#7513 Water Jet WOVEN INTRLINING

Product Overview

It belongs in the heavier half of the ladder, which is exactly why buyers reach for it — a coat front or a jacket body has to hold a clean line without the finished garment feeling stiff on the wearer. Water-jet spunlace gives the base a tight, even weave with a matte surface. That evenness matters: the roll cuts cleanly, spreads flat on the table and feeds through a fusing line without wandering, so the bond develops the same way from selvedge to selvedge. If your press settings and face fabrics are already proven with a blended coating, this is the article to trial; if your line is set up for pure PA only, talk to us before moving a running style across. In the garment it goes behind the shell at collars, cuffs, front panels, pocket flaps and plackets on structured outerwear. It is not a garment lining cut as a separate inner layer — the interlining is bonded to the reverse of the shell so that shell keeps its shape, and the lining is sewn in behind it as its own component. Two shades cover most shells: off-white for pale and mid tones, dyed black where the face fabric is dark.

Base Fabric and Coating

Every roll starts as a 100% polyester web entangled by high-pressure water jets rather than chemically bonded. The result is a tight plain weave with a matte face and very little thickness variance — the quality that lets a press heat the panel evenly instead of chasing thick and thin patches. It activates under heat and settles into the weave rather than sitting on top of it, which keeps the fused panel flat and breathable instead of glossy and sealed. This is the detail to hold against your existing recipe: a blended coating can behave differently from a pure PA coating in the same press, so treat it as a material to qualify rather than a drop-in swap. The split is worth remembering when you compare suppliers. We run this article continuously in our own water jet interlining factory, so the weave and the coating weight stay consistent from roll to roll — the condition for holding one press setting across a season of deliveries.

Stable Performance and Production Benefits

A firm bond on a moderate build means the panel can be pressed at settings your line already runs, with a short dwell and without lifting the temperature to compensate for a thick glue layer — less energy per metre and less risk of over-pressing a delicate face fabric. On the line, the benefit shows up as rhythm. Panels come off the press flat and stay flat until they reach the sewing floor, so there is less re-alignment, less re-pressing and fewer puckered seams. Because the base is dimensionally stable, the same setting holds from the first roll of a delivery to the last. The defects that cost most in bulk — shifting under the press, bubbling at the fuse line, edge lift on a curved seam — are the ones this build is designed to keep out. A higher first-time pass rate at the fusing step is usually where the saving appears, long before anyone looks at the price per metre. Consistency across lots matters as much as the peak numbers, and it is settled at the water jet interlining factory rather than at the press. A standard press setting that behaves the same way on every delivery means the operator is not re-dialling the machine for each container, and a style approved on a sample behaves the same way in production. That balance is the whole point of the weight: heavier than the casual-jacket articles, well short of the construction weights, and firm enough that a collar stands up on its own. Shape holds through the wearer, not just through the fitting. A fused collar keeps its roll and a fused cuff keeps its edge after repeated wearing and cleaning, because the adhesive is anchored in the weave instead of sitting on the surface as a film that can lift at the edge. The structure bonds reliably to woven shells and to non-woven substrates alike, so a single article can serve several styles in a season rather than one. On the sewing floor a fused panel does not shift under the presser foot, so topstitching runs straighter and seams close without puckering. There is a practical gain for the buyer as well. Factories that currently run a 30–33 gsm article on some styles and a heavier one on others can often consolidate part of that demand onto this weight, which simplifies stock, sampling and press settings at the same time.

Structural Design and Compatibility

• Support balanced with flexibility. The build is engineered so the panel adapts to different face-fabric weights and to different line speeds without the fused area going flat or rigid. - A two-polymer coating that holds. The 100% polyester base and the PA/PES glue layer develop a firm bond and reduce the risk of glue delamination at the edges. - Uniform texture for clean cutting. There are no thick and thin bands across the roll, so the blade meets the same resistance everywhere and heat activation under pressing is even. - Woven and non-woven face fabrics. Both bond with this article, so a mixed schedule does not force a second interlining into stock. - Its place in the finished coat. The interlining sits against the reverse of the shell, between the shell and the garment lining, and is not visible from the outside when fused correctly. - Two shades that help inspection. Off-white and dyed black make it easier for an operator to see a missed patch, a crease or a glue skip during QC.

Use Scenarios

• Wool and wool-blend coat fronts. Fused to the front panel and lapel so the coat holds a clean break and a defined shoulder line.
• Casual jacket bodies. More support than a 22 gsm article gives, still light enough that the jacket does not fight the wearer.
• Pocket flaps, plackets and welts. Small parts that have to stay crisp and square after pressing and after the garment is worn.
• Collars and cuffs on outerwear. The areas that take the most handling at the edges and lose shape first when the interlining is too soft.
• Waistbands and front panels on structured skirts and trousers. Where a defined line matters more than drape.
• Workwear shell programmes. One interlining covering several styles and holding up on the factory floor.
• Workwear and uniform production. Collars, cuffs and pocket reinforcements on industrial garments, where the fused area takes repeated friction and tension. - Coats and structured outerwear. Fronts, lapels and plackets that must keep a defined line through a full season of wear. - Casual jackets and fashion outerwear. Bodies and detailing that need more support than the 22–33 gsm articles provide. - High-capacity lines. As a water jet interlining factory we cut this article for plants that fuse at volume and cannot absorb a change in behaviour between deliveries. - Automatic cutting and fusing. The 55 gsm build registers on a vacuum table and carries through a continuous fusing machine at production speed without curling at the edges. - Distributors and stockists. Buyers who hold a weight and shade range for their own customers rather than fusing in-house.
• On an industrial workwear programme the fused areas are exactly where a garment gives out first: the collar that will not stay standing, the cuff edge that softens, the pocket mouth that stretches out of shape. A 55 gsm fused panel gives those points enough body to keep their line through the working life of the garment while staying comfortable where it presses against the body. The production route is normally a continuous fusing machine. Uniform lamination across the panel is what a quality auditor looks at first, and it depends on the interlining activating evenly rather than in patches. This article's even weave and consistent glue weight are what make the bonded area look the same at the centre of the roll and at the selvedge. Cut planning benefits as well. A 150 cm roll fits standard markers for fronts, backs and sleeves, and the regularity of the roll means the spreader can lay multiple plies without fighting variation in width or thickness. Where a programme runs several styles on one interlining, staying with a single article removes a whole class of variables from the line — one press setting, one approval sample, one stock line to manage, and one behaviour to explain to the operators.

Embroidery Backing and Fusing Applications

• Machine embroidery backing. The fused panel holds its dimensions while the needle builds stitch density, so the design does not pull the fabric in around it.
• Appliqué and multi-layer work. A stable base keeps the placement of a layered motif accurate from the first piece to the last in a run.
• Light and medium-weight face fabrics. The structure bonds cleanly to lighter shells without leaving a hard ridge at the edge of the fused area.
• Manual and automatic embroidery workflows. It handles the same way whether the operator is framing by hand or running a multi-head machine.
• Stretch fabrics with a matching elastic interlining. Pair it with an elastic interlining when the base fabric has stretch, and the two together simplify the post-cutting steps.
• Size stability after fusing. A fused panel that stays flat is what keeps a hooped design aligned between the first piece and the thousandth.

Specifications

Custom Widths and Shade Selection

• Other widths can be ordered. Rolls at 1.0 m, 1.12 m, 1.22 m, 1.65 m and 1.8 m appear as order options; for anything outside that list, custom water jet interlining widths can be discussed with your sales contact. - Narrow rolls for small parts. Collars, cuffs and pocket flaps generate a lot of trim from a wide roll, and a narrower width cuts that waste on high-volume runs. - Wide rolls for full fronts. Where the marker is laid wide for coat fronts and backs, a full-width roll reduces joins and handling. - Off-white for pale and mid shells. It disappears under light face fabrics and shows defects clearly during inspection. - Dyed black for dark shells. It removes the contrast that can show along a seam or at a thin edge; a black-dot option also sits in the colour range, so confirm with us which face fabrics it is intended for. - Match against the shell, not the screen. Ask about swatches before a container commitment and check the shade under the lighting your QC uses.

Fusing Trial on Your Own Shell

1. Send your shell fabric and the shade you intend to run, so the swatch is matched to the actual face fabric rather than to a screen.
2. Cut trial pieces from the same end of the roll and in the same direction you will use in production.
3. Let the panel cool flat, then check the bond at the edges as well as the centre, look for glue strike-through on the face, and hold the shell in raking light to check for show-through.
4. Launder and dry a fused piece the way the finished garment will be cleaned, then re-check the bond and the surface.
5. Record what worked — press, temperature, pressure, dwell — and quote it on the order so a repeat delivery can be checked against the same standard.

Ordering and Delivery

1. Confirm the width and shade against your marker and your shell, including whether the black-dot option fits the style.
2. Raise any custom water jet interlining width at this stage so it can be scheduled with production rather than after the order is released.
3. Ask your sales contact about sample availability, current lead time and the terms that apply to your destination — these are set per order.
4. Stock available; shipped by the container. Plan call-offs at container level so the goods are released as a full shipment rather than roll by roll.
5. Confirm packing and labelling requirements with your sales contact before the goods leave.
6. Send your fused trial record with the order so the first delivery can be checked against the settings you approved.

Scale & Supply Capability

We are a manufacturer rather than a trading company: production, quality control and stock sit under one roof, and we supply buyers worldwide — mostly converters, garment producers and trade partners who resell or specify our interlining into their own programmes. Fast-moving articles are kept in stock, so container-level repeat orders can be released without waiting on a fresh production run. Custom grammage, width and private-label packing are available on request, and we will help you match the right article to your shell fabric before you commit to bulk.
