Most paracord, including virtually everything else offered by this seller, is ~3/8" diameter, yet the description here says 1/8". Is this a typo?

The specs on 550 paracord is closer to 3/16". I think the technical specs for 550 paracord are 4.3 mm or 0.169". This is very close to a standard size paracord, but may be a tiny bit thicker than china made paracord. It is not 3/8"

It's either a typo or someone was heavy handed with a pair of calipers for measurement. I've ordered 100' sections to 1000' spools from them and everything has been exactly what I expected. 3/8 sounds a little big for a measurement to me but I haven't ever actually checked the diameter. Either way it's the same diameter as all other 550 paracord I've worked with and seemed better quality than some others I've found.

I believe that the 3/8 is usually the buckle size used. There is a size difference in 550 & 450 paracord!!

Yes 1/4" and 3/8" refers to hose size not connector. Larger hose just flows air better. I actually have both and it works well with either one. But I am not a contractor doing speed work. Your compressors ability to keep up will be more noticeable than hose size.

I use my paracord in small amounts and could not say for sure that it is one continuous piece.I have to say that I did assume that it was continuous spool when I purchased it.

The webbing I am using actually measures 1 3/8 inches and the connection hardware measures 1 inch. Hope this helps. If not give me another holler....glad to assist!RBW

It's the chain thickness. 1/8 is slightly thicker than 3/32. You can use 1/8 chains with 3/32 cogs, but not the other way around.

Thinking paracord as one and three quarter inch wide this one is one and one half inches wide and sadly the cap that screwed on the buckle to hide small fishing line or whatever popped off I don't know where. The inner pouch for a few dollar bills is nice though. Mike

I have a roll of this wire. When put up next to a tape measure, it looks to be about as close to 1/16" as possible (about 1.5 millimeters). David VA

This one was 1 3/8" long, but I'm pretty sure that they make them 1 3/4" as well. I think when we bought these, we debated about the longer one.

It's 3/8". The gun is a good starter, but the catch for the cord sucks. Constantly comes loose and gets caught on things. Especially when scuba diving.

I used a digital vernier on 4 random pieces and got 0.22-0.23 in i.d. or 5.7-5.8 mm i.d., Atlantco "7-strand" 550 paracord is roughly 0.15 in o.d. or 3.8 mm o.d. for example (compresses too easily to get a vernier on) so regulation paracord easily passses thru the holes.

The one I ordered seemed 100%. The only thing was the "550" paracord wasn't "550". I love my Becker & the sheath is extremely well made.

i've ordered two 1000' black paracords. I've received two different types of 1000' black paracord. One roll is with 7 white strands, the other has 7 white strands and 1 orange. What I use this for is to make flask carriers. My preference is the "7/1". I would like to request an order for the "Commercial Black 1000' " roll. Is there any chance when I order this, my request will be honored? It works better with the commercial grade when tying the knots (smaller).

It's pretty thin, about an inch wide without the paracord. I ended up just making a wooden handle for it. It has 2 holes in the tang, so you won't have to drill them out yourself.

I used 3/8" but I am certain it will accept 1/2". These things are pretty sturdy - I was using them as force mulitpliers to pull down a tree and they did not pose any problems. My "pulley" background includes sailing tackle, and while they're not like a $100 main sheet pulley, they're pretty fn good

I just purchased one along with a 100' spool of 750 paracord. The 750 paracord would not fit in the slots. I had to tie it off using the larger hole on the end of the tool located on the same side as the cutter. I was disappointed but still glad to have an all in one tool to organize and cut my paracord. Hopefully, they will design one specifically for the 750 paracord in the future.

Just got this in the mail... outer diameter measures approx 3 1/4". The outer 3/8" is the flexible part. I tried to upload some pics but cant seem to figure out how.
