Product Information
Full details
The B2C Elastic Shock Cord Bungee Rope is an essential utility tool designed for DIY enthusiasts, campers, and cargo haulers who require a reliable, high-stretch solution for securing items. Its primary strength lies in its 100% stretch factor and robust abrasion resistance, making it ideal for custom tie-downs and load management; however, users should be aware that as a raw cord, it requires manual knotting or specialized end fittings to create closed loops.

FAQs
Can this cord be used for climbing or safety harnesses?
No. This cord is designed for securing cargo and bundling only. It is not rated for life-safety or weight-bearing applications.
How do I seal the cut ends?
Use a lighter to melt the synthetic woven sheath at the cut end, then compress it slightly to fuse the fibers.
Is this product waterproof?
Yes, the polypropylene material is resistant to moisture and will not rot like natural fibers, making it suitable for outdoor use.
What is the maximum stretch distance?
With a 100% stretch factor, the cord can be stretched to double its original length, though it is best practice to keep it under 50-75% stretch for longevity.
Does this bungee come with hooks?
No, this product is supplied as a raw length of cord, allowing you to customize it for your specific needs.
Troubleshooting
Cord ends fraying after cutting
Use a heat source such as a lighter to melt the polypropylene fibers, sealing the end of the cord.
Knots slipping under tension
Use a double fisherman's knot to ensure the cord remains secure; avoid simple overhand knots which may slide.
Loss of elasticity over time
This is a sign of material fatigue from over-stretching; replace the segment of the cord to ensure load safety.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare the rope for use, cut it to your desired length using a sharp utility knife. To prevent the woven polypropylene sheath from fraying after cutting, lightly sear the ends with a flame or heat tool.
Compatibility: This 6mm cord is compatible with standard bungee hooks and cord locks sized for 6mm diameter materials.
Care Instructions:
- Avoid leaving the cord stretched to its absolute limit for extended periods, as this can fatigue the rubber core.
- Rinse with fresh water if exposed to saltwater or mud to maintain the flexibility of the core.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct, prolonged sunlight when not in use to maintain material integrity.
