Braided elastic engineered for chlorine and bleach resistance to maintain stretch after repeated washes. This 10 mm × 2 m (3/8 in × 2.2 yd) size suits waistbands and swim or activewear where durability matters. Soft to the touch yet resilient, it can be stitched through or used in a casing for a comfortable, long-lasting hold. Compatible with most household sewing machines and hand-sewing methods; cut to length as required and secure with backstitching or bar tacks for durability.
