What Is A Bungee Cord?

But moisture can increase the deterioration of a frayed end. So it is necessary to fix the frayed end of your bungee cord in order to extend the lifespan of your bungee cord.
It is best to leave bungee cords in an open, airy environment for drying rather than stacking them up in a closed container.

Are Bungee Cords UV-Resistant?
Yes, bungee cords have a nylon or cotton sheath to protect the inner rubber from UV rays.
The sun rays contain UV light which can cause the inner to get brittle and crack easily.

How Do You Connect Bungee Cords?
Bungee cords are not easy to connect together with simple knots because they are slippery due to rubber, and when they stretch, the knots can loosen easily.
It is best to use carabiner hooks to connect two or more bungee cords strongly.
It is advised not to cut and join bungee cords because the cut ends can be frayed easily and decrease the lifespan of bungee cords.
Using carabiner hooks can save your bungee cord from fraying, and the connection can remain in place without any worry of loosening or breaking.

UV rays can cause the rubber to be brittle and lose its elasticity causing it to break without reaching its full stretching length limit.

How Do Adjustable Bungee Cords Work?

Adjustable bungee cords come for both heavy-duty and light-duty purposes.
Adjustable bungee cords are equipped with special hooks from where you can change the usable length of the bungee cord.
Adjustable hooks come in various designs for different purposes.

Some heavy-duty cords also have a locking clip to secure the excess cord.

What Is The Best Way To Store Bungee Cords?
Storing a bungee cord carefully not only avoids the tangling of cords but also increases the lifespan of cords.

⦁ Fold them in a specific pattern to avoid tangling
⦁ Store them away from direct sunlight

How Do You Keep A Bungee Cord From Fraying?
Fraying is the unravelling of a bungee cord, and it increases at a fast rate leaving your bungee cord useless.

Although when factories manufacture bungee cords, they are not frayed, cord ends weaken and start unravelling over time. Plus, most adjustable bungee cords come with plastic sleeves to prevent fraying.
You can use heat to stop the fraying of your bungee cord quickly. Cut the cord a bit and use fire from a lighter or burner to fix the fraying end.
Also, save your bungee cord from unnecessary moisture and sun rays to lessen the weakening of the cord overtime to delay fraying from happening as long as possible.
Fraying mostly happens in non-sleeve, and adjustable cords where ends are open are prone to damage.
Does The Length Of A Bungee Cord Include The Hooks?
Yes, all bungee cord’s total lengths are measured from the ends of the hooks.
