How Do You Tie a Cord Strap?

Published in Knots & Ties 1 min read

To tie a cord strap, especially one used for securing items with a buckle, follow these steps:

  1. Initial Loop: Feed the loop of the strap through the center of the buckle.

  2. Upper Prong Engagement: Bring the looped strap around the upper prong of the buckle.

  3. Fold and Re-Loop: Fold the portion of the strap that is attached to the roll (or main part) toward you, creating another loop.

  4. Lower Prong Engagement: Feed this new loop through the center of the buckle again, this time around the bottom prong of the buckle.

  5. Tighten: Pull the strap to tighten it hand-tight.

This method creates a secure hold using the buckle's prongs to prevent slippage. The precise configuration of the buckle may slightly alter the steps, but the general principle of looping around the prongs for secure fastening remains the same.
