Denier is a unit of measurement applied to silk, rayon or nylon yarn. It is equal to the weight in grams of 9000 meters of the yarn. Generally, the higher the denier number, the thicker and more durable the resulting fabric will be.

Is 840 denier nylon or 420 denier nylon stronger?

Denier nylon is a unit of measuring the thickness/weight of a thinly spun fiber. It indicates the material's durability, plus the fineness of fiber filaments and yarns - both natural and synthetic. The higher the denier, the thicker the fiber; the lower the denier, the finer the fiber. per Wiki answer to what is denier.

Is dog carriers made of 600 denier polyester more durable that made of 840 denier nylon?

Nylon is more durable than polyester. Also, when comparing 840 denier to 600 denier of the same fabric, the 840 denier is thicker, rougher, more coarse and stronger than the 600 denier. So, on both counts, the 840 denier nylon is more durable. If you look at the following link, the tan soft dog crate is made of 600 denier polyester and the colorful soft dog crates are made of nylon.

Which luggage is more durable - that made of ballistic nylon or that made of 600 denier polyester?

The ballistic nylon will be a higher denier (thickness of the thread). Also will be shiny/glossy compared to the matte finish of polyester. Ballistic nylon will be much more durable and much less likey to tear or scuff. You can get higher denier polyester (900, 1200, 1800) which will be better for wear and tear. The price will reflect this however as 600d poly is low to mid price point whereas the others are higher.


Is 210 denier a polyester or nylon?

Denier polyester is fabric and the higher the number, the thicker and stronger it is. 210 would be thin like silk.


Is micro ballistic nylon stronger than 1680-denier polyester and nylon fabric?

Micro ballistic nylon is typically stronger and more durable than 1680-denier polyester and nylon fabrics due to its tightly woven structure and higher abrasion resistance. While 1680-denier fabrics are robust and commonly used for heavy-duty applications, micro ballistic nylon offers superior tensile strength and resistance to wear and tear. This makes it a preferred choice for high-performance gear and tactical applications.
