Overview of VELCRO ® Brand Products and Definitions

Use this page as a guide to learn a little about hook and loop terms and industrial materials. Hook and Loop are sold separately on the roll - usually both sides are needed for most applications, so be sure order each side if needed when ordering.

COLORS - 16 colors are available in woven nylon

Standard material is on 25 yard rolls

Pressure sensitive material is on 25 yard rolls

90% of all applications use HOOK #88 (heavy dutyhook tape) and LOOP #1000 (napped tape)

If you have a specific application you need a VELCRO ® brand fastener for, and are unsure which product to order, please use our Recommendation Form.



Hook Side

The rough side of VELCRO ® brand fastener is made of hundreds of tiny flexible HOOKS.

  • HOOK 88 - The standard heavy duty hook comprised of over 400 hooks per square inch with 8 millimeter diameters, made of woven nylon. (Used in 90% of all applications.)
  • HOOK 65 - A lower strength hook with slightly higher cycle life comprised of over 300 hooks per square inch with 6.5 millimeter diameter, made of woven nylon.
  • HOOK 805 - A less expensive thinner profile molded hook for light duty applications. Will not attract lint.
  • HOOK MVA#8 - A very high strength molded hook with 180 "T" shaped hooks per inch.

Loop Side

The soft, fuzzy side of VELCRO ® brand fastener is made of hundreds of small, soft LOOPS

  • LOOP 1000 - The standard heavy duty loop, made of woven nylon, is designed to mate to all VELCRO ® hook. Considered "napped" tape, the loops are randomly oriented which offers greater holding power. (Used in 90% of all applications.)
  • LOOP 2000 - The "unnapped" loop tape with loops oriented in neat rows. This tape is slightly better looking but offers less peel strength.
  • LOOP 3610 - A less expensive knitted loop for light duty applications. Used with HOOK 805.


Adhesives

  • PRESSURE SENSITIVE (PS) - The adhesive type of VELCRO ® brand tape which has a peel-off backing. The tape is also sold under the STICKY BACK ® Brand name.
  • Adhesive 0172 - An acrylic PS adhesive used in most applications. This adhesive is the standard that comes on most tapes and has RED logos printed on the peel-off tape.
  • Adhesive 0115 - An olefin based PS adhesive with high strength but low temperature applications, and has BLUE logos printed on the peel-off tape.
  • 0140PRECOAT - This "dry" adhesive is pre-coated on the tape for later activation by ultrasonic sealing or with a solvent such as acetone. This is the tape to use in conjunction with liquid adhesive for a most secure bond.
