TPU Elastic Non-Woven Width: Roll Sizes and Slitting Options
Understanding TPU elastic non-woven width options — standard sizes, custom slitting, and converting considerations
Roll width affects converting efficiency, material yield, and logistics. TPU elastic non-woven width options range from narrow tapes to wide master rolls.
Here's what you need to know about width specifications.
Standard Width Options
Common roll widths:
| Width Category | Typical Sizes | Applications |
|---|---|---|
| Narrow tapes | 10-50 mm | Ear loops, elastic bands, sealing tapes |
| Medium width | 100-300 mm | Specific converting equipment |
| Standard width | 1.0-1.6 m | General converting, laminating |
| Wide rolls | 1.8-2.2 m | Maximum production efficiency |
Master Roll vs. Slit Roll
Understanding the difference:
- Master rolls: Full production width (typically 1.6-2.2 m). Best pricing per square meter, but requires slitting capability.
- Slit rolls: Cut to your specified width. Higher per-kg cost due to slitting labor and edge trim waste, but ready to use.
Yield calculation: When ordering slit rolls, consider edge trim waste. Slitting a 1.6 m master roll into four 400 mm rolls has minimal waste. Slitting into irregular widths may generate significant trim waste.
Custom Slitting Services
We offer precision slitting to your specifications:
- Width tolerance: ±1 mm for standard slitting; ±0.5 mm for precision requirements
- Minimum width: 10 mm (depending on material thickness)
- Multiple cuts: Single master roll can be slit into multiple widths
- Rewinding: Custom roll diameters and lengths
Width Selection Considerations
Factors affecting optimal width:
- Converting equipment: Match roll width to your machine specifications
- Product dimensions: Minimize cutting waste by matching width to your product size
- Handling capability: Wider rolls are heavier and may require specialized equipment
- Shipping efficiency: Optimize pallet loading with standard roll widths
