M-Tac Paracord 550 Type III is a durable nylon cord consisting of a tightly woven outer sheath and a 7-strand inner core. This construction provides excellent strength, low weight, and flexibility, making paracord widely used in military, outdoor, survival, emergency, and daily applications.

The word paracord comes from “parachute cord,” as it was originally used for parachute suspension lines during World War II. Thanks to its versatility, it quickly became popular beyond the military — even NASA astronauts used it during the STS-82 mission for space equipment repairs.
