Standard round braided polyester cords with wire

DESCRIPTION

SERIE SF
When the cord is also part of the design, it should do more than simply hold the product: it should add presence, stability and a carefully finished look. This product combines the textile-like appearance of braided polyester with an internal wire that helps it hold its shape and allows the cord to be worked with greater precision.
Its shapeable structure makes assembly easier, allows clean fastening without the need for knots in certain applications, and helps the cord keep its shape during use. This makes it especially suitable for car air fresheners, decorative items, tags, promotional packaging and small products where every visible detail influences the final presentation.
With a diameter of 1.8 mm, it offers a good balance between discretion and functionality: it does not add unnecessary volume but provides enough body to improve handling and achieve a more stable, professional finish.

Technical specifications

As manufacturers, we develop technical textile solutions for applications that require precision, stability and a carefully finished visible component.

• Technical composition: Round braided product made of 55% polyester ±5% and 45% galvanised steel wire of 0.4 mm ±5%. This construction combines an outer textile-like finish with an internal shapeable wire structure, suitable for holding its shape and making small parts easier to handle. Available diameter: 1.8 mm ±0.1 mm.
• Behaviour: Its metal core allows the piece to be worked with precision, shaped and kept in the desired position once fitted. It is a useful solution when the product needs to pass through small holes, create defined shapes or achieve clean fastening without knots in certain uses.
• Customisation: This shapeable solution can be adapted to different projects through custom length, colour and type of ending or finish. This allows the piece to be adjusted to the final product design, the assembly system and the visual requirements of each application.

Applications and uses

Applications where a visible, stable and easy-to-assemble fastening solution is required.

• Automotive and vehicle accessories: Main application for car air fresheners. Thanks to its rigidity and shapeability, it makes the air freshener easy to fit or replace and helps keep it more stable while the vehicle is moving.
• Home and decoration: Ideal as a hanging air freshener support for wardrobes, interior spaces and decorative fragrance products. Its structure provides a cleaner presentation, with more body and a better finish than a fully flexible cord.
• Promotional packaging, gifts and e-commerce boxes: Suitable for cases, samples, promotional packs and e-commerce boxes where the fastening detail forms part of the product presentation.
• Tags and graphic arts: Used for tags, cards and samples that require a fine, easy-to-handle piece that can pass easily through small perforations.
• Merchandising and customised items: Suitable for corporate gifts, promotional pieces and customised products that need a visible, functional component that can be adapted to the brand design.
• Garment making, trimmings, jewellery and crafts: Application in garment making, trimmings, small accessories, decorative elements, costume jewellery, crafts and fashion jewellery. Its internal wire makes it possible to create shapes, ends or details with greater stability, while maintaining a carefully finished appearance in pieces where the visible part also matters.

Design

Available in grey and black, the most common colours for this type of application due to their versatility and ease of integration into different product designs.
Its outer polyester finish provides a textile-like appearance, with a carefully finished look and pleasant feel, while maintaining the strength and stability of the material. This combination makes it suitable for products where the cord remains visible and forms part of the final presentation.
For specific projects, custom colours, lengths and finishes can be considered, adapting the product to the aesthetic and functional needs of each application.

Endings and finishes

To adapt the product to different assembly and presentation processes, we offer different endings and finishes depending on the final application:

• Cut and pressed: Clean finish for pieces that require a compact and functional end.
• Film hook: Suitable finish to make cord insertion or assembly easier in certain pieces.
• Knotted ending: Option for applications where a traditional or decorative fastening is required.
• Tag knot: Finish designed for tags, packaging, samples and promotional items.
• Knot with washer: Solution for applications that require an additional fixing point.
• Custom-made endings: Adaptation of the cord in length, finish or presentation according to the customer’s needs.

Delivery formats

We adapt the supply according to the length, finish and assembly system required for each project.

• Pieces cut to size: Supplied in the requested length to make direct assembly easier in the final application.
• Pieces with incorporated finish: Product supplied with the required terminal or finish, reducing subsequent handling processes.
• Reels by the metre: Continuous format for customers who need to cut, adapt or assemble the product during their own production process.
