This 80mm wide hook tape is woven with no selvedges, meaning the hooks run edge to edge for full coverage and a clean finish.
Its widely used in the manufacture of uniform badges for police, military, security, and emergency services, as well as in costume and theatre production. The VELCRO® Brand hook tape is typically sewn to the back of a fabric badge, allowing the badge to fasten securely to the loop tape on a uniform.
For a professional finish, both the badge and hook tape can be sewn together and edged using a Merrowed stitch with an overlock machine. This seals the edge and gives the badge its distinctive rounded border.
The 80mm width is a standard size for uniform badges, making this tape an ideal choice for badge makers and garment manufacturers. Its easy to cut by hand or machine to the required length, providing a simple, reliable solution for professional badge attachment.
