Hook and Loop Quality Control Measures

We manufacture custom straps at HookandLoop.com, and part of that process includes quality controls. There are lots of ways we make sure that the products you receive meet customer expectations. Specifications and tolerances play a role in determining if additional effort is needed, and that can include custom jigs, measuring fixtures, and random inspections of material throughout the manufacturing process. We're happy to do anything a customer wants done to ensure they're getting exactly what they want.

Die Cutting Hook for Patches

Everyone is familiar with patches. Lots of patches use the hook side of hook and loop fasteners to allow the patches to fasten to jackets, bags, boards, walls, and so much more. At HookandLoop.com, we die cut the hook to fit onto the backs of patches for several customers so they can sew the hook onto their patches.

Hook and Loop Variance and Tolerances

Hook and loop fasteners are a handmade fabric that is woven. Because of this, it does not fit into tight boilerplate tolerances a lot of drawings might require. Simply playing with the material might be enough to take these products outside of tolerances set by drafting software that is used to working with machined metal parts. Despite these limitations, there are still very reasonable tolerances and variances for hook and loop products.
