Woven Elastic Tape 40mm White

Woven Elastic Tape 40mm White

This wide elastic band in crisp white features a tight, ribbed texture you'll notice right away from the fine lengthwise stripes in the photos. The tape lies flat and winds firmly, with a fresh, even colour that works well with just about any fabric. At a generous 40mm width, this is real elastic tape for projects where you need more grip and wearing comfort than a thin elastic band would provide.

Product Features:

• Item Number: ELBAND40W
• Composition: 57% polyester, 43% elastane
• Width: 40 mm

What is this elastic fabric

This textile elastic is woven from polyester and elastane, giving you a stretch elastic that holds its shape well through frequent washing and stretching. The structure is firmly woven, not knitted, which means less curling at the edges and a neat finished appearance. As a 40mm polyester tape, this version is noticeably sturdier than narrower elastic bands, making it easy to work with without the tape twisting inside the casing. The white colour keeps it discreet under light fabrics, but you can also use it decoratively when you want a clean, tight finish. This elastic on roll is ready to use straight away - just cut the length you need.

• Upholstery and covers that need to stay tight
