I have some white Type V (1000) para-cord that I may have purchased from the same supplier you ordered from. This Type V cord does indeed have 14 inner strands with 3 yarns each, and one of the 14 strands is the color combination that is presently assigned to the manufacturer by the Dept. of Defense.

The vast majority of all the products this particular merchant sells are used by the parachute industry and, more particularly as to cord, in parachutes. This I know.

Even though the Type V is rarely mentioned in the literature, I'm much inclined to think official specs for MIL-C-5040 Type V and/or PIA-C-5040 Type V exist (particularly in regard to the air force and navy) --- if for no other reason than in the parachute business there is zero room for mis-representation or error by a raw material supplier. Even jumpers know that life-time guarantees relative to the cord they're danging from are irrelevant.

I found that the high end Swedish made "Fixlock 197" plastic cord locks work perfectly with my PIA-C-5040E Type V cord, even though the Fixlocks are rated for .28" cord and PIA-C-5040E Type V is only .25". However, Fixlock was merged with Abloy years ago (and Abloy was the surviving corporation), and I have no idea if .28" cord locks are even made in Gothenburg anymore.
