X-PAC Fabric Technical Report | Tear Strength, Tensile Strength & Martindale Test

X-PAC Fabric Technical Report | Tear Strength, Tensile Strength & Martindale Test

Introduction

Material selection should be based on measurable performance data.
This report outlines the key physical properties of X-PAC fabric and their practical implications for bags and workwear.


Test Results

  • Tear Strength:
    Warp: 153N
    Weft: 133N

  • Tensile Strength:
    Warp: 300N
    Weft: 300N

  • Abrasion Resistance (Martindale):
    40,000 cycles — no yarn breakage


Performance Interpretation

Tear Strength

Values above 100N indicate strong resistance to tearing and help prevent small damage from expanding.

Tensile Strength

At 300N, the fabric performs reliably under load, making it suitable for structural components.

Abrasion Resistance

40,000 cycles places this fabric in a high durability category, suitable for repeated friction areas such as:

  • bag bottoms

  • straps

  • workwear reinforcement zones


Engineering Recommendations

  • Use in high-stress areas to extend product lifespan

  • Combine with reinforced stitching for load-bearing seams

  • Apply seam sealing for enhanced waterproof performance


Commercial Value

Using X-PAC fabric helps reduce:

  • product failure rates

  • after-sales issues

  • long-term replacement costs

At the same time, it supports premium product positioning in both bag and workwear markets.


Conclusion

With proven data in tear strength, tensile strength, and abrasion resistance, X-PAC fabric is a reliable material choice for high-end bags and technical workwear.
