Detailed description
The specification sheet for this item is short, which is exactly why it gets mis-bought. Two suppliers can both call a roll nylon hook and loop and still ship different yarn counts, different hook densities and a different put-up.
What the buyer is choosing
The mistake in comparing quotes is looking at the width and the colour and ignoring the yarn. A 25 mm roll at 380 g/m2 and a 25 mm roll at 300 g/m2 look identical in a photograph and behave completely differently after five hundred cycles.
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.
How it is quoted
Payment is 30 percent deposit with the balance against a copy of the bill of lading. Mixed widths on one purchase order are quoted as separate lines with a shared lead time, which is usually cheaper than splitting the order.
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 you are comparing suppliers, send the other quotes with the specifications attached and we will tell you which line item is the one that will move on the invoice.
