Rubber Rope

[toddm]

My rubber rope on my M35A2 cargo cover is shot. Any ideas where I can get some? I think it was last year someone on this site had extra to sell, should've bought it then. Thanks Todd

$1.00/foot is WAY expensive! I got a 150' roll of 3/8 for less than $30.00

I bought mine at McMaster-Carr. I only bought 50 ft and it wasn't quite enough.

Look on eBay under "rubber rope tie down". 150' for $28.95 + &10.45 S&H. Plus it's made in the USA.

Yup, that's the stuff I bought.

Is that the hollow core 3/8" rubber rope tho on e-bay? I bought a roll of it and it works OK but it is a little to big
around. I wound up punching out the 4 holes at the ends to thread it through. Otherwise it works fine and you
get plenty of it for 2 covers I would guess.

Eriks military has it, I have bought there many times!

Stalwart,

Did the eBay rope work OK for you? Also, the ad states that it is solid core and not hollow.

This looks like the same stuff that Amazon is selling for $45
