Product overview

What is MX Type Metallic Yarn?

MX Type typically combines M-Type metallised film with two fine filament ends. In a balanced support arrangement, one filament may run clockwise and the other counter-clockwise around the metallic component.

Typical industry constructions include 20D × 2 or 30D × 2 polyester or nylon support yarns. These are reference options, not fixed Suvarnatantu specifications.
