Hello does anyone know how to get hold of 3 mm tech cord in the UK? preferably by the meter. I want a 60 m length to use as a rappel pull cord (not to actually rappel on). Thanks.

Will you be able to actually grip and pull 3mm cord? Seems dreadfully thin.

I figure I can always attach it to something if a strong pull is required.

Yep, every flake, bush, nubbin and crystal in the near vicinity and around the ab rope about 50 times as well!

Not used thinner than 5mm myself. It works but is a right pain. I'm guessing that 60m of 3mm is going to be very hard to control even in a light wind. You will need a stuff sack or water bottle to deploy it and make sure the far end is clipped to something at all times.

Anyhow, I hope you find some in the UK, and let us know how it goes. Thanks.
