Features & Specifications of Bungee Cord
Suited to a variety of uses, we supply bungee cord materials with various features and specifications. Each option offers benefits to different bungee cord applications and projects based on material characteristics, including resistance factors, strength, durability, and stretch. We carry cotton, nylon, polyester, and polypropylene bungee cord:Cotton Bungee Cord: Bungee cord made with cotton materials is eco-friendly. They offer decent tensile strength, but their natural fibers are more susceptible to wear and tear than synthetic options. Cotton bungee cords have low elasticity and a comfortable grip for light-duty and indoor applications where the cord is not exposed to harsh elements.
Nylon Bungee Cord: Nylon material options for bungee cords offer high strength and elasticity in various applications. These nylon cords will feature abrasion and water resistance, suitable for continuous use in rugged and moist conditions, but are sensitive to UV exposure over long periods of time. Outdoor activities, heavy-duty securing applications, and industrial uses commonly use nylon bungee cords.
Polyester Bungee Cord: Another synthetic material option, polyester bungee cords offer high strength and durability, exceptional resistance characteristics, and a low stretch. This bungee cord material resists UV, weather, and chemicals while displaying low moisture absorption. It also features less elasticity for a more controlled level of tension in shipping and industrial uses, outdoor equipment applications, and tarping and covering.
Polypropylene Bungee Cord: Lighter than other bungee cord materials, polypropylene bungee cord has a lower strength and moderate stretch for light to medium-duty tasks. It has water resistance, making it suitable for outdoor and marine applications, but it is sensitive to UV degradation. Polypropylene bungee cords are also more budget-conscious than some other bungee cord materials.
It’s essential to assess the needs of your application when choosing a suitable bungee cord material. We offer a diverse range of bungee cord material options to match your specifications in various projects.
