Polyester Webbing Tape No 15
Dimensionally stable polyester tape for straps that must hold their shape, their colour and their rated load outdoors.
What This Item Is
Polyester Webbing Tape No 15 is produced to a customer drawing, not to a catalogue size. Thickness runs from 0.65 mm to 2.5 mm, or to your own figure, and width is set by your drawing. Pantone matching is standard, and reserving a single dye lot is what keeps the shade steady from first roll to last. Samples take 3 to 7 days and production 7 to 15 days once the sample is approved.
Key Benefits
- Pantone colour matching against a number or against a swatch you send us
- One dye lot reserved for the whole order so shade does not drift mid-run
- Computer jacquard logo weaving available on the same tape
- Screen printing available after weaving when tooling cannot be justified
- SGS testing arranged on request before shipment
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
- Production planners who need a delivery date quoted with the price
- Backpack and luggage factories specifying shoulder and compression straps
- Harness and lanyard assemblers who need repeatable width and thickness
Application Scenarios
- Pet collars and leads that get washed regularly
- Automotive interior pulls and retention loops
- Furniture and upholstery support webbing
- Backpack shoulder straps and sternum straps
Technical Features
- Smooth near-round filament cross section for a clean even face
- Pantone matched dyeing with the reference agreed before weaving starts
- Thickness woven from 0.65 mm to 2.5 mm against your own drawing
- Thickness woven from 0.65 mm to 2.5 mm, or to your own figure

How It Compares
Polyester holds its length and colour far better outdoors. Polypropylene is lighter and cheaper but its melting point is only 165 to 173 degrees Celsius and it ages faster in light.
Polyester is stronger wet than dry cotton and does not mildew. Cotton wins on hand feel and on anything that will be dyed or printed by the customer later.
Nylon takes up around 4 per cent moisture against polyester's 0.4 per cent, so nylon straps go heavy and stretch in the wet while polyester holds.
Use Guide
- Specify roll length to match your cutting table so you waste less tail
- Send the width, thickness and a colour reference; a Pantone number is faster than a description
- Ask for the sample roll before the bulk dye lot is committed
- Keep finished rolls out of direct light during storage to avoid yellowing

Questions Buyers Ask About Polyester Webbing Tape No 15
What is the minimum order for polyester webbing
1000 metres per colour and width for standard production. Sample lengths are available in 3 to 7 days so you can test before committing.
Does polyester webbing stretch under load
Far less than nylon or polypropylene. Polyester's low moisture regain of about 0.4 per cent means it behaves almost the same wet as dry, so a strap tensioned in the rain does not lengthen the way a nylon one will.
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.
