Product Information

Full details

The Korbond Extra Wide Hemming Web is an essential tool for home crafters and anyone needing quick, professional garment repairs without the hassle of a sewing machine. Its primary benefit is providing a strong, permanent, and flexible bond for fabrics, making it ideal for hemming trousers, dresses, and heavy curtains. While it simplifies projects significantly, users must be careful to select the correct iron temperature to ensure the adhesive bonds properly without damaging delicate materials.

FAQs

Can I use this on delicate fabrics like silk?

It is not recommended for delicate fabrics that require low heat, as the adhesive needs a certain temperature to bond correctly.

Is it safe for tumble drying?

While it is machine washable at 40 degrees, avoid high-heat tumble drying as it may soften the adhesive bond over time.

How do I remove the tape if I make a mistake?

You can sometimes re-apply heat to soften the glue and peel it away, but it is difficult to remove completely without leaving residue.

Can I use this for repairing tears?

Yes, it works well for small tears by placing a piece of fabric underneath and bonding it with the hemming web.

Does it work on denim?

Yes, the Korbond Extra Wide Hemming Web is strong enough to bond heavier fabrics like denim.

Is the white color visible through thin fabrics?

It is intended to be hidden between layers, but it may be visible if used on very sheer or light-colored, thin fabrics.

Troubleshooting

The web is not sticking to the fabric.

Ensure your iron is hot enough to activate the adhesive. Try increasing the heat setting or applying pressure for a longer duration.

Adhesive has leaked onto the iron.

Unplug the iron and let it cool completely before gently cleaning the plate with a specialized iron cleaner or a damp cloth.

The hem is stiff or puckered.

You may have used too much heat or applied too much pressure. Always use a pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric to distribute heat evenly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly faster than traditional sewing
  • Extra-wide design handles heavy fabrics easily
  • Provides a discreet, professional finish
  • Durable enough for machine washing at 40 degrees
  • Versatile use for clothing and home furnishings

Cons

  • Requires an iron for activation
  • Can be difficult to remove if applied incorrectly
  • Not suitable for fabrics that cannot withstand high heat
  • Cannot be repositioned once the adhesive is fully set

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, ensure your fabric is clean and dry before application. Place the web between the two layers of fabric you wish to join, ensuring it does not extend beyond the fabric edge to avoid getting adhesive on your iron plate. Use a steam-free setting if necessary, and press firmly for the duration recommended by your iron's synthetic or cotton settings. Always test on a scrap piece of fabric first to prevent heat damage. For care, garments repaired with this product should be washed at temperatures no higher than 40 degrees to maintain the integrity of the adhesive bond over time.
