Elastic Rubber Tapes for Swimwear
DuraStretch elastic rubber tapes are used mainly as tunneled elastic in leg & arm openings, (covered by binding fabric) neck & waistband applications of swimwear.
Endless cycles of getting wet and drying out, the harsh sun, chlorine and other additives in the swimming pools, sun tan lotion… the swimwear faces many rigors through its usable life. And through it all, it is imperative that the insert elastics maintain a snug and comfortable fit through these rigors. DuraStretch elastic rubber tapes are able to withstand these harsh conditions and hence are favored by swimwear manufacturers worldwide in waist, arm, leg, neck, waist openings and shoulder strap applications.
