Detailed description
This is a woven hook and loop construction supplied to order. What follows is the part that decides whether the roll works on your line: the yarn, the width tolerance, the put-up and the paperwork that travels with the container.
What the buyer is choosing
Two things decide whether a roll suits an automated line: the width tolerance at the core and the outside of the roll, and whether the put-up is splice-free. Ask for both in writing. A supplier who quotes a tolerance only for the finished carton is quoting the wrong measurement.
The material question
The construction is a woven hook and loop face in the standard grade: enough hook density for a normal closure, priced for volume rather than for a five-year service life. If the application cycles more than a few thousand times, ask for the higher-density weave instead of paying twice for the same part.
With the liner-backed version, position the part before exposing the adhesive and roll it down with firm pressure. A peel test run twenty minutes after application reads low by design and should not be used to reject a lot.
How it is quoted
Minimum order is 500 m in a stock colour and 3,000 m for a custom dye run. The dye minimum is a machine load, not a policy: below it the lot cannot be dyed evenly, and a split lot reads as two colours under D65.
What ships with the goods
Peel and width are measured on the production lot, not on a sample kept from an earlier run. If your incoming inspection uses a different pull speed or dwell time, tell us and we will match it so the two numbers can be compared.
Checking it on arrival
Open one carton from the middle of the pallet, not the top. Condensation and compression both show up in the middle of a stack, and the top carton is the one that was packed with the most care.
If the grade is still open, send the application and the cycle count and we will tell you which of the three constructions is the cheapest one that will survive it.
