54 Yard Roll of FF-850 Fusible Interfacing Tape

Woven polyester tape with heat-activated glue on one side, pre-cut in a 1" width of our popular FF-850 fabric. It has a softer hand than our other fusible tape (here). One very popular use for it is in the seams of knits or stretchy fabrics, making it easy to acheive stable, flat, non-wrinkly seams! Each roll contains 54.7 yards (50 meters). 

Past generations of garment-makers were required to hand stitch a non-fusible cotton tape along the edges of garments to strengthen the folding lines, but now there's a choice: stitch by hand as before, or use an adhesive. We sell both options. (Use this fusible tape, or choose one of our non-fusible edge tapes.)

The glue becomes adherent when steam or a hot iron is applied. To use, place it with the glue side down on top of the fabric where you would like to strengthen it, and then press with a hot iron for about 10 seconds before moving on to the next section. (If using an industrial iron it may be only 5 seconds. If domestic, it may take a bit longer for the glue to fully adhere.) As with all fusibles, it's always wise to use a press cloth between the tape and the iron.
