MECHANICAL PROPERTIES
Tensile Strength
The tensile strength of Style 1000 and Style 1200 are different due to the different method of reinforcing the stainless wires and its diameter. Style 1000 twisted yarn has a better strength than that of Style 1200 as tested in our in-house laboratory. Below are the test results done on 3 different types of reinforcement using both the Style 1000 and Style 1200 configurations.
Style No. Cotton threads per yarn Stainless wires per yarn Tensile strength
TD1000S-10 6 2 > 2.2kg
TD1200S-10 8 1 > 1.6kg
TD1000C-10 8 0 > 1.4kg
