I need to order some of this, but have never seen any. McMaster has 5/16 and 7/16. Which should I buy? Any other sources besides Eriks?

I have gotten the 5/16 from McMaster Carr. It is the correct diameter. Make sure you order the EPDM cord.

Thanks ya'll. Not sure why your thread Gunzy does not show up when you search "super rope".

5/16 is the correct original size. Gunzy did some good work on this. I ended up at the local trucker supply store and went with the 3/8 that they had in stock. Took candle wax and waxed the holes in the tarp and the 3/8 worked like a champ. I just replaced the ones that were bad for about .35 per foot. So it cost about 2 bucks to do the two bad ones. i bought a little extra and can go to the store when i need more.
