FAQs

What is the Safe Working Load (SWL) of these bungee cords?

The Safe Working Load for each TIMCO Bungee Cord is 30kg.

Are these bungee cords suitable for securing heavy items?

No, these cords are designed for light loads only. For heavy items, a different type of securing solution should be used.

What does 'BS AU 258:1995 Approval' mean?

This approval signifies that the bungee cords meet the British Standards for general-purpose elasticated cords used in certain applications, indicating a level of quality and safety.

How long are the bungee cords?

Each bungee cord is 100cm (1000mm) in length.

What is the diameter of the bungee cords?

The diameter of these bungee cords is 8.0mm.

Can I use these bungee cords outdoors?

Yes, they can be used outdoors, but prolonged exposure to direct sunlight (UV rays) and extreme weather conditions may degrade the material over time. Storing them indoors when not in use will extend their lifespan.

How should I clean the bungee cords?

Clean them with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the material.

Troubleshooting

Bungee cord not holding tension

Check if the cord is stretched beyond its intended capacity or if the anchor points are slipping. Ensure the load is not too heavy for the 30kg SWL.

Cord appears worn or damaged

Discontinue use immediately. Damaged bungee cords can fail unexpectedly. Replace with a new cord.

Difficulty hooking ends

Ensure anchor points are suitable. If the cord is too short for the application, consider a longer bungee cord. Avoid forcing the hook.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Quick and easy to use for temporary securing.
  • Approved to a recognized safety standard (BS AU 258:1995).
  • Suitable length for many common applications.
  • Good value as a pack of two.
  • Durable construction for light-duty tasks.

Cons

  • Not suitable for heavy or critical loads due to SWL.
  • Can degrade over time with prolonged exposure to UV or extreme temperatures.
  • May not provide sufficient tension for very large or irregularly shaped items.
  • Potential for recoil if fasteners are released under tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify secure anchor points for each end of the bungee cord.
  2. Hook one end of the bungee cord firmly onto an anchor point.
  3. Stretch the cord to the desired tension, avoiding overstretching.
  4. Hook the other end of the cord onto the second anchor point.

Compatibility:

These bungee cords are compatible with a wide range of anchor points, including:

  • Racks (bicycle, roof, trailer)
  • Hooks
  • Handles
  • Tie-down points
  • Strong structural elements on vehicles or furniture.

Ensure anchor points are sturdy and can withstand the tension applied.

Care:

  • Inspect cords regularly for signs of wear, such as cuts, fraying, or loss of elasticity.
  • Clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or solvents.
  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use to prolong their lifespan.
  • Do not use if damaged or if the elasticity has significantly diminished.
