Want
to know more about the
"characteristics" of ripstop nylon?
Check out this great essay by North Cloth
representative, Brian Doyle.
Kites, Fabrics, and
Airfoils
What is a "second"?
In a nutshell. grade A is basically perfect.....
and D is "least" perfect. However, on a
roll of any grade it is quite possible that you
will see NO flaws at all..... Your chances of
seeing a flaw are just increased the further down
the alphabet you go. In all cases, if there is a
flaw at all it is "cosmetic" only. i.e.
creases, stains, varying dye, or even a smashed
fly. All cloth is usable and most often you can
cut around a blemish if present. We sell ALOT of
seconds and I can count on my left had the number
of times fabric has been returned. You'd be
surprised at how many kites are manufactured with
second quality fabrics... |
