Deimian 43 #2 September 20, 2021 I believe most webbing work is sewed with size 5 and 6 nylon cord. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi kmzamani, As Deimian said, it is usually #5 cord nylon thread. For smaller quantities, try here: Small Quantity Military and Sport Parachute Hardware – Fort Smith, Arkansas – D.J. Associates.

gowlerk 2,218 #4 September 22, 2021 (edited) In rigging we call it 5 cord, just as we call size 69, tex 70, "E" thread. That is because the US military called it that. To the rest of the world it is size 346 or TEX 350 nylon bonded thread. https://www.thethreadexchange.com/miva/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=nylon-thread-346 Edited September 22, 2021 by gowlerk 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
