Structure and manufacturing Procedure
The 1000 Denier Cordura is generally made from dyed DuPont yarns which sometimes may be interspersed with other different fabrics for their versatility and also depending on their use. The yarn filaments are woven intricately into looped entanglements that helps create the final strong fabric. One side of the fabric is then coated with a urethane sealer called enduracote that gives the fabric its water repellent nature. The texturing of the fabric is done via an air jet process yielding a product that is highly resilient and resistant to abrasion. These coated fabrics come with a width of 60 inches, in a variety of colours that range from black, brown, burgundy to gold and purple including neutral prints. A square yard of uncoated cordura fabric generally weighs just 9.8 oz. while a square yard of coated cordura fabric weighs 11 oz.
