Donaghys 16 Plait Smooth & Firm Polyester Starter Cord - White
    
Ultimate Reliability for Starting Mechanisms
    
The Donaghys **16 Plait Smooth & Firm Polyester Starter Cord** is specifically engineered to provide maximum performance and lifespan in demanding recoil applications. Manufactured from **100% high-tenacity Polyester yarn**, this cord delivers the strength, stiffness, and durability required for all leading brand combustion engine starter mechanisms.
    
Engineered for Performance:
    
Unlike standard cordage, this starter line features a **tightly plaited 16 plait construction** that is stiff and firm, ensuring optimal function every time.
    
Key Features:
    

        
**Maximum Abrasion Resistance:** The hard-wearing polyester fibre stands up to the high-friction wear encountered in engine starter mechanisms.
        
**Stiff Construction:** Tightly plaited for a firm, controlled feel that is **non-kinking** and resists rotation or twisting, ensuring the cord spools and runs freely through eyelets.
        
**High Strength and Low Stretch:** Made from high-tenacity polyester for excellent tensile strength and durability under rapid load.
        
**UV Treated:** Stabilised against UV degradation to maintain integrity and long life, even when exposed to the elements.
        
**Smooth 16 Plait Finish:** Offers a clean, uniform look and soft handling for general-purpose use.
