50 Feet 2.0 mm Z-Line Slick Cord

$10.02 ~~$14.95~~ In stock

Used the cord on a section hike on the AT for 5 days To hang my bear bag. Worked fantastically! Much better and lighter than my old parachute cord.

Keep your delicious trail food out of the hands of those hungry bears. This cord is made of solid braided 100% UHMWPE fiber with no sheathe. It is smooth and slick which allows it to slide over branches easier, perfect for bear bagging. This diameter cord is easy to grab a hold of and tangle resistant.

The slick line is not as bright and doesn't grip as well as the sheathed Z-Line, but it is stronger by weight.

I switched from paracord for bear bagging and was surprised how much less bulk this takes up in my pack. The 2.0 mm thickness still held a 10-pound bag without any issue, and the slick coating made knot tying effortless after a long day.

The Z-line slick coating really does make a difference when you're pulling a heavy food bag over a rough branch. At 2.0 mm it's thin enough to coil into a tiny bundle but never slipped or frayed once over five days out. My old parachute cord is staying home from now on.

Tossed a bear bag with this for six nights in the Shenandoahs and the slick coating really does let it slide over branches without snagging. At 2.0 mm it's skinny enough to pack down to nothing, and it held up fine in rain.
