Aglet with Powder Coating for Sportswear
This aglet is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The product spec is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the powder coating surface, the 38 mm Width and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps sportswear consistent across seasons instead of drifting with whatever the mill happens to have in stock.
The usual reason buyers come to us is not price. It is elastic that lost recovery after three washes, or a compliance document that arrived after the goods were already shipped. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
