Voor fabrikanten van tactische uitrusting
This guide compares these materials across key factors to help you make informed decisions for your production needs.
Wat is X-PAC-stof? X-PAC is a laminated composite fabric designed for high-performance applications. Its multi-layer structure includes:
Buitenste laag : Nylon of polyester voor slijtvastheid. Middelste laag : A waterproof polyester or polyethylene film for weather protection. Binnenste laag : X-Ply reinforcement (cross-ply polyester or Vectran® threads) for tear resistance. This construction delivers built-in waterproofing, strong tear resistance, and a lightweight profile, making X-PAC suitable for tactical gear like backpacks, vests, and pouches where durability and weight are key considerations.
X-PAC versus concurrenten: Kritische eigenschappen voor fabrikanten We compare X-PAC to Cordura, Dyneema, and Ripstop Nylon across 5 key factors affecting production and performance.
1. Verhouding gewicht/sterkte Stof Gewicht (oz/yd²) Sterke punten Beste toepassing X-PAC (VX-21) 5.9 Scheurweerstand (X-Ply) Rugzakken, vesten, tassen Cordura (1000D) 10 Slijtvastheid Sterk belaste delen (riemen, voetplaten) Dyneema (SB51) 3.5 Sterkte/gewicht (UHMWPE) Snijbestendige uitrusting, pantser Ripstop Nylon (70D) 1.9 Lichtgewicht scheurweerstand Budget uitrusting, voeringen
X-PAC offers an excellent balance of low weight and high tear resistance, ideal for most tactical gear. Pair it with Cordura in high-abrasion areas for hybrid designs.
2. Waterbestendigheid en productie-efficiëntie Stof Waterdicht? Coatings nodig? Productie-impact X-PAC Ja (filmlaag) Geen Vermindert arbeid/kosten Cordura Geen PU/DWR Adds $3–5/yd in coatings Dyneema (DCF) Yes (select types) Geen Streamlined for waterproof designs Ripstop nylon Geen DWR Requires frequent reapplication
X-PAC and Dyneema Composite Fabric (DCF) offer built-in waterproofing, eliminating the need for additional coatings, which reduces manufacturing costs and defect risks compared to Cordura and Ripstop Nylon.
3. Duurzaamheid & conformiteit Stof Belangrijkste voordeel Naleving Zwakte X-PAC High tear resistance MIL-SPEC, IPX standards (configurable) Moderate abrasion resistance (improved in RX series) Cordura High abrasion resistance (ASTM D3884 ) Militaire certificeringen Zwaar, niet waterdicht Dyneema Snijweerstand (ISO 13997) NIJ-normen (pantser) Hoge kosten, naai-uitdagingen Ripstop nylon Kosteneffectief Beperkte certificeringen Lower durability
X-PAC can be configured to meet MIL-SPEC and IPX standards, making it suitable for contracts requiring certified tear resistance and waterproofing. Recent advancements, like the RX series, improve its abrasion resistance.
4. Kostenanalyse Stof Materiaalkosten/yd Arbeid/coatingskosten/yd Totale kosten/yd X-PAC $22-25 $0 $22-25 Cordura + PU $12-15 $3-5 $15-20 Dyneema $60-70 $8-10 (specialized sewing) $68-80 Ripstop nylon $6-8 $2-3 $8-11
X-PAC’s total cost is comparable to Cordura with coatings but offers simpler production and fewer defects. Dyneema is significantly more expensive, while Ripstop Nylon remains the most budget-friendly.
5. Beste toepassingen Stof Ideaal voor Vermijd voor X-PAC Waterproof backpacks, medical pouches, field-ready vests Uitrusting die extreem slijtvast moet zijn Cordura Rugzakbodems, MOLLE-banden, werkkleding voor zwaar gebruik Ultralichte ontwerpen Dyneema Ballistische panelen, snijbestendige handschoenen, ultralichte speciale uitrusting Productie van grote volumes Ripstop nylon Budget gear liners, lightweight covers Langdurig gebruik in het veld
Waarom fabrikanten voor X-PAC kiezen Ingebouwde waterdichtheid : X-PAC’s laminated film eliminates the need for PU or DWR coatings, reducing labor costs and the risk of coating degradation over time. X-Ply Scheurweerstand : The cross-ply reinforcement prevents tear propagation, ensuring gear reliability in mission-critical environments. Consistentie in de toeleveringsketen : X-PAC, produced by trusted suppliers like Dimension-Polyant , ensures uniform quality across batches, unlike generic ballistic nylons. Lichtgewicht ontwerp : At 5.9 oz/yd² (VX-21), X-PAC is nearly 50% lighter than 1000D Cordura, reducing shipping costs and improving user mobility. Sustainability : Newer X-PAC variants, such as those with recycled polyester, align with growing demands for sustainable manufacturing. Cordura also offers recycled options, but X-PAC’s streamlined production reduces environmental impact. Modern Manufacturing Advantages X-PAC’s composite structure is compatible with advanced techniques like laser cutting, which improves precision and reduces waste in production. This is valuable for high-volume orders requiring consistent quality.
