can I use this to cut and seal the ends of paracord

To be completely honest, I'm not sure. I want to say yes because of the heated razor. HOWEVER, I used the heated razor to cut a different type of cord for one of my craft projects and some of the material that the cord was made of is now melted onto my razor part. So quick answer via what I've done is yes you should be able to cut it, but you might ruin the razor in the process. Normally u can scrape the melted stuff off while it's hot but this stuff on mine is still sticking.

That I'm not sure of because I haven't attempted it myself. As far as cutting no I don't believe that will work, but it would burn it off. As for the sealing bit it might be able to, but I'd suggest watching your settings if you try because if its too high you might just end up burning through it rather then sealing it off.

Tool works well for cutting rope, line, and paracord made from nylon or Dacron. I have plastic funnels which It would cut easily, and then there are others it would not. Your material is the key.

If your bags are wider, you can cut them down and seal the edge. If they are narrower, they are usable. You'll probably only seal one end, and your bags won't go the full width of the sealer. It'll be fine!

I would think that this is not the optimum application for this particular product. I used it on rivets on my aluminum boat and it sealed completely.

I used it to seal a cut in PVC on my water line and it worked fine, so there should be no problem doing a crack.

No. It's intended to be used for straight cuts. You could probably clamp it down and make it work but there are better tools for that.

Melt the ends to seal the cut site. I also melt any holes I punch as well. Woven nylon fibers will always fray.

I definitely would. I've bo bought paracord from different brands and sometimes ended too short. This particular brand I did fine with.

Yes you cut a piece long enough for what you are going to freeze, then you use the seal only setting to seal one end, insert the item and seal and vacuum the other end. Hope that is clear.

Yep. I use them for all sorts of cables, like USB or Ethernet cables behind a desk or in a laptop bag. I often cut the ends down to about 2-3" long. That is still good enough to wrap around 5 loops of cable at least twice. Unless the cable is very this I can cinch them down enough so they don't slide easily on their own, but a drop of superglue might help keep them from sliding at all. Great ties!

im sure you could if you really wanted to, I I have never thought about using this to do so. I would recommend using the seal pup or a deer dressing knife.

Yes, but you want to seal the cut edges with something. Otherwise you will promote Rust to start forming

yes. but you have to buy the end connectors/plugs if you want to cut it into multiple lengths.

You can however I bought a tool specific for this, it seals from both sides at the same time. Worth the money

No. It is just a bit heavier duty than most cables. You can use "normal" ends.

XX should be fine. If it's a little too long you can cut it and sear the the ends.

Probably. I cut 14 gauge galvanized steel wire with it all the time without a problem
