There's a link which shows the tubular webbing that REI sells. They give the strength in kilonewtons. Our rules specify jacklines with 4500 pounds strength.
I used the following two converters to convert kilonewtons to pounds

The 1' mil spec webbing, yellow on the REI page is rated at 18 kilonewtons. The blue variety is rated at 17.8 kilonewtons. 18 kilonewtons converts to 4038 pounds, and does not satisfy SSS LongPac requirements.
This stuff...

The two inch tubular Blue Water webbing, rates at 30 kilonewtons (6730 pounds) , and does exceed SSS rules specs. It's 65 cents a foot. Thus, 30 feet will run you about $20. OF course you'll have to stitch it up yourself on a sewing machine or have a sailmaker/canvas worker and you'll have to do a darned good job, multiple bar-tacking it. A few hand-stitches at home in front of the TV ain't gonna cut it.
A 30 foot, 7,000 pound test jackline from West Marine in polypro will run you $57.99

If I look at your jacklines and they appear to have lived out in the sun for an extended period, I'm gonna tell you to go buy new ones.
