25mm polyester jackstay webbing combining many of the benefits of both polypropelene and nylon but without the negatives. Polyester is Polyethylene Terephalate.
Uses: due to its excellent resistance to sunlight it is ideal for outdoor use, it is a versatile fibre which has excellent properties for many applications. Use with 25mm buckles and fixings.
- Very high strength tenacity (up to 10g/den)
- Breaking strength 3000kg
- Elongation - up to 25% at breaking point
- Abrasion - excellent resistance (5 times that of polypropelene softer feel)
- Moisture - has a very low regain of 0.4% making it feel damp very quickly
- Temperature - the melting point is around 260 degrees C and will withstand temperatures above 180 degrees C for some time. It will lose some strength if kept at high temperature for extended periods. low temperature resistance is very good increasing in strength and reducing elongation.
- It is difficult to ignite and due to its tightly woven structure burns slowly
- Inert to most common chemicals
- Excellent colour fastness
- Rot, UV and mildew resistant
