Mero 550 Paracord - 100' 550 lb Blue Snake Camo

The Mero 550 Paracord in 100-foot Blue Snake Camo is a military-specification cordage designed for survival, emergency preparedness, and tactical field applications. This paracord delivers the 550-pound breaking strength that makes it the standard for load-bearing tasks in wilderness, climbing, and gear rigging scenarios. Built by E.L. Wood Braiding Co. Inc., it combines proven durability with modern manufacturing quality.

The construction mirrors the original parachute cord specification developed for WW2 military operations. The 7-strand inner core can be extracted and deployed independently for tasks requiring lighter cordage in survival situations, such as shelter construction and gear attachment. The outer sheath is designed to provide UV and rot resistance, essential for extended outdoor exposure.

This paracord serves outdoor enthusiasts, preppers, tactical operators, and anyone maintaining emergency supply kits. It integrates seamlessly into go-bags, vehicle emergency kits, climbing systems, and wilderness shelters. At 0.53 pounds, the 100-foot coil balances carrying weight with practical deployment length for both everyday carry and emergency cache applications.
