Woven Cord and String No 6
Round and flat cord for drawstrings, handles and hang tags, matched to the webbing on the same product.
What This Item Is
Woven Cord and String No 6 is woven, dyed and packed in one mill, which is why the specification does not drift between steps. We weave it between 0.65 mm and 2.5 mm thick, with the width taken from whatever you send us. You approve the colour on woven material rather than on a screen, and the reserved dye lot keeps it that way. Sampling runs 3 to 7 days; the production window is 7 to 15 days from approval.
Key Benefits
- Polyester, cotton and polypropylene constructions from one supplier
- Round or flat sections to suit the eyelet or channel you are using
- Cut and tipped lengths supplied where you want to skip an operation
- Consistent diameter along the roll so automatic threading does not jam
- Sample lengths in 3 to 7 days before you commit the colour
Problems It Solves
- Width variation that stops hardware sliding cleanly on the finished strap
- Repeat orders that no longer match the original because nothing was archived
- Branding that wears off a component long before the product does
Who It Is For

- Stationery and craft suppliers
- Shoe and accessory makers specifying laces and pulls
Application Scenarios
- Shoe laces and accessory pulls

Materials
- Polyester cord for strength and colour hold
- Cotton cord for a natural matt finish and a soft hand
- Polypropylene cord where weight and cost dominate
Quality Control
- Diameter measured along the length, not only at the coil end
- Shade cross-checked against the matching webbing order, not only against the swatch
- Cut lengths sampled for length tolerance where we cut and tip
- SGS testing arranged on request before shipment
What You Can Change
- Metal or heat sealed tipping on cut lengths
- Packing to your carton and count specification
- Round or flat section in the diameter you need
- Matched to a webbing order so both components share a dye reference
How This Item Is Made
- Yarn and construction selection
- Colour matching to your webbing reference
- Braiding or weaving
- Setting and diameter check
- Optional cutting and tipping
- Coiling, measuring and packing
How It Compares
Cord passes through eyelets and channels that flat tape cannot, and it knots cleanly. Tape spreads load across a width, which cord does not.
Elastic cord is for anything that needs to give. Fixed cord holds a set length, which is what a drawstring or a hang tag actually wants.
Braided and woven cord holds its round section and resists untwisting. Twisted string is cheaper but opens up at the cut end.
Use Guide
- Ask for heat sealed or metal tipping if the cord is threaded by hand on your line
- Order cord and webbing together so both are dyed against one reference
- State whether the cord is cut before or after dyeing, as the end finish differs
- Give the eyelet or channel diameter and we will recommend the cord size

Questions Buyers Ask About Woven Cord and String No 6
Do you supply cord already cut to length
Yes. We can cut and tip to your finished length so you skip that operation, or supply on rolls if you cut in house.
What stops the cord ends from fraying
Heat sealing on synthetic cord and metal or plastic tipping on cotton. Tell us the threading method and we will suggest which suits your line.
Can you supply a test report
SGS testing is arranged on request before shipment. Tell us at quotation stage which properties need to be reported.
Will a repeat order match this one
Yes, provided you quote the same order reference. The colour reference and any jacquard plate stay on file here for exactly that reason.
Do you weave to a drawing
That is the normal case. Width and thickness come from your specification rather than from a standard size list.
