Zoro Select Twine 5/64 in Diameter
This Zoro Select twine is a general-purpose cord supplied on a spool for tying, bundling or light securing tasks. The twisted three-strand cotton construction has a 5/64 inch diameter and a total length of 300 feet. It is rated with a working load limit of 20 lb and a breaking strength of 108 lbf, making it suitable for workshop, garden or packaging use where heavy lifting is not required.
Hollow Core Cotton Construction
The hollow-core, twisted cotton design keeps the line flexible and easy to knot by hand without stiffening over time. Because the core strand count is zero, the twine compresses slightly under tension, helping knots hold securely on irregular surfaces. The plain-cut ends allow the user to trim the exact length needed from the 300 ft spool without fraying beyond the cut point.
Not For Lifting Applications
This product is explicitly marked as not for lifting, so it must not be used to hoist, suspend or support any load overhead. Buyers who need a line rated for lifting people or equipment should select a rope with a certified lifting capability and appropriate safety factor. Check that the 20 lb working load limit covers the maximum tension your specific bundling or tying task will place on the twine.

Questions about this item
How often will the 3-strand cotton twine on the 300 ft spool need replacing if used near its 20 lb working load limit?
Cotton twine degrades with moisture and UV exposure; inspect the 5/64 in diameter line regularly and retire it once fibres show fraying or stiffness.
What limit appears first when the 5/64 in twine is tensioned continuously at its 20 lb working load?
The 20 lb working load limit is reached well before the 108 lbf breaking strength, so sustained tension must stay at or below 20 lb.
Does the hollow-core cotton twine generate noticeable heat or noise when run all day under load?
No — the twisted cotton construction has no moving parts, produces no audible noise and negligible heat during continuous use.
