EF002 · 4‑way Stretch Waterproof / UV Protection
Product Overview
EF002 is a lightweight woven fabric engineered for golf pants that require weather resistance and multidirectional mobility. The labyrinth construction combines 93% polyester with 7% spandex, producing a 138 g/m² material with a width of 57 inches. The yarn configuration (75D+40D)*(75D+40D)+75D with 86T×120T density forms a compact, smooth surface that supports water repellency and UV protection functions. The 4‑way stretch allows freedom in hip and knee flexion during swings, while the fabric's mechanical recovery maintains shape after repeated movement. As a manufacturer and exporter based in China, we supply EF002 in standard export packaging (carton + layer) with flexible shipping (FedEx/DHL/UPS/TNT for samples, air or sea for bulk). Lead time is 15 days for in‑stock items or 35‑40 days for production orders, with payment terms structured by order value.
Core Advantages
4‑Way Mechanical Stretch — Fabric expands in warp, weft, and bias directions, supporting unrestricted rotational movement.
Water Repellent Finish — Surface treatment reduces water absorption, allowing the fabric to shed light rain and moisture.
UV Protection — The fiber composition and construction provide a barrier against ultraviolet radiation, reducing transmission through the fabric.
Lightweight Build — At 138 g/m², the material offers coverage without adding bulk, suitable for active wear in moderate temperatures.
Abrasion Resistance — The labyrinth texture and 86×120 density support durability against surface friction from regular use.
Consistent Width — 57″ width enables stable cutting layouts and reduces waste in production runs.
Product Characteristics
Water repellency — The fabric is treated with a durable water repellent (DWR) finish that causes water to bead and roll off the surface.
UV protection — The material construction provides UPF 40+ protection, blocking more than 97% of UVA and UVB radiation.
Mechanical stretch — The labyrinth weave structure allows elasticity in four directions without relying solely on elastane content.
Moisture management — The polyester composition wicks perspiration away from the skin, supporting evaporation.
Dimensional stability — The spandex content (7%) contributes to recovery after stretching, maintaining garment shape.
Application Scenarios
EF002 is designed for golf trousers that face variable outdoor conditions, including morning dew, light rain, and sun exposure. The fabric's water‑repellent and UV‑protective properties make it suitable for:
Performance golf pants — offering weather resistance during early morning or late afternoon rounds.
Outdoor travel trousers — providing protection against light precipitation and sun while maintaining mobility.
Spring / autumn sportswear — balancing breathability with light weather protection.
Uniforms for outdoor professionals — where UV exposure and occasional moisture are common.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the waterproof rating of EF002?
The fabric is treated with a water‑repellent finish that provides resistance to light rain and moisture. It is not fully waterproof; for heavy rain exposure, additional lamination or coating would be required.
Q: What level of UV protection does EF002 offer?
The fabric construction provides UV protection with a UPF rating of 40+, blocking over 97% of UV radiation. Actual performance may vary with color and finishing.
Q: How does the stretch perform after washing?
The 4‑way stretch retains more than 90% of its original elasticity after 30 wash cycles under standard conditions (cold water, mild detergent). Air drying is recommended to preserve the water‑repellent finish.
Q: Can EF002 be custom dyed or finished?
Yes. EF002 is available in greige or ready‑dyed forms, and additional finishes such as anti‑static or enhanced water repellency can be applied upon request.
Q: What is the MOQ for EF002?
MOQ is flexible based on stock availability. Sample orders are accepted in small quantities via express; bulk orders are subject to production scheduling and minimum yardage.
Q: Is EF002 suitable for warm weather?
Yes. The 138 g/m² weight and breathable polyester construction allow air circulation, making it suitable for spring, summer, and early autumn conditions.
