Bungee cord and tensioner

Difference between bungee cord and tie-down strap

A bungee cord is an elastic rope consisting of a rubber core protected by a braided sheath. Its high elasticity allows it to absorb movement while effectively holding objects in place.

A tie-down strap is a fastening device made from a bungee cord, to which hooks, loops, or end fittings are added depending on the intended use. It allows for quick fastening of a tarp, cargo, or equipment without having to tie knots.

Bungee cord: a strong elastic for outdoor use

Bungee cords are designed to withstand the most demanding conditions of use. Depending on the model, their high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polyester, or polypropylene sheath offers excellent resistance to UV, moisture, abrasion, and temperature variations.

This design ensures a long lifespan and reliable use for boating, transport, DIY, and outdoor activities.
