Its controlled elongation minimises the risk of seam extension failure on stretch fabrics.
In drier atmospheric conditions the lower static and lower dynamic friction values of Coats Eloflex AS minimise the attraction of down towards the needle, helping to prevent down leakage through needle holes. The lower dynamic friction values of Coats Eloflex AS also enhance the uniformity of the stitch formation allowing neat, well balanced seams.
