Machine Selection:

The following can be used as a guide to braid machine selection:
Quantity of
Carriers in
Braider
Wire Bundle Range Diameter
Inches mm
24 1/4" to 1/2" 6.35 to 12.7
32 5/8" to 3/4" 15.8 to 19
48 3/4" to 1 1/2" 19 to 38.1
64 1 1/2" & Larger 38.1 & Larger

How To Estimate Amount Of Braid Yarn Required For A Harness
The following relationship may be applied:
Ø = Braid Angle L = Harness Length L' = Yarn Length

Total Yarn Length, L' = (# Carriers, N x Dia. Braid, D x 3.14) / (CosØ)
Pounds Req'd, W = (Total Yarn Length, Yds.) / (*Yds./Lb.)

*Yield - Braid Yarn
Vinyl 0.028 inches = 1,000 Yds/Lb.
Vinyl 0.040 inches = 550 Yds./Lb.

Example: L' = (16 x 1 x 3.14) / (0.71)

L' = 70.8 in. Yarn Per Inch of Braid

Cos 45° = 0.71

(70.8 / 36 in/yd) / 1000 YPP = 0.002 Lbs Per Inch of Harness
