Cutting Gauge in Seamless Frequently Asked Questions
Short answers to the questions buyers ask most often about Cutting Gauge in Seamless.
What does it mean?
stitch density of tubular seamless machines. Working figures for Cutting Gauge in Seamless normally sit around gauge 14 to 22 in mainstream production. Note machine specification on the tech pack so nobody tests against an older revision.
What value should be specified?
Start from gauge 14 to 22 and adjust for the end use of the garment. Record elastane content alongside Cutting Gauge in Seamless, because blends shift the measured value. A result outside gauge 14 to 22 usually points to process drift rather than to the fibre itself.
How is it tested?
machine specification. Keeping reference values for Cutting Gauge in Seamless lets suppliers quote without extra sampling rounds. Ask for conditioning details together with machine specification, since both affect the reading.
Why does it change between lots?
Process variables such as finishing temperature and elastane batch cause the normal spread of results. Working figures for Cutting Gauge in Seamless normally sit around gauge 14 to 22 in mainstream production. Note machine specification on the tech pack so nobody tests against an older revision.
Can results be compared across suppliers?
Only when the same standard revision and conditioning are used; otherwise measurements are not equivalent. Record elastane content alongside Cutting Gauge in Seamless, because blends shift the measured value. A result outside gauge 14 to 22 usually points to process drift rather than to the fibre itself.
