Spare Parts for Underwear and Sportswear Fabric
Elastane blended fabric, where draft, recovery and width are as important as weight, and the elastane feed path decides all three.
Where It Hurts
- Fabric width and recovery varying across a roll
- Elastane breaks at worn guide pulleys
- Draft drifting because the lycra feeder is no longer holding rate
- Fine filament yarn marking on grooved guides
What You Need From a Parts Supplier
- Free running lycra guide pulleys and correct wheel diameters
- Lycra feeders that hold delivery rate
- Ceramic yarn guides on the fine yarn path
Part Groups That Matter Most
Typical Application Scenarios
- Replacing the whole elastane guide path on a machine with width variation
- Changing feeder wheels to reset draft
- Fitting ceramic guides where metal eyelets have grooved

Where does width variation usually come from?
Most often from the elastane feed, a seized guide pulley, a feeder that has lost rate, or a wheel diameter that has been changed without re-checking the fabric.
Why ceramic guides for filament yarn?
A grooved metal eyelet develops a sharp edge that splits filaments. Ceramic stays smooth much longer.
