Mero 550 Paracord - 100' 550 lb White

The Mero 550 Paracord - 100' 550 lb White from E.L. Wood Braiding Co. Inc. is a military-grade utility cord engineered for survival, outdoor adventure, and emergency preparedness. This paracord delivers 550 pounds of tensile strength in a lightweight, quick-drying, rot-resistant package that has become the standard across wilderness professionals, tactical operators, and preparedness-minded civilians.

Built with a 7-strand inner core and a 32-strand woven nylon sheath, this paracord combines durability with versatility. The removable core strands can be deployed individually for binding, securing loads, or emergency cordage when the full-diameter rope is unnecessary. The tight weave and commercial-grade construction resist moisture absorption and decay in wet field conditions. The white colorway provides high visibility for search and rescue applications while maintaining the sharp, vibrant appearance expected in tactical and outdoor settings.

This 100-foot length serves multiple roles: shelter construction, load securing, vehicle recovery assistance, and emergency repairs in the field. The 550-pound breaking strength is sufficient for dynamic loads and high-stress tasks without excessive bulk or weight. Ideal for bug-out bags, vehicle kits, climbing applications, and home emergency supplies, this paracord is trusted by outdoor enthusiasts, military personnel, and survival instructors who depend on proven equipment when reliability matters.

550 paracord remains the industry standard for tactical and civilian preparedness because it balances strength, packability, and field-proven performance. This product represents the commercial evolution of the parachute cord originally developed for military airborne operations during World War II—a lineage that speaks to decades of real-world testing and refinement.
