Light Cord Bead by 5.11 Tactical® is a compact set containing three lengths of paracord and four photoluminescent beads for personalizing and visually marking gear. The set can be used to create lanyards, zipper pulls, markers and other small accessories for backpacks, bags, organizers and EDC gear.

The set includes three paracord lengths in Black, Coyote and Olive. Each cord measures 50 cm in length and 3 mm in thickness. The set also includes 4 photoluminescent TPU beads that absorb light energy and gradually release it as a visible glow in the dark.

Thanks to the afterglow effect, the Light Cord Bead set not only allows you to personalize your gear but can also help make marked items easier to identify in low-light conditions.

Photoluminescent Beads

The key feature of the 5.11 Tactical® Light Cord Bead set is its four beads made from high-performance photoluminescent material.

The material absorbs energy when exposed to light and gradually releases it as a visible glow in darkness. To reactivate the effect, simply expose the beads to a suitable light source again.

Light-Activated Glow

The photoluminescent beads do not require batteries or electronic components. Their glow is produced by the properties of the material itself.

The beads can be activated by natural sunlight or a suitable artificial light source. Light sources with a UV component are particularly effective at activating photoluminescent materials.

The intensity and duration of the afterglow depend on the intensity of the light source, exposure time and environmental conditions.

Helps Identify Gear in the Dark

A photoluminescent element can be used as a visual marker. After being exposed to light, the bead remains visible in darkness, helping make marked gear easier to identify in low-light conditions.

This can be useful for backpacks, bags, organizers, zipper pulls and other items that need to be located quickly when lighting is limited.

4 TPU Beads

The set includes 4 photoluminescent beads made from TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane).

TPU combines flexibility and wear resistance, making it well suited to small accessories that regularly come into contact with other pieces of gear.

Three Paracord Colors

The set includes three separate lengths of paracord:

• Black — 50 cm;
• Coyote — 50 cm;
• Olive — 50 cm.

The different colors allow you to coordinate the cord with your gear or, alternatively, create a contrasting marker for easier visual identification.

3 mm Paracord

The included paracord measures 3 mm in thickness. This compact diameter is well suited for creating small pulls, lanyards and decorative accessories.

Each of the three cord lengths measures 50 cm, allowing you to create accessories in the size and configuration that best suits your needs.

Personalize Your EDC Gear

The Light Cord Bead set allows you to give your gear a more individual appearance. The different paracord colors can be combined with the photoluminescent beads according to personal preference.

The set can be used to personalize:

• backpacks;
• bags;
• organizers;
• zipper pulls;
• keys;
• EDC accessories;
• other compatible gear.

Lanyards and Pulls

The paracord and beads can be used to create compact lanyards, pulls and visual markers. These accessories can serve both decorative and identification purposes.

The photoluminescent bead adds another practical feature — the ability to remain visually noticeable for a period of time after the surrounding light has been removed.

No Batteries Required

The photoluminescent effect requires no batteries, rechargeable cells, wires or electronics. The beads work through the material's ability to absorb and subsequently release light energy.

Once the glow begins to fade, the beads can simply be exposed to light again to reactivate the effect.

Compact EDC Accessory

The set takes up very little space and provides enough components to create several small accessories for different pieces of gear.

The combination of three paracord colors and four photoluminescent beads makes the 5.11 Tactical® Light Cord Bead an interesting option for users who want to personalize their EDC gear and add elements that are easier to identify in the dark.
