ER342 · Double-Line Grid / Four-Way Stretch / Antibacterial
Product Overview
ER342 is a lightweight woven fabric engineered for outdoor performance apparel that require four‑way stretch, antibacterial properties, and moisture management. The 75D 0.2 rip‑stop wicking antibacterial four‑way stretch construction combines 88% polyester with 12% spandex, producing a 113 g/m² material with a width of 57/58 inches. The yarn configuration 75D/72F+40D*75D/72F+40D+75D/72F+40D*2 forms a double‑line rip‑stop grid structure that supports tear resistance and four‑way stretch. The polyester composition provides tensile strength and durability, while the spandex content (12%) provides four‑way mechanical recovery after stretching. The fabric is finished with a wicking treatment that draws moisture away from the skin, supporting evaporation during high‑intensity activity. An antibacterial finish reduces bacterial growth on the fabric surface, supporting freshness during extended wear. As a manufacturer and exporter based in China, we supply ER342 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
Four‑Way Mechanical Stretch — Fabric expands in warp, weft, and bias directions, supporting unrestricted movement during outdoor activities.
Double‑Line Rip‑stop — The reinforced grid structure provides tear resistance, preventing propagation of damage from rips or punctures.
Antibacterial Finish — The fabric is treated to reduce bacterial growth on the fabric surface, supporting freshness during extended wear.
Wicking — The construction draws moisture away from the skin, supporting evaporation during high‑intensity activity.
Lightweight Build — At 113 g/m², the material offers minimal weight, suitable for active outdoor wear.
Consistent Width — 57/58″ width enables stable cutting layouts and reduces waste in production runs.
Product Characteristics
Four‑way stretch — The mechanical stretch allows elasticity in warp, weft, and bias directions, supporting freedom of movement during outdoor activities.
Double‑line rip‑stop — The reinforced grid structure provides tear resistance, preventing propagation of damage from rips or punctures.
Antibacterial — The fabric is treated with an antibacterial finish that reduces bacterial growth on the fabric surface, supporting freshness during extended wear.
Wicking — The construction draws moisture away from the skin through capillary action, spreading it across the fabric surface for faster evaporation.
Recovery — The 12% spandex content contributes to the fabric's ability to return to its original shape after stretching.
Polyester composition — The 88% polyester content provides tensile strength, durability, and structural integrity.
Application Scenarios
ER342 is designed for outdoor performance apparel that require four‑way stretch, antibacterial properties, and moisture management. The fabric's protective and functional properties make it suitable for:
Outdoor pants — providing four‑way stretch and tear resistance for hiking and climbing.
Performance apparel — the wicking and antibacterial construction supports comfort during high‑intensity activities.
Travel apparel — the lightweight and antibacterial properties support comfort during extended travel.
Sportswear — the stretch and wicking construction supports movement and comfort during sports activities.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does the antibacterial finish work?
The fabric is treated with an antibacterial finish that reduces bacterial growth on the fabric surface. This helps maintain freshness during extended wear and reduces odor development.
Q: What is double‑line rip‑stop construction?
Double‑line rip‑stop is a reinforced grid structure with two parallel reinforcement lines at regular intervals. The grid pattern provides enhanced tear resistance, preventing damage from rips or punctures from propagating across the fabric.
Q: How does the wicking performance work?
The construction draws moisture away from the skin through capillary action, spreading it across the fabric surface for faster evaporation. This reduces cling and supports temperature regulation during activity.
Q: How does the stretch perform after washing?
The four‑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 antibacterial finish and fabric properties.
Q: Can ER342 be custom dyed or finished?
Yes. ER342 is available in greige or ready‑dyed forms, and additional finishes can be applied upon request.
Q: What is the MOQ for ER342?
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.
