Spandex covered yarn is called SCY. This kind of yarn uses spandex as the core, and the outer fiber filaments are continuously rotated and wrapped around the spandex yarn that is uniformly drawn to form a yarn with twist. This kind of yarn is twisted, making the fabric style flat and crisp, which is its main feature. The quality of spandex covered yarn is usually better because it is more comprehensive in the covering process and there will be no leakage of yarn.
We can customize the covered yarn in different specifications and colors, welcome to contact us!
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is Spandex Covered Yarn (SCY)?
SCY is a type of yarn where spandex serves as the core, wrapped by outer fiber filaments (nylon or polyester) through a continuous rotation process. This creates a yarn that is crisp, flat, and highly elastic.
Q2: What are the main applications of your yarns?
Our yarns are widely used in knitting and weaving industries, specifically for producing high-quality socks, gloves, sportswear, and elastic fabrics.
Q3: Do you support customized colors and specifications?
Yes, we provide full support for OEM and ODM services. We can customize specifications (like 2070, 2075, 4075) and colors based on your specific requirements.
Q4: What is the difference between SCY and other yarns?
Compared to Air Covered Yarn (ACY), SCY (Single Covered Yarn) involves a mechanical twisting process which provides better coverage of the core yarn, ensuring no "leakage" and a more refined fabric texture.
Q5: Which materials are available for your covered yarns?
We primarily offer Polyester Single Covered Yarn and Nylon Single Covered Yarn in various filament counts (F) to meet different knitting needs.
Q6: Can I request samples before placing a bulk order?
We generally support providing yarn samples for quality testing. Please contact our team with your specific requirements for material and specification.
