I have read that it is rated at 200lbs.
But I have broken full 550 cord with 200lbs. |

I'm not an expert on 550 but climbing rope strength is all in the "core" so if you remove that you basically just have the stuff that was acting as a protectant for the strength of the rope.

Not surprising, and why it is important to understand the difference between breaking strength and working strength. Breaking strength is truly rated under ideal conditions. Put a knot in the rope? Breaks at lower strength. And of course shock loads add another level of problems. |
