Some of the strongest string I have encountered is called 5/50 cord or other wise known as parachute cord...The best and strongest I have come across...Well it also depends what you plan on using it for..

carbon nanotubes. Only a few microns long, but they don't break under anything but astronomically high levels of stress. They can also be mixed with epoxy and made into longer strings, but with reduced strength.

A spiders silk, up to 50 times stronger than steel.
