A cord is stronger than the sum of the strength of the individual fibres.
This is because whereas an individual fibre could have its weakest point anywhere along its length, when it is wound with other threads, this weakness will be covered up by friction from adjacent fibres. These are unlikely to have their weakest points coinciding.
This contrasts with "a chain is only as strong as its weakest link".
The Romans knew that a bound bundle of sticks was stronger than an individual one. This they called fasces.
