Woven Cord and String No 8
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 8 is produced to a customer drawing, not to a catalogue size. Width is made to request and thickness sits anywhere between 0.65 mm and 2.5 mm. We match colour to Pantone or to your physical sample, then hold one dye lot across the full quantity. Sampling runs 3 to 7 days; the production window is 7 to 15 days from approval.

Materials

- 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
- Round or flat section in the diameter you need
- Matched to a webbing order so both components share a dye reference
- Supplied on rolls or pre-cut and tipped to length
- Metal or heat sealed tipping on cut lengths
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 8
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.
What is the minimum order for this item
1000 metres per colour and width on standard production. Some constructions run from 100 metres, so tell us what you need and we will confirm rather than quote a blanket figure.
How quickly can we see a physical sample
3 to 7 days. Production follows in 7 to 15 days once you approve the sample and the colour.
Can you match our colour reference
Yes, to a Pantone number or to a swatch you post to us. You approve a woven sample before the bulk dye lot is committed.
