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!!

Nylon which is not real 550 Paracord, which is a true Mil Spec item and is a far superior cord, but most of the stuff you see marked as 550 Paracord is counterfeit stuff produced in China. But you can rewrap with the real stuff, or (better) just put a longer (and much more useful) piece of the real stuff in your bag for when you need it.

I believe this is a typo on Amazon's page. Manufacturer's website shows 3 5/8" bolt circle.

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.

If I measured correctly, it is 3/8ths of an inch. If I measured incorrectly, I'd say it is 1/4 inch. [Wow, I just looked at another answer, and it measured much larger than I did. Mine is from the wall to the outside of the plug, but does not include the slight hump where the actual cord comes off the plug. Still, I measure no more than 1/2".]

I would say it's in between. Very good quality, easy to work with and most important to anyone crafting with Paracord, it splices very good. I have never had any problems with Paracord Planet cord.

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.

These are NOT 3/4" barb fittings, as I thought. the size is 5/8. this is 1/8" smaller than 3/4" for those who don't like math.

Well from my experience Paracord either comes as Nylon Paracord or Polyester Paracord. They have the same "Break" strength but nylon is a bit more flexible and costs more. So to answer your question....Yes it is wrapped in paracord, I just don't know what material.

Easy to pick up from a hardware store. I think it's 3/8" but compare to a section of your existing cord when buying and check the WLL of the new cord.

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

If your talking about the tip, I would say it is 1/8 inch I use it for very fine detail work .

Sorry - I can't honestly say. The packaging (whats left of it) gives diameter but no length. I am on the second of three spools and can say that I consider it a good value. Sorry that I couldn't be more help.

Just measured it with my trusty tape measure. 4 and 3/4 inches long and 1 inch in diameter.And you are right it is NOT 8.9 inches long as stated on the Amazon site.

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.

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.
