Stretch

By Textile Alliance

Updated 2026-11-11

Stretch is extension under load. The amount depends on fabric direction, applied force, construction, and elastic content.

What to Check

Specify load, time, and direction. Record recovery separately to distinguish extension from lasting deformation.
