Abstract
A composite cut-resistant yarn having a fiberglass and wire component a fiberglass core strand having a denier of between about 100 and about 1200 at least a first wire strand wrapped the fiberglass core strand in a first wire strand direction and at least a first non-metallic non-high performance fiber cover strand wrapped around the first wire strand in a first cover strand direction. The yarn does not include high performance constituents, yet is comparable in cut-resistance characteristics.
Claims18
A composite cut-resistant yarn comprising:
- a. a core including at least one fiberglass strand having a denier of between about 100 and about 1200;
- b. at least one wire strand having a diameter of between about 0.0013 inch and about 0.0030 inch and being wrapped around said fiberglass core strand;
- c. at least one non-metallic non-high performance cover strand wrapped around said core and wire strand, said cover strand being formed of material selected from the group consisting essentially of polyester, polyester/cotton blends, nylon, acrylic, wool, and cotton.
A composite cut-resistant yarn comprising:
- a. a core including at least one fiberglass strand having a denier of between about 100 and about 1200.
- b. two ends of wire strand, each having a diameter of between about 0.0013 inch and about 0.0020 inch and being wrapped around said core, one of said wire strands being wrapped in one direction and the other strand being wrapped in the opposite direction;
- c. two non-metallic, non-high performance cover strands wrapped around said core and wire strands, said cover strands being formed of material selected from the group consisting essentially of polyester, polyester/cotton blends, nylon, acrylic, wool and cotton.
A cut and abrasion resistant glove formed primarily of a composite cut-resistant yarn comprising:
- a. a core including at least one fiberglass strand having a denier of between about 100 and about 1200.
- b. two ends of wire strand, each having a diameter of between about 0.0013 inch and about 0.0020 inch and being wrapped around said core, one of said wire strands being wrapped in one direction and the other strand being wrapped in the opposite direction;
- c. two non-metallic, non-high performance cover strands wrapped around said core and wire strands, said cover strands being formed of material selected from the group consisting essentially of polyester, polyester/cotton blends, nylon, acrylic, wool and cotton.
