Abstract

The aim of this paper is to investigate the influence of thermoplastic stitched reinforced tape location in the seam, on seam slippage, seam strength and seam efficiency. Seam samples without reinforcement and reinforced with fused tape were prepared. All the samples were prepared with 1.2 cm seam allowance. Samples reinforced with fusible tapes were produced using three positions of fixing fusible tape. The obtained results have shown that, with insertion of the thermoplastic stitched reinforced tape in seam structure, generally seam strength and efficiency are increased, while seam slippage decreased. In all investigated cases it was found that the difference in reinforced tape position in the seam, influences seams performance.
Key words: garment seams, fusible reinforced stitched tape, seam construction
