Non-Stretch Cord
Elastic Cord & Webbing’s non-stretch braided cord is commonly used for industrial applications, in the garment industry, and as decorative cord. We offer non-stretch cord in cut lengths, as tipped pieces, and in spool.
The strength of braided non-stretch cord depends on the cord’s material, weave, and diameter. For example, a basket weave (also known as diamond weave) is stronger than a plain weave. Price is generally dependent on material and diameter. No matter the market or application, diameter is usually chosen based on aesthetics.
