Is this cord stretchy at all?

Depends on your overal length being used. Under weight, 550 paracord can stretch 1" per foot...slightly more if wet.

Yes, it does stretch, but not like a bungee cord. If you need low/no stretch try Amsteel.

Yes. It's a stretchable stainless steel clad hose that can stretch at least six feet.

I don't think so. I have noticed it does seem to stretch after a lot of uses. But if you wash & dry it, It tightens again.

No, is made of nylon material and has no stretch ability. I like it this way so I can control the pull.

That is it's length out of the box, it doesn't stretch. This is a nice hose for a hand held.

It does stretch quite a bit. What I did was shorten the rope ends. They are tied on with simple knots. This will be my first full summer with it like this so I don't know how long it will last like this.

It has some give to it, but it doesn't have any elastic. So not really stretchy.

It appears to made of strong cord that is slightly stretchable, could be a synthetic material that is strong. It is not rope strands and stands up well in weather. I have installed outside as a basketball court net to keep the ball from bounding out of the court. I have had no problem with it breaking or over-stretching.

The cord is approximately 30" in length (without "pulling" on the coil). If you "pull" to extend the cord, it will stretch to a "comfortable" length of 45".

I have only used one season and I was in Hawaii. I didn't notice any stretching. I will use this season and let you know.

I've used the cord in sub freezing weather. It does become more rigid in cold temps. It's still pliable for rolling up or stretching out straight.

I've ordered and use 3/16, 1/4, & 5/16, and am beyond happy with all of them. 6" stretch on 24" cord is OK, not bad. You may be expecting more than this is designed to do? Sorry I couldn't help you any more, I am happy with all of these. Ken Hockin, Alvin, Texas

It measures 4 1/2 inches, including the plug. Without the plug, 4 inches. It does NOT stretch at all.

Mine is stretched out over 16' but I do not believe you will have an issue? If so, simply shorten the cord as Dennis said in an earlier reply. You will do great. Great Shopper!

It is very thin cord, so a little knot isn't noticeable. I've also used a little super glue and rolled the end to a point, if I need to avoid a knot.

No, there is no stretch. It's a static and strong tow strap. But all material has its breaking point. I've pulled cars up hills with it.
