion, UV, and chemical resistant, making it the perfect rope for just about any job! On top of being super-strong, this cord will not kink, curl, burr, splinter or have any sort of memory at all. This cord is even used to tow Gliders to the skies!
ALL-WEATHER CORDAGE Many cords become stiff or brittle when exposed to extremely low temperatures, but Ultra-Cord from TOUGH-GRID remains completely workable in the harshest conditions. Don’t let your environment stop you from having a reliable and workable rope that is stronger than steel!
UNDERSTANDING Ultra-Cord It is extremely strong, durable, abrasion-resistant and light enough to float on water. Colors WILL fade with time and abrasion due to its unique chemistry. This does not compromise the cord, it only affects the color. Ultra-Cord DOES NOT SEAL LIKE PARACORD. The best way to seal the ends is to use 1/4″ – 1/8″ Heat-Shrink Tubing. Slip a section over the end of the cord and use a blow-dryer, lighter, or other heat source to shrink the tubing without melting the cord.
