Air Covered Elastic Yarn

Air Covered Elastic Yarn

Air Covered Elastic Yarn is a high-performance elastic yarn produced by wrapping spandex with nylon or polyester fibers through an air-jet covering process. This method creates a fluffy, textured surface while maintaining strong elasticity and excellent recovery. The yarn features a soft hand feel, uniform structure, and stable tension, making it easy to process on knitting machines with low breakage. With good durability, abrasion resistance, and wash stability, it retains its stretch and shape over time, ensuring consistent quality and reliable performance in stretch fabric constructions.
