Some common questions:
Q: What is “hook & loop”? A: Many people call it “velcro,” but VELCRO® Brand is actually the name of just one brand of hook & loop—the brand founded by the original inventor of hook & loop fastening systems. There are many other brands available worldwide; WBC Industries carries VELCRO® Brand, Aplix® brand, and our own in-house brand. So when you call to place an order for “hook & loop,” don’t be surprised to hear “Would you like VELCRO® Brand or WBC brand?” in response! Q: Which side is the hook and which is the loop? A: Loop is the soft, fuzzy side, which is composed of hundreds of thousands of individual “loops” that the hook material grabs onto when the two are mated (put together). Q: Which hook & loop product should I use? A: In order to determine which type of hook & loop you need, you must consider the application it will be used for. More information is available on the individual product pages, and samples are available to order for testing purposes. Q: What is the minimum order? Are the two sides sold separately, or together? A: The minimum order is just one roll on most items. However, hook and loop are sold un-mated, which means that each side comes on a separate roll. Q: What are “Sew Quality” and “Pressure Sensitive Adhesive” hook & loop? A: Sew quality refers to hook & loop that does not have an adhesive backing; it is intended for applications that involve sewing the hook & loop to another material. Pressure-Sensitive Adhesive (PSA) is an adhesive that comes pre-coated on the back of hook & loop material. PSAs are considered a semi-permanent bond; they are not washable or dry-cleanable. |
