Y-shape knitted elastic bands are widely used in garments, sportswear, and medical textiles due to their flexibility, comfort, and stability. The production of these bands relies on specialized knitting techniques and material selection.

Material Selection

The process begins with selecting the appropriate yarns, typically a combination of synthetic fibers such as polyester or nylon, and elastic fibers like spandex. The synthetic fibers provide strength and dimensional stability, while elastic fibers allow the band to stretch and recover. The ratio and quality of these fibers are critical for the final performance of the band.

Knitting Technique

Y-shape knitted elastic bands are produced using circular or flat knitting machines equipped with specialized needle arrangements. The Y-shape pattern is created by controlling the loop formation and tension across different sections of the band. This allows one part of the band to maintain a broader width for support while the other tapers, producing the characteristic Y-shape.

Loop Control and Tension Adjustment

During knitting, precise control of loop size and tension is essential. Even minor variations can affect the elasticity, width, and durability of the band. Knitting parameters are adjusted based on fiber properties and desired elasticity, ensuring that the band stretches evenly and returns to its original shape after use.

Finishing Processes

After knitting, the elastic bands undergo finishing steps such as heat setting, washing, and inspection. Heat setting stabilizes the fiber arrangement and ensures that the Y-shape is maintained during subsequent use. The bands are also checked for uniformity, elasticity, and structural integrity before packaging.

The pattern of the warp jacquard belt is relatively simple and simple, while the pattern of the weft jacquard belt is large and exquisite, with clear color layers and strong three-dimensional sense. jacquard elastic band can also be divided into single-sided jacquard and double-sided jacquard. The single-sided jacquard only has a jacquard pattern on the front, but not on the back. Double-sided jacquard has jacquard patterns on both sides. This jacquard is more beautiful and fashionable, highlighting the designer's design concept.
Jacquard elastic band, we usually have polyester jacquard elastic band, nylon jacquard elastic band, etc. Jacquard pattern and logo can be customized.
