Product Information

Full details

This Stephanoise Double Sided Stripe Webbing Tape is for crafters and designers working on bag making, dressmaking, and accessories. Its key benefit is its versatility and durability, mimicking cotton's look with polyester's strength. A potential caveat is that it's sold by the metre, so ensure you order the correct continuous length for your project. This tape features a double-sided design with varying stripe thicknesses, is 4cm wide, and is made from strong, easy-to-clean, shrink-resistant polyester.

FAQs

What is the exact width of this webbing tape?

The Stephanoise Double Sided Stripe Webbing Tape is 4 cm (approximately 40mm) wide.

Can I get a continuous piece longer than 1 meter?

Yes, the webbing is sold by the metre. If you order a quantity of 2, you will receive a single continuous piece of 2 meters. The maximum continuous length depends on available stock.

What makes this webbing different from cotton webbing?

This webbing is made from polyester, which looks similar to cotton but is significantly stronger, easier to clean, and resistant to shrinking, offering better longevity for many applications.

Which side of the stripe should I use?

The tape is double-sided and features different stripe patterns (thick and thin) on each side. You can choose whichever side best suits your design aesthetic for a given project.

What kind of hardware fits this webbing?

The 4cm width is compatible with 38mm D-rings, strap slider buckles, roller buckles, and rectangle loops. It's always recommended to test fit your specific hardware.

How do I clean the webbing tape?

You can wipe it with a damp cloth for minor marks. For more stubborn stains, use mild soap and water, then allow it to air dry.

Will this webbing shrink if washed?

No, the polyester material is designed to be shrink-resistant, making it a reliable choice for items that may need occasional cleaning.

Troubleshooting

Webbing fraying when cut

Use sharp scissors or a rotary cutter for clean cuts. For synthetic materials like polyester, carefully melt the cut edges with a lighter or heat tool (test on a scrap piece first) to prevent further fraying.

Needle skipping stitches

Ensure you are using a sharp, appropriate needle (e.g., denim, leather, or microtex needle) suitable for webbing thickness. Check your machine's tension settings and consider using a stronger thread like polyester.

Webbing not feeding smoothly through machine

Check your machine's presser foot pressure. Increase it slightly if possible. Ensure the feed dogs are engaged and functioning correctly. A walking foot attachment can also help with even feeding of thick materials.

Colors appear different than expected

Colors can vary slightly due to monitor settings and dye lot variations. If exact color matching is critical, order a sample or ensure all required material is purchased in a single order.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This webbing tape requires no specific setup. It is ready to be cut to your desired length and incorporated into your sewing or crafting projects.

Compatibility:

  • Hardware: The 4cm (40mm) width is designed to work well with 38mm D-rings, strap slider buckles, roller buckles, and rectangle loops. Ensure hardware dimensions are checked for a snug fit.
  • Sewing Machines: Compatible with most standard domestic and industrial sewing machines. Use a strong needle (e.g., denim or microtex needle) and appropriate thread (polyester thread recommended) for best results.

Care:

  • Cleaning: The polyester material is easy to clean. Wipe with a damp cloth for minor marks. For tougher stains, use mild soap and water. Allow to air dry completely.
  • Washing: If incorporated into a finished item that requires washing, use a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Avoid high heat drying, as it may affect the material over time. Air drying is recommended.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain color vibrancy and material integrity.
