How many ft is on a big spool from Cordex?

Why?

We mainly run Cordex Extreme in all 6 strings, trying some Maxxcord in 1 and 6 this year though.
Main reason we have cordex is we used 10 pallets last year and didn't have any trouble.
Used 4 pallets of other brands and decided it wasn't worth changing.
Never had any problems with Farmers string, we used to use it all the time but moved away when we started needing stronger product. If it was for own use it'd be fine.
Cotesi is good stuff too, we had some Platinum years ago which was awful but they've altered it and it's a well proven product now. Cordex are 3-4% cheaper than Cotesi, but Cotesi claim to have 3-4% extra run length.

I have no idea as nothing written on the packaging. There must be three dirrerent sizes as we had smaller ones than in the picture in the 187 then went to the larger spools on the left 2 years ago and then onto the giant spools last year

I think the bigger ones youve got are the same as the tama 9800, the cotesi seems to be a fair ball

Looks about the same size as the ones I use now. The xtreme spool is the same size as the giant spool obviously slightly less in it but hardly noticeable on a days baling.

I've heard from the local Agrii rep that Farmers are now doing a range of high knot strength twines, 300kg knot strength, apparently the strongest on the market at the mo.

The Xpro is a stronger twine, but certainly not the strongest.
Krone HDP Strong is 315kg knot strength, Cordex Maxxcord and Cotesi One Plus are similar.

I tried this stuff last season, some bought from Countrywide, some from T H White, bales popping everywhere....won't be using it again
Who makes Krone's string we had some that came in new baler last year looked very strong but we already had 3 pallets of Tamma so moved onto it and didn't notice any difference
