I would think it is stronger than those homemade leashes made out of phone cords.

Don't worry the carabineer will rust out in a matter of days............

You can probably make something better for less.

If the equipment you are trying to protect is valuable, then don't go cheap on your leash. Your leash should be at least strong enough to keep your rod attached to your yak that is tumbling away in the surf.

Get this instead. It's $1 more and made of solid wire. It also coils which you'd be surprised, but it help A LOT
