Type 3 suspension line (550 cord) is made of 7 internal strands of 6cord (civilian equivalent cs 415, about 73 lb strength), which is the same cord used to sew many military parachute harnesses. These strands are housed in a Type 2a sleeve. Several strengths of suspension line are made with varying numbers of internal strands.
My kitchen sink faucet water was draining into my dishwasher and I fixed it with 550 cord. I tied the drain line with 550 cord so the highest part sits above the garage disposal, problem solved.

My DIY washing line is 550 Paracord. It's a little bit fuzzy, faded a lot, but as strong as ever after 9 years in the elements.
