World Record Progression 4 × 100 Metres Freestyle Relay
This article includes the world record progression for the 4×100 metres freestyle relay, and it shows the chronological history of world record times in that competitive swimming event. The 4×100 metres freestyle relay is a relay event in which each of four swimmers on a team swims a 100-metre freestyle leg in sequence. The world records are recognized by and maintained by FINA (french: Fédération Internationale de Natation), the international competitive swimming and aquatics federation that overseas the sport in international competition.
