About this book

Elastic and Non-Elastic Narrow Fabrics is a comprehensive technical treatise that delves into the intricate world of narrow fabric manufacturing, with a particular focus on both elastic and non-elastic varieties. Authored by Samuel Holt and originally published in the early 20th century, this book serves as an invaluable resource for textile engineers, manufacturers, students, and anyone interested in the detailed processes behind the creation of narrow woven goods. The book meticulously explores the history, development, and practical applications of narrow fabrics, which include ribbons, tapes, webbings, and elastic bands. It provides an in-depth analysis of the machinery and equipment used in their production, such as looms, warping machines, and finishing devices. Detailed illustrations and diagrams accompany the text, clarifying the construction and operation of various machines and highlighting the technological advancements of the era. Holt covers the raw materials used in narrow fabric production, including cotton, silk, wool, and synthetic fibers, and discusses their properties, preparation, and suitability for different types of fabrics. The book also examines the dyeing, finishing, and testing processes that ensure the quality and durability of the final products. A significant portion of the book is dedicated to the design and structure of elastic fabrics, explaining the principles of elasticity, the use of rubber threads, and the methods for integrating elastic properties into narrow goods. Non-elastic fabrics are also thoroughly discussed, with attention given to their construction, uses, and the specific requirements of various industries, such as clothing, upholstery, and industrial applications. Throughout, Elastic and Non-Elastic Narrow Fabrics emphasizes practical knowledge, offering troubleshooting tips, maintenance advice, and insights into efficient production methods. The book stands as a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of textile manufacturing, providing a detailed snapshot of early 20th-century techniques while remaining relevant to modern readers interested in the foundations of narrow fabric technology.
