Cheese dyed nylon 6 textured yarn (dty)

Cheese dyed nylon 6 textured yarn (DTY) from Formosa Nylon is a partially oriented yarn processed to introduce bulk and texture, supplied in cheese form for direct use in weaving and knitting. The listing specifies denier options from 20 to 100, offering flexibility for light apparel fabrics through to heavier upholstery materials. The yarn is dyed at the cheese stage, ensuring consistent colour penetration and uniformity across batches, which is critical for large-scale production runs in fashion and home textiles.

The base polymer is nylon 6, a polyamide known for its high tensile strength, abrasion resistance and elasticity, which are further enhanced by the texturing process that introduces crimps and loops. Typical industry values for nylon 6 DTY include a tensile strength of 4.5 to 6.0 cN/dtex, elongation at break of 25 to 40%, and a moisture regain of 4.0 to 4.5%. The dye uptake is excellent due to nylon’s hydrophilic nature, allowing for vibrant and fast colours that meet standard colourfastness requirements for commercial textiles.

This DTY is primarily used in the manufacture of fabrics for apparel such as dresses, shirts and activewear, as well as home furnishings like upholstery, curtains and carpet yarns. Buyers typically source in bulk with MOQs aligned to production scales, and the yarn is packed in standard 10 kg or 20 kg cheese cones for ease of handling. Formosa Nylon’s Taiwan-based operation ensures logistics efficiency for Asian markets, with FOB and CIF terms commonly negotiated. Verification of exact denier availability, dye colour fastness test results and packaging specifications is recommended before finalising orders.
