Knitting

Machine direction and cross direction yarns are stitched together using a third yarn, creating a strong mechanical bond

Details

In the knitting process, machine direction and cross direction yarns are stitched together using a third yarn, creating a strong, dimensionally stable mechanical bond. Nonwoven substrates can also be inserted, creating a laminate with no possibility of delamination. These constructions can then be coated with a functional binder tailored to fit your application.

Features & Benefits: 

  • Dimensional stability
  • Tensile strength 
  • Excellent bonding due to open grid construction
  • Uniform appearance

Markets and Applications

  • Asphalt reinforcement
  • Concrete reinforcement
  • Modified bitumen roofing
  • Liquid applied roofing
  • Drywall tape

Process:
Three different yarn sources are used to form a fabric. There are warp (machine direction) yarns, weft (cross direction) yarns and a stitch polyester yarn that is used to tie the warp and weft yarns together.
