Diamond boots laces with lock laces (amazon) I haven't broken a lace or tied up my boots in 5 YEARS!
Steve’s gone into the Pimping business!!😂😂
I will be replacing my emergency boat motor rope with ole Diamond gurl..
Glad to see you devoting time to spend with us, Steve! Congrats on the career move! Love your channel. Be well, bud!
Thanks 👍
Excellent information especially the tip on how not to damage the spring!!!! Thanks Steve !!!
You're Welcome...
You are the best. I wish I knew about this when I was snow mobile Riding in the 1970s when the rope would break all the time in the middle of winter. I would freeze trying to fix it
Thanks for not quitting completely , Steve . I’m an industrial mechanic of 30+ years , and you still teach Me something new every time I need it ! 👍💥💥👍
Wow, thanks
We can all learn from each other, apparently my one professor in college said she learned a few things from me in my limited time there.
# 4 black Diamond starter cord is pretty popular!!
Amazing video! Helpful and useful. Thank you.
You're very welcome!
I have to be honest I think I’m more excited about the boot laces then I am the pull cord
Who knew!....Awesome!
Your the best, thanks for your knowledge to pass on to us
My pleasure!
Holly mother of beer, what a starter cord
Right on
Never disappointed in Steve’s videos - there’s ALWAYS good learning” there! Thanks Steve!
Thank you Steve.
You're Welcome...
We love you too, Steve! Canadians and Americans have so much in common. With the exception of a few words, we sound very similar when we talk, except for the French, of course. Like I said, we have so much in common. I believe generally we have the same heart for our lives. It’s just our governments that suck.
Steve: "check this out right now!"
YT: COMERCIAL!
😂
Good stuff Steve. I appreciate the extra tip at the end for checking that you haven't over-wound the spring.
Glad to help
Made in the U.S.A.!Thanks Mr.
Right on
Strength is a large factor here, but abrasion resistance might be just as important. I'd be curious to see how it performs against other cord types with a couple hundred pounds hanging from it, and some strong passes with a saw file or similar. My guess is it would be just fine, or even better than the rest.
Also interesting that the first cord tested broke at the knot, not in the field. As I understand it, knots are generally the weakest point of a rope or cord.
Agreed. Although the strength test was impressive, I doubt many people break a rope because it's not strong enough. They break it because of wear. I would imagine this brand is good in that department too, but that wasn't demonstrated, so it's just a guess.
Hi Corey, our diamondcord™ starter pull cords were abrasion tested by Dr. Nichols at Tension Technology International’s test laboratory and a special three station cord abrasion tester was used in these tests. This tester is essentially a scale-up of the yarn-on-yarn abrasion tester used in the Cordage Institute yarn abrasion test.Three diamondcord™ pull cord specimens were tested until failure. These failed at 1,205,894, 1,356,800, and 1,732,862 pulls respectively. The average pulls to failure was 1,431,852 pulls. Happy to answer any more questions you may have:)
@@DiamondPerformanceLtd Were the tests done pulling the cord straight out of the recoiler or with the cord touching the sides??? Did you treat the cord with any wax, bar soap etc....? That's a hell of a lot of pulls and very impressive....
HI Michael, our cord was run was run through an eyelet at an angle of 20 degrees, so yes, touching the sides.
A tensioning load of 4.4 kg (10 lb) was hung on the end of the cord and was cycled back and forth through the eyelet with a stroke of 38 mm (1.5 in.) at about 50 cycles per minute. A unique treatment we've developed is applied to both our diamondcord and diamondlaces, which enhances the resistance to chemicals, UV and abrasion. Thanks for your compliment and I hope you decide to give our products a try! Again, if you're dissatisfied with our products for any reason or they fail in any way, then we'll give you a full refund or a replacement free of charge, including shipping.
@@DiamondPerformanceLtd I have already ordered one of each size for spares...
That knot trick is pretty good, but I know another way to keep it from untying: just heat the knot until it softens a little. When it cools, it will be like a little rock. I use a lighter, but care must be taken to not set the cord afire.
you are weakening the shit out of the rope broh
I've been doing small engine repair for 30 plus years and I found the best way to make a knot. Loop it like a regular knot then loop it back through the opposite way then tie it. Pull it tight and heat it with a lighter or torch and it will never come undone. The problem I find with all broken cords, even the Diamond Rope or best ropes is the rubbing against the openings where the rope comes out of the recoil or on the mower rope guide.
The rope runs and breaks in these areas.
I probably do at least one or two a month on all equipment and the ropes all do the same. They wear through and break
@@marknye51.thefixitguy
Appreciate that.
Would rubbing a bit of wax on the part that gets most of the rub friction help? Wax does great on my zippers.
Yeah, I've noticed pull cords wear potcreally fast where the opening has a groove worn into it.
@@ByDesign333 great idea
Most of the time you don't use the cord to pick up your tool or equipment, it's used to start it. Also, it isn't only the tension that kills the cord, it's the friction going through the recoil starter's eyelet and through other eyelets as well. Take for example my Honda commercial lawn mower: The cord is incredibly thick but you can see it start to turn fuzzy due to the friction of it running through the recoil starter eyelet as well as the eyelet on the handlebar. The same applies to shoelaces, it's the friction.
Hi Techyman, our cord was run was run through an eyelet at an angle of 20 degrees, so yes, touching the sides.
A tensioning load of 4.4 kg (10 lb) was hung on the end of the cord and was cycled back and forth through the eyelet with a stroke of 38 mm (1.5 in.) at about 50 cycles per minute.

great video as usual steve.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great job and information sir. Thank you 😊
You're Welcome...
Your the man Steve. From Melbourne AUSTRALIA 👍🤠
Thank You...
MADE IN THE USA......WE NEED A LOT MORE OF THAT!
I agree!
This is my favourite UA-cam channel. Awesome stuff Steve !
Thank You...
After I had a sailboat, I always use a figure 8 stopper knot, it’s slightly bigger than the overhand knot, helps if the hole is on the large side.
I agree!
Nice!! Hey Steve, that's one of my favorite beers.
Right on
Steve, there is an art to most repairs and you nailed it on this one 👍👍👍👍👍. Always great to have the insights you are generous to share! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank You...
Do you have a guide of what size rope goes in different equipment.
That knot drew up like me getting into a Canadian swimming pool in January 😂
LMAO! Right on
I had to chuckle when you said "S___s" :)
I have a couple spools of that here at home, one big, one small, and Ive found it to be superior to the Stihl rope.
You were talking about not doing customers anymore , just family and friends .
I did a riding mower last year , it didn’t run . Told the owner it could be easy and it might need something bigger ( large parts ) told her I’ll get back what I find before fixing ! Ok fine she says .
I found it needed a belt and battery . The price would be $260 which included a power wash , she said you keep the mower the price is beyond her wallet .
I did the repairs and mowed several yards . Then I was offered $400 for the mower !
My yard is less then a 1/4 acre , front yard I can do in one swipe .
3 weeks after selling the mower she wants the mower back , after telling her it gone she had her nephew on me . Explained it in detail and showed him my emails , ok thanks I’ll explain it to her in detail . I sent him all the emails so he can show her what went down .
I no longer am doing any repairs on anything, the state is trying to get everyone to be certified in repairs
Thank you. I was about to ask for boot laces. You beat me to it. Very impressive.
I agree!
Thanks Steve.
You're Welcome...
Excellent video well explained.From the highlands of Scotland 🏴
Thanks 👍
Fantastic job on the video Steve and April and thanks very much for placing your trust in our product lines😀
Our pleasure!
Thank you Steve.
I do wish I was aware of this years ago, still may come in handy in the future! 👍👍
Glad to help
Nice. I replaced the starting cords on some of the outboard motors I was working on. The handles I noticed were split on the stem end so I took a short piece of NICOP brake line, flared the ends and inserted into handle, inserted the cord and good to go.
Thank you steeve ❤
You're Welcome...
Great video as usual!
Thank You...
Thank you for the video.
I have a cub cadet snow blower with a frayed cord that needs replacing. The cord is somewhat thicker.
Fortunately the blower has an electric start.
Maybe I can fix the cord thanks to your video.
Thank you also for continuing to do your videos as they are very informative and helpful.
Nice that's it's USA made. But any time I break a boot lace or pull cord I replace it with military para cord. Great material, super tough. Never had it break on me.
Straight tensile strength is valuable, but for a pull cord, I'm more concerned about abrasion resistance, abrasion being why most such cords fail. I wouldn't be surprised if Diamondcord excels in this category as well, but that isn't what a heavy lift tests for.

Thanks man..always enjoy your videos ♥
You're Welcome...and Thank You...
Was about to start typing some questions into the comments while I was watching the videos, but as usual, you managed to answer them all by the end of the video. In a pinch - I've used paracord as a starter rope and haven't had to replace it yet, but now I think I have to double check my spring tension. Cheers!
my paracord separates from the inner core. what brand do you use? your suggestions are appreciated. thanks
Right on
@@philbodden4981 Not 100% sure but I think it was Sterling #550 Commercial 7-Strand Cord. I always go for Orange paracord since it matches my small engine equipment and I don't trip over it if I use it as a tie down. Got it from Sportsman Warehouse. Never had it fail on me but I also ensure knots are very tight, burn the ends and am not especially hard on them. Also - most of my usage is in the winter when they have a little less stretch.
@@DavidWillequer Thank You
I might have to get those for my boots as an emergency cord in survival
Great idea!
Very impressive i am going to buy some,thanks Steve as always.
Please do!
Thanks very much for your purchase:)
Great demo and helpful hints!!! You are a real pro teacher!! Thank you Mr. Steve 😀
Thank You...and You're Welcome...
Impressive stuff indeed......thanks!
I agree!
A guess can still keep the stihl pull starter handle and still use the diamond cord
WOW, Im ordering right now thats insane!!! EDIT: They are out of stock!!!
Sorry, our products are currently not available to purchase on Amazon Canada store.
Looks like a great candidate to replace my outboard pull-start cord.😁
Go for it!
And we love you too buddy! Yay Canada!😊 This is truly an awesome life saver. I hate it when my ropes bust. Had to replace the one on my mower three times.
Hope you have an excellent day and weekend.
Thank You...
@@StevesSmallEngineSaloon most welcome!
thank you steve !!
You're Welcome...
Great video..! Thanks for doing what you're doing. I'm still wearing my T-shirt.!
Rock on!
Thanks Steve. Glad you are still going to make videos. Great knot trick. I use needle nose pliers never could get them that tight. I use a butane lighter and put a quick melt in the knot instead of glue.
Thanks for the tip on the rope and how to wind. Thanks
You're Welcome...
Good as normal! Thanks!!!!
You're welcome!
You’re the greatest wealth of information 👍🏻appreciate it as always!!
Thanks
Awesome advice! Will need to order several to upgrade my equipment. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
THANKS FOR THE GREAT TIPS 😁😁👍👍
Any time!
Fantastic tips Steve O ! Really enjoy your content and glad to see you posting more videos. Good luck on your new career move . Cheers 🍻 and Steve Out!
Thanks so much!
Could you do a video covering the diffrence between winter and summer mode on a chainsaw?
Wax works well
Wow!! Thanks!
You're welcome!
Hey Steve! thanks for educating and entertaining us. is this a one or two beer job? that looks like a Warsteiner.
Great info Steve. I'll have to check this out. I use the "blue" rope too, mostly for the UV resistance. Thanks!
Right on Stella!
Happy December to ya Steve....🇺🇸🏴
Thank You...
Great info Steve thank you from Chicago. I just wished I talked with you before ordering the three spools of the sizes I use most. 😱 I have used glue in the past but once I learned how to tie a secure knot I’ve not used glue since.
miss ya
Useful piece of information, like always on Your channel. Greetings from Poland (UE).
Many thanks!
SOLD! 😅 THANK YOU! Literally found the chord on my 372xp frayed half way through yesterday. Great timing!
Nice!!
Awesome video God Bless you and your family
Thanks so much
The Stihl elasto start ropes are a little pricey but I haven't had one fail yet. For my lawnmowers I use paracord.
Great product will save many 😊
I think so too!
I have an old Stihl 031 i am forever breaking the cord or changing the paws. I will have to try that cord.
Go for it!
I'm sure I'd come to the conclusion eventually.
After a few days of frustrations, headaches,
and wondering WTF MAN!🤣
Appreciate the heads-up dude.
Definitely gonna use your knot trick next time 👍✊
You should! Thank You...
My only question was do they sell spools and you answered that question. Thanks
You're Welcome...
Thanks for dumbing it down for me. I’ve always had issues with getting the rope back on without the issue of it unwinding when trying to reinstall the apparatus.
Question: how does one know when their recoil is set up for hand winding the rope on?
Thanks😊😊
You're Welcome...
smooth..........
Steve, love your channel and looking for some advise. I have a DRPOWER 7HP lawn vac and it just started leaking oil yesterday. I can’t find out from where? Any suggestions?
Awesome thanks Steve. 🇺🇲
Any time!
awesome!
Thank you! Cheers!
👍👍👍.Thank you
Welcome 👍
Tight but not too tight
Thanks Sreve. I hate replacing starter rope.
You're Welcome...
That’s just great.
Thank You...
AWESOME ! Thank You .
Thank you too!
Good Morning Steve! Great video. i Love watching your Awesome videos. Thank You So VERY Much for the info about diamond cord. i will be ordering some diamond cord. i need a good rope for the pull starter on my polaris 4 wheeler, i am tired of replacing ropes the break. also i am tired of replacing my boot laces. keep up the Awesome work! :)
You're Welcome...and Thank You...
Thanks in advance for your purchase and please reach out if you have any questions:)
Thank you. I love you back.
You're Welcome...and Thank You...
Awesome 👍 💪...🎉
Thanks ✌️
Can you make video of electric starters for small engines. Also that they charge the battery.
Steve, I *wish* you'd put out this video a couple of months ago - I would have JUMPED on the purchase of Diamondcord! It took three attempts and three different rope types to finally get my Troy Bilt Cultivator/Edger recoil start repaired! However, it was a lesson learned, and I heartily suggest to *not* make shortcuts and try to "make do" when it comes to pull start cords.
Hint: "paracord" is not a suitable substitute, even the *genuine* stuff. Thanks for the video, Steve!! 😃 👍
Edit to ADD: I found that abrasion resistance was a *MAJOR* factor in rope performance.
Impressive
I agree!
Fabulous instruction as ever. Steve how resistant is diamond cord to abrasion - the main cause of cord failure in my experience ?
www.diamond-performance.com/testing/testing-and-manufacturing
I have used Diamond Cord on some of the machines i work on and it does a wonderful job, also have never had one break and that is saying something with some of these gorilla's yanking in a commercial environment. Tensile strength & good abrasion resistance, buy by the roll it is exceptionally more cost effective. Cheers.
Thanks for sharing
I really appreciate your positive feedback and thanks for being our loyal customer.
Very nice.❤❤❤
Thank you! Cheers!
That smaller rope looks like what loggers call Spectra rope only it's smaller than what they use. I've got some of that rope but only 5 times bigger. That stuff is super strong.
