Elastic Webbing Tape No 4
Woven elastic tape that recovers to its original length, specified by stretch percentage rather than by feel.
What This Item Is
Elastic Webbing Tape No 4 is woven to order at the width and thickness you specify rather than picked from a stock range. Any width, and a thickness from 0.65 mm up to 2.5 mm unless you need something outside that. Shade is agreed on a woven sample before the bulk lot runs, and that lot covers the entire order. Sampling runs 3 to 7 days; the production window is 7 to 15 days from approval.

How It Compares
Knitted elastic is softer and cheaper but narrows more when stretched. Woven elastic holds its width, which matters where the tape runs through a channel or a buckle.
Rigid tape gives a fixed length under load. Elastic is for anything that has to accommodate movement or a range of body sizes.
Cord is for drawstrings and toggles. Flat elastic webbing distributes pressure across a width instead of cutting a line into the material.
Use Guide
- Sew with a stitch that allows movement or the thread will break before the elastic does
- Store away from heat and direct light to protect recovery
- Cut from relaxed tape, never from tape held under tension on the roll
- Specify stretch as a percentage and state whether you measure relaxed or extended width

Questions Buyers Ask About Elastic Webbing Tape No 4
Can elastic webbing carry a woven logo
Yes. A computer jacquard brand name can be woven across the face. Bear in mind the pattern reads slightly differently relaxed and extended, so tell us which state matters to you.
Why does my elastic tape measure narrower than ordered
Almost always because it was measured under tension. We record relaxed width after setting and relaxation, and we recommend you measure the same way.
Can our logo be added to this tape
Either woven in with a computer jacquard plate, which survives washing and abrasion, or screen printed after weaving, which costs less to set up on short runs.
How is this item packed for export
50 yards per roll and 30 rolls per carton as standard, with some items on 500 yard rolls. We pack to your own list when you have one.
